Guesswork of my own: There's no doubt RGB Egon will survive, but I have a theory that the animated timeline WILL get screwed up in the most obvious way possible: Spoiler! |

Uh, where to start? First of all, I have to say that I like it and had a lot of fun reading it. It is important because I am going to write a bunch of things now that I did not like so much and I do not want anyone to think that I hated GBI 11. It was a good story, had a nice twist and a lot of funny lines (“Let’s not fight in hell, Janine!”) . Spoiler! But the loose ends and the questions make me look forward to the Annual. I hope we get some answers and aftermath dealing there. |

After some thought, I've decided not to continue buying and collecting these comics. I just can't stand that it has so much potential to be great, but it will never be great because then powers that be apparently won't allow character development between the charter members. I can't keep putting my money into something that doesn't deliver like I need. I feel like I can read about ghost battles all over the internet for free. That's not what drew me to buy the comic. I wanted legitimate character development from a licensed product. And no, this isn't just about Egon and Janine. It's ALL of them. Ray, Winston, Peter. Peter hasn't even dated. Just no. They can't just work as ghostbusters until they die. That is not sufficient for these characters, they deserve to have chances at happiness. If they break up it should be a normal reason on occasion, not supernatural all the time. I don't like DC and Marvel comic lines for the same reason. They never get to have relationships. Its like, if you want to be a hero, then you uhave to sacrifice EVERY thing else. That's dumb. Firemen get married and have kids, policemen get married and have kids. Soldiers get married and have kids. It is not unreasonable that a ghostbuster could too. And don't get me started on Janine. If I was the Janine in this comic, I would have spiraled into a depression I couldn't escape by now. All she does is work, pine for someone and put up with bs. That is NOT a life. All this book has done is make me feel bad for them all, they have no chances to be happy this way. Any of them. I'm done. |

I'm not sure I'm allowed to post images so I'm just gonna describe this as best as I can: OK, so, Aibell -bless her black heart, I love her even if she scares me- brings Egon back. Janine hugs him. She's in front of him. Right. Riiiight? BUT, come the panel where Aibell screams bloody murder -ba dum tss- Janine is suddenly and quite inexplicably behind him. A good couple of feet behind him and kneeling on the floor too. What I'm saying is EGON TOTALLY PUSHED HER BEHIND HIM TO SHIELD HER WITH HIS BODY AND I KNOW I HAVE NO PROOF BUT IN MY HEART OF HEARTS, THIS IS WHAT I BELIEVE. |

I saw your tumblr post and I CAN'T BELIEVE I NEVER NOTICED THAT AT THE TIME! I accept this headcanon. And that look on his face when she's hugging him. It's heartbreaking, like he was so wrapped up in his maths-solving heaven that he completely forgot about what made life lowkey worth living for him and the first thing he sees when revived is her! |

Agreed. For one, I keep thinking, you drag Egon away from solving equations, he's most likely gonna be at least a little ticked, right? But at the time he just seems so... it's like in his mind he's going trough billions of thoughts and while 'I NEED TO SCAN MYSELF I WAS DEAD LIKE A SECOND AGO' is up there in his priorities, there is also 'Oh...oh, damn, Janine'. I know I pester a lot about how the comics draw some parallels with the animated series but SRSLY, I keep thinking about how RGB Egon says her name in Ragnarok and Roll. Realization. Sorrow. Longing. All of it put together in ONE WORD. That's what I imagine going through his head at this point, like 'I was dead and I could have stayed dead and I would have never seen her again'. It's three parts wishful thinking, I know, but if the evidence, however small, is there...well, what else am I supposed to think? How else am I supposed to interpret it? Particularly when in the following scene it looks like whatever he was thinking stepped aside to leave place for 'OH CRAP, PROTECT THE WIFEY' as his priority. Additionally, the final scene of this arc feats him actually smiling and saying "It's good to be back" as they all leave the firehouse -right after there's a charming moment between Janine and Peter where she uses the phrase 'Don't make me brain you'- and I swear, for whatever reason it really catches my eye that they made emphasis on Janine on this scene. Almost as if they're trying to tell you she's one of the main reasons he's glad to be back I'm still not holding my breath for the IDW team to 'Make them official' or whatever, but they sure do seem to love their Janine/Egon and put it in there whenever they get the chance, even if it's subtle. |
