Hey, Venkman turned out better than I’d remembered. (:

(I’ve misplaced the original art and forgotten some of the details - only had an unfinished pic of it until this post… so thanks!)

I’ve REALLY gotta track that down…

Nice work! I’m sure working on this stuff was a blast.

Well, as old and decrepit as the Venkman zombie may be, I still put 'im up for auction on eBay. (;

At the risk of being ridiculed, who is the handsome rotting chap in the Kyle Hotz sketch seen below?

I _think_ that it’s Venkman, but it’s kinda hard to tell with him being so disheveled and rotting. When I first saw that sketch, in part, on one of the cover images IDW gave out (which was eventually used as the [cover for the Infestation Sketchbook](http://ryalltime.wordpress.com/2011/03/10/the-infestation-sketchbook/)), I wasn’t sure if it was a Ghostbuster or not. You didn’t see the whole pack, and since it looked like an ascot around his neck, I instantly thought it was Shipwreck, the Navy guy with the parrot from G.I. Joe.

[UPDATE - Nevermind. According to IDW chief [Chris Ryall](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/publications/comics/chris-ryall), based on his [naming of the file on his site](http://ryalltime.wordpress.com/2011/03/12/infestation-sketchbook-art-2/zombie_winston_hotz/), it’s Winston.]
