November, actually Rob.

Banner says October, Ben.

Hey folks, my first post here.

I'm one of the moderators at IDW's message boards, thought I'd stop by and share the solicitation info with you:

Ghostbusters: The Other Side #1
Keith Champagne (w) • Tom Nguyen (a) • Nick Runge ©

Egon Spengler! Ray Stantz! Winston Zeddemore! Peter Venkman! The original Ghostbusters return in an all-new, four-part Ghostbusters story from IDW! Writer Keith Champagne (Green Lantern Corp, The Flash) is joined by artist Tom Nguyen in this new Ghostbusters saga. When the Ghostbusters capture a group of ghostly crooks, they unknowingly run afoul of a gang comprised of the spirits of some of America’s most legendary gangsters. Dead or alive, the mafia knows exactly how to deal with a problem like the Ghostbusters: rub ‘em out!

FC • 32 pages • $3.99

I'd also expect a more formal announcement at some point during Comic Con.

November, actually Rob.

The image posted from Comic-Con says “October 2008” Ben. I think you're getting confused with all the merchandise coming out. It's RGB that's coming in November.

You're right… so many new items and release dates got my brain frazzled.



Welcome, Dr Stantz… I don't suppose you know if they have plans to produce a ongoing series if the Other Side miniseries does well.

Well, if the series does well, anything's possible.

So tell all your Ghosthead buddies about it! :-) As mentioned here earlier, the property is in good hands.

Oh, that I have no doubt of. After what happened with the comic from 88MPH Studios, to hear that IDW is doing the comic is like a godsend. We know this miniseries will be published on time, or with only minor delays, and if a ongoing series after the first four issue miniseries is greenlit, then barring a event of the unforseen, will also be published.


And I cannot wait to see some previews of the interior art.

I do hope that the comic is also available in comic stores in Holland. and like kingpin said, I also would love to see some art.

I am only wondering what happened with the hard cover from 88mph…

Best regards,

Robert

Believe me, IDW will have everyone here saying “88mph who?” in no time.

Also, IDW could also have gotten the rights to previous publications too. They may even be able to reprint the classic RGB stuff from Now Comics, or maybe even Legion.

Thats not a guarantee mind you, but it's something they're doing with Transformers, G.I. Joe and Star Trek, so it's possible.

Now THAT would be awesome..

And the heavens just keep opening up. Thank you Dr Stantz for you input. That's more than we received from 88mph Studios, as it's owner was never honest with the fans.

The word's out!
