hey,it the subway ghost.

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-21-2004, 12:29 AM

Jeez...could they have any MORE cover varients?! Mmmm...Egon...

*Wes* · 03-21-2004, 12:32 AM

Why do they all look like alcoholics?

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-21-2004, 12:37 AM

You'd drink too if you had their job.

*Wes* · 03-21-2004, 12:39 AM

Probably!

I'm drinking as it is. We've graduated to corn liquor in Diet Mountain Dew, folks.

Why is there a new Ghostbusters comic, anyway? And does anyone remember Extreme Ghostbusters? I kinda liked that show.

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-21-2004, 12:43 AM

Was that the second cartoon series? I never saw that one. Just the movies, and the first cartoon series. My neighbors and I used to play Ghostbusters and Indiana Jones. Of course, I owned a bullwhip. Never owned any cool Ghostbusters stuff.

*Wes* · 03-21-2004, 12:51 AM

Well, there was "The Real Ghostbusters", then "Slimer and the Real Ghostbusters", and then yeeears later (I think I was in high school when this one came out) they had "Extreme Ghostbusters". That was the one where they had a bunch of teens -- a goth girl (so you can guess why I liked it), a guy in a wheelchair, and two ethnic minorities (neither of which was very interesting, but only Eduardo was really stereotypical) -- led by Egon, who still lived at the firehouse alone with Slimer. Oh, and Jeanine still worked there and still had a crush on him after all those years. I always liked Jeanine. Lucky Egon.

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-21-2004, 12:55 AM

I always had a thing for Egon. (Guess I like the nerds, it would explain my love of Carl Sagan.) Hmmm...sounds kinky...weird little threesome...

*Wes* · 03-21-2004, 01:06 AM

I always liked Egon too -- not in the movies so much, but definitely the cartoon character. I loved that twirly thing they had his hair do. When we played Ghostbusters at recess (back in second grade; wow that was a long time ago), I was always Egon. And I never understood why nobody else wanted to be Egon -- they'd bicker about who got to be Ray and Peter and Winston, but I never had any competition for Egon's role. Go fig.

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-21-2004, 01:08 AM

I think I always made my own character. You know, the 5th Ghostbuster...5th mutant (cat, not a turtle). Such is life when you're not the gender of your favorite cartoon characters.

*Wes* · 03-21-2004, 01:10 AM

What about April and Jeanine? Or Dana, for that matter? THERE IS NO DANA, ONLY ZOOL!!!

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-21-2004, 01:13 AM

I never really wanted to be the one getting rescued, I wanted to do the rescuing. Its just not the same thing. Though now, as an adult, I can certainly appreciate the appeal of being "abducted" and tied up.

Bloody hell...

And April (at least later in the Archie comics, and certainly in the Genesis game) could hold her own in a fight, and Jeanine eventually became a full-fledged Ghostbuster in the cartoon, didn't she? I can't remember any episode specifics, but there are toys where she's got the suit and the proton pack and everything.

*Skeletoncrew* · 03-21-2004, 01:26 AM

Well, I never read the Archies, and I never saw those cartoons. Good for them. Guess I just always had to do my own thing. Labyrinth was one of my favorite movies, I dressed up as the Goblin Queen one halloween. Didn't want to be little miss whiny, wanted to be the one with the power.

*Wes* · 03-21-2004, 01:28 AM

Still haven't seen that movie, but I guess I should, given that I've got something of a crush on our Jennifer... She was great in Dark City.

Meira-Bates · 03-21-2004, 08:11 AM

I always liked Egon too. O.o Lately I'm discovering more and more brains I've liked and it's starting to out number my other favs. X.x

LAXtitan99 · 03-21-2004, 09:42 AM

OMG!

Ghostbusters return as well...my wallet can't afford this.

When will these comics be out?
