It was indeed phenomenal.

Yes, I loved the fact that they didn't kill off Draverhaven completely. For some reason, I don't like it at all when villains are killed off - sometimes you need it, but for the most part, it makes the comic very dark if there's a lot of death (or even a little bit) in the story. Besides, Draverhaven wasn't maliciously evil, just a little nuts.

Toaster! Welcome back my man! :-O

Correct, had Draverhaven not been driven mad by the forces of darkness, he wouldn't have done what he did.

Hey Ben!

And replace “a little nuts” with “completely and utterly insane”, quoted from Egon.
That's right, I've already begun quoting it around my friends and family…

(*ray) I've gotta agree with everyone so far,the artwork is just wow godawesome. Ive read each comic of the series a good 4-5 times, and its just so amazing how well they captured that dry comic wit that is expected with Venkman. Like in #1 when winston asks “how come no one wants to have my baby?”……and venkman responds “they miss the mustache man”…lol classic Venkman right there. The story was great also, and besides the wait I have no complaints about the series. This can only lead to good things I think. I feel so optimistic…like venkman and ray with that bottle in GB1 talkin about startin the whole franchise…

But I think I recall having read Egon saying something like “Make sure the proton packs are charged up” and I don't get that. I know the proton packs from EGB have to be charged up, but since when did the originals have to as well? Didn't he say in the first movie that they have a half-life of 5000 years?

Proton Packs have a 5000 Year Half life if left unusued… in fact, let's let my good friend Vincent Belmont explain:

It has come to my attention that there is a misunderstanding of some stuff about the Proton Pack, and I think that the fact list should be updated.

The point of misconception is the use of the word “HALF-LIFE.”

“It's been a few years since we used this stuff…think it still works?”

“It should…the power cells have a HALF-LIFE of 5000 years.”
~Peter Venkman and Egon Spengler, GBII

Most people think that you can fire a proton pack for a hundred years, and it will never run out of energy. This is NOT so. You may have a nuclear accelerator on your back, but it is not a power plant.

The term “Half-life” refers to how much time a battery (or whatever) can sit on a shelf unused, and still be able to function properly. It also refers to how many times it can be recharged and reused before it just refuses to work anymore.

A dictionary definition would be: “The time required for half of the atoms of a radioactive substance to become disintigrated by natural processes.”

The proton pack can be theoretically unused for 5000 years, and be able to work if you picked it up again and switch 'er on.

The actual firepower that the proton pack can muster on a fully charged cell would conceivably be 10 minutes of continuous fire at its maximum setting before you would run out of energy.

Also, think about this one….if the pack can fire continuously for 5000 years…why the hell would we be charging $500 for “Proton Charging?”


I think that's everything…
