https://previewsworld.com/Catalog/JAN170460 Spoiler! Other than really wishing we could go back to adventures centered a little more on the five main characters instead of the constant stream of guest stars, I admit this should be interesting. |

It is! Especially since I found out that there's a comicbook shop near where I live! I just hope they carry it. |

I'd prefer a story that centers around the old team, too. But since I am glad that IDW continues the Ghostbusters Series at all, I'm happy anyway. I like the team from Ghostbusters 2016 and I am curious how the teams will meet. Spoiler! |

I have read the Annual. Spoiler! |

I read the Annual, too and I was a little bit disappointed. Not that the stories were not good but none of them was about the core team. I understand that it is fun for an author to create new characters, as a P&P-Player I feel that. The 101s seem to be cool, Mel is a great character. Except for the Rookie I really hate the Chicago Branch but that is my problem. Liking or disliking the new characters is not the point. The point is I started to read the comics because I like Peter, Ray, Winston, Egon and Janine and I wanted to read stories about them. Yes, the Original Ghostbusters were in the stories but in minor roles. If I remember correctly Janine was in 4 panels (one of them only showing her feet). I really really hope that this is not a trend and the focus will be on the old team again in future issues. Else I really might lose interest. Spoiler! |

Previewsworld preview. Egon seems to have acquired a taste for risks more bizarre than the last. |

Wow! Just...no! I already planned to skip this one, but wow! Why do they insist on making Egon look like a jerk? That was totally unprofessional and out of character. Unscientific, rude. Basically all things Egon is not. They have lost the concept of the character! |

I agree that this is not Egon. But: Punching Ray and PEEING in mood slime – this is so not Egon that it is almost impossible that any author – let alone Burnham - could do this accidentally. Maybe I am just telling that to myself because I want to believe it. But I really think that we witness part of the aftermath of Egon’s encounter with the warlock. Take a look at Egon’s face when Ray asks him “Can you feel it?” He seems to be in pain standing close to the positively charged slime. Isn’t it possible that he brought some negative energy with him after his trip to oblivion? Maybe he lied about what he experienced. Or his memories could be false. It was Aibell who brought him back who is not the nicest person (?creature, entity?) in the world AND she felt betrayed in the end. Spoiler! So maybe he does not act like Egon because he is not really Egon? Okay, he seemed pretty normal at the end of GBI but maybe this happens phased? As I said maybe I am getting it all wrong because I want to see it this way. But I really hope that his behaviour will be explained story-wise. Wow, writing an interpretation of a comicbook-preview. Yep, I need a life… |

Well we've been saying there was something wrong with Egon nearly this entire run, with no explanation, which makes me think this is just Erik's interpretation of him. |

I can't help but sorta agree. But this is a lot more outrageous than we've seen IDW Egon so far...supernatural cause? A weird kind of PTSD from his "death" in GBI? Quote: his is so not Egon that it is almost impossible that any author – let alone Burnham - could do this accidentally. And I can't help but sorta agree with this too. I guess I'm saying I can see it working either way. But I guess it's a sign of how beaten down we are in these parts that nobody's even wondered how the more "outrageous" Egon acts around a certain redhead. I guess we're all figuring that's probably not going to change. |

Fritz, it' obvious he doesn't associate with her at all, so how can he react to her... I officially bail on seeing anything happen with that in these comics. Oh how I watch the greatness that is the Lethal Weapon TV reboot and wish with all my heart that they would show the same kindness to gb84! |

I think it's the repercussions of his visit to the 'Other Side'. I doubt it'll last, but I actually like this unpredictable Egon. Sure makes things interesting. If it leads to him levelling out later on, mellowing down a little, becoming a bit less detached and a little more in touch with his human side, then I'm all for the wacky in the interim. ghostdiva wrote: Fritz, it' obvious he doesn't associate with her at all, so how can he react to her... I officially bail on seeing anything happen with that in these comics. I tend to agree. If GB: 101 is anything like the other comic runs they'll be avoiding each other the whole time so we won't get to see any reaction at all. I think the big draw for this run will be Egon and Holtzmann working together, while Janine will be probably spend most of her time working with the two Kevins and Cait and her friends. I'd be amazed if Egon and Janine manage to say one word to each other on-panel, now. That's how low my expectations for their relationship has fallen. |

I really liked this issue. Spoiler! I'm definitely getting extra copies for my nieces. It looks good so far. |
