About the author
Erik Burnham
687 books74 followersErik 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.

The likenesses are understandably off, and it was weird starting with the focus on Winston until I realized each GB was getting his own issue in the collection, but the stories mini-stories work well and it wisely doesn't get bogged down rehashing the films. Hopefully they get to do more.

Aunque es un cómic motivado por la película de 2020, sé que los Cazafantasmas se han prodigado bastante en el ámbito comiquero. Por lo cual este "Año Uno" no se recibe con tanto recelo. Aunque sí que es cierto que se queda corto en el pretexto argumental por parte de Erik Burnham de arquitramar una especie de antología de "historias nunca contadas" por parte de los Cazafantasmas originales en su primer año de actividad laboral espectral (o previa en su época universitaria) aunándolo con unas entrevistas por parte de una periodista que se documenta para escribir un libro sobre estos singulares personajes. Esto es mera excusa por parte del autor y todo queda en unas historietas ciertamente decentes (aprovechando también bastante de los cameos ilustrados de los personajes de Sigourney Weaver, Rick Moranis y otros secundarios del film original) y en el que el estilo hiper cartoonish de "peinados roblox" funciona ciertamente bien.
