Product Description

Product Description

Kicked out of university for their unorthodox methods, scientists Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz and Egon Spengler decided to go into business for themselves. Together they formed a company specialising in paranormal investigations. Now, along with Winston Zeddemore, they protect New York from the supernatural - as the Ghostbusters! It's six months after the defeat of Gozer (seen at the end of the first Ghostbusters movie in 1984!) and the boys are back at work doing what they do best. But if things seem a little slow, a blast from their past will soon change all that...Featuring exclusive background features and a gallery, this brand new graphic novel packs more spine-chilling thrills and spills than you ever thought possible!

5.0 out of 5 stars Re-booting the franchise., 22 Jan 2006
By Mr. M. A. Sainsbury "marksbros6" (Oxford) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ghostbusters:Legion is kind of a reboot for the franchise, modernising it somewhat. Although set 6 months after Gozer's attempted destruction of Earth (the events in the first Ghostbusters Movie) it is clearly set in the present day (references to Cameron Diaz, the internet and other pop culture figures are evident). Some tinkering with the GB timeline has obviously taken place, and I don't know how it will tie in with events in the second movie. Whatever the reason the 'Modernising' of the story setting is welcome, and breathes fresh air on what's kinda been a stale franchise.

On to the story. All the characters are spot-on, and even 'peripheral' ones like Janine Melnitz (Ghostbusters ever-loyal secretary) get some development. The story itself is well paced, showing the reader how the team are getting on, and dealing with their new-found fame. Without giving two much away, it involves a figure from Ray, Egon and Pete's past (from before their days as Doctors at the university) and the problems that ensue from his return.

It's more of a grown-up story than the old cartoon and comics, aimed at the 20-somethings that remember them from the first time around. It's witty, gripping and engaging by turns, and there are some nice nods to the old comic books and the merchandising from back when Ghostbusters were the coolest thing on earth.

P.S.

Also includes a bonus story of Winston's first bust.
