About the author

Erik Burnham is a Minnesotan writer and artist that first broke into comics with a series of humorous short stories in the Shooting Star Comics Anthology. These stories featured his original creation, Nick Landime, and culminated in a one-shot: Nick Landime vs. the World Crime League, published by Shooting Star in 2005.

Off and on, in this same time period, Erik also produced a short run of an online strip, The Down Side, until technical issues wore him down. He aims to return to the strip one day.

In 2007, Erik found produced work for two other anthologies – a short humor piece for History Graphics Press’ Civil War Adventures #1, and a horror story for Gene Simmons’ House of Horror #3, produced by IDW Publishing.

This lead to several other projects for IDW, up to and including his critically acclaimed run on the ongoing GHOSTBUSTERS comic book.

Erik has worked on other projects not related to comic books, and hopes one day to share those with the public at large. In the meantime, he still lives quietly in Minnesota; any rumors about this being because he’s completely afraid of the forty-nine other states (and Canada) remain unverified at this time.

Now this part of the graphic novel really does reach back to the first film! Gozer has sent a new form of a demon to follow through with what Ray screwed up in the film by thinking of the Stay Puff Marshmallow to end the world, this new demon has made it clear that he will now succeed where Ray and the Ghostbusters had caused Gozer to fail for the first time ever in history.

More plot unfolding with the Gozer plotline. This one had more exposition than action.

Following up on the videogame story line, it features all the quirks you'd expect from the characters. Worth a read if you're a fan of the franchise.
