I'm pretty sure I was the first to lobby for the inclusion of Dana Barret on the old “It's Coming!” thread. So let me do so again. Dana needs to be in this title. She's the piviotal character in both films! The story opportunities for an off again/on again relationship with Venkman are too good to pass up. Imagine it, Peter meets a new hot babe on a case, and a few weeks later Dana walks back into his life. This could lead to all kinds of sexual tension that has tremendous comedic potential.

i hope im not the first to notice that the central event in each movie that “got the ball rolling” happened to her. (Zuul in the fridge, slime in the sidewalk) Without her who knows what would have happened

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the comic supposed to take place right after the first movie? If that's the case, Peter and Dana would be dating for at least some amount of time (however unspecified). If that's the case, perhaps the comic will show the relationship evolve, then break down.

After all, the RGB episodes were only 22 minutes each, and were action pieces targeted towards the Saturday morning cartoon crowd. They were going to focus more on ghost busting, not character development elements as a romance or dealing with a break-up.

As for GB2, I would like to see some elements of it added to the comic (Vigo, Oscar, Janosz, mood slime, Slime Blowers) since I would consider it more of the “official” events, but at the same time, I don't think four out of work Ghostbusters would make for a very interesting comic. Perhaps cheat and revise the history just a little bit.

All in all, though, I'm looking forward to this comic.

Thats very true. Considering the comic takes place directly after the movie, and 88mph studios would like to keep the comic as much like the original movie as possible. So there will be a good chance of us seeing her in the new comics.

a VERY good chance.

As I stated earlier with Vinz are you hiding some knowledge of the book that we don't know? …Hmmm…tell us.

Tell us Lady Jay. Tell us.

Like I said earlier, in a different post, it seems as if Lady Jay is very involved and possibly part of the ghostbusters creative team that was anounced recently.
