Ghostbusters Volume 5: The New Ghostbusters by Erik Burnham

3.0

I had no idea there was a Ghostbusters comic series, until I was browsing my local library sale, and the second I saw ladies on the cover I knew I had to own this. Regardless of what volume it was, I wanted to get a glimps of the new movie coming out. While I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with the movie coming out, seeing ladies capturing ghosts--and refusing to dress down for it--was brilliant just the same.

The comics really capture the essence of the guys in brown running around with giant vacuuming cleaners on their back and blowing stuff up, as well as the clever lines that I grew up loving. Seeing their snarky secretary take over after the guys get abducting was hilarious and well done. She was great and now I wanna try to get my hands on the next volume (as well as the previous 4) to see what they're going to do with 8 ghostbusters!

Definitely a must-read for fans of the movies (even just the first one like me; I haven't seen the second) as well as newcomers. It's hilarious and you don't even have to have read a single volume before hand.
