Ghostheads –
It’s my sad duty to confirm that, yes, Ghostbusters #20 is not only the final issue of our Mass Hysteria! event, but also of our current ongoing comic, as well. A variety of factors went into this decision and IDW will be saying something official soon, but please know that it was very difficult for everyone involved in the decision to bring our beloved ongoing GB series to an end.
That said, we do have a few BIG surprises in store yet, not the least of which is the magnificent ending Erik, Dan and Luis have put together for Mass Hysteria! It’s easy to look at decreasing sales numbers and think it’s a reflection of a monthly comic book’s quality, but when it comes to our Ghostbusters series, I can honestly say those numbers are an unfortunate anomaly because our book was only getting better and better with each new issue… story AND artwork!
So… if we gotta go, you can be damn sure we’re doing it in high, rockin’ fashion, folks!
You guys are the best! Thanks for all the spirited (yes, I said it) support throughout the years! This is the best editing gig I’ve been blessed to have in my career.
Your friend,
GB Editor
