Dark Horse Comics has released a first look photo for fans to check out that gives us a peak at the upcoming comic Ghostbusters: Back In Town, which serves as an in between story that will lead up to the upcoming film Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire.
ScreenRant shared that Ghostbusters: Back in Town is a four-issue miniseries written by David Booher, with Blue Delliquanti providing art, colors by Mildred Louis, and letters by Comicraft’s Jimmy Betancourt. Kyle Lambert will provide the main cover with a variant cover created by Steve Morris.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021) and the upcoming sequel writer Jason Reitman shared the following statement about the comic:
“Our friends at Dark Horse have picked up the Spengler family and hand delivered them to Manhattan where they will begin their journey back into Ghostbusting! It has been a personal thrill to collaborate with this incredible group of artists and storytellers on new chapters in the proton jungle.”
Set after Ghostbusters: Afterlife, the comic miniseries sees Callie, Gary, Trevor, and Phoebe moving to New York City to take over the Ghostbusters business in the iconic Firehouse. But shifting family dynamics and paranormal activity may make it a harder job than it sounds.
“While Ghostbusters: Afterlife introduced this new iteration of the Ghostbusters team, Ghostbusters: Back in Town will give fans a greater look at the new dynamics of the family-based squad. Gary and Callie are seemingly taking a big step in their relationship, no doubt potentially causing some friction with Callie’s children Trevor and Phoebe. Not only is the makeup of the family changing, but they’re moving to where it all got started for the original Ghostbusters: the beloved Firehouse. There are going to be some big changes by the time Frozen Empire releases, and Dark Horse Comics’ new miniseries should give fans everything they need for when the new film debuts.”
Ghostbusters: Back in Town will give fans an idea of what the cast of characters was up to in the months between entries while setting the stage for the next exciting chapter in Ghostbusters history.
Ghostbusters: Back in Town #1 is on sale March 27th from Dark Horse Comics. Check out the teaser photo below, and let us know if you’ll be picking up this comic series.
