I was just wondering if anyone could help me. Does anybody know if the UK [Real Ghostbusters comic](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/comics) has been archived anywhere. It’s easy to find the Now RGB comics online either through [Archive.org](http://Archive.org) etc but I can’t find any trace of the Marvel one being archived. Any ideas on this?

I’m not aware of anyone bothering, that might partly be down to the fact it was a more frequently-published… making scanning the job lot more of a pill.

I’d love to see the comics scanned. They should be preserved, especially the more rare issues. As I said it’s easy to find the [Now Comics](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/uncategorized/ghostbusters-ii-now-comics) issues but the Marvel ones don’t seem to exist anywhere complete on the Internet.

Issue #17 of NOW [Real Ghostbusters](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/the-real-ghostbusters-activison) series actually has three stories that are reprints from the Marvel UK run. Last I knew the GB comic zone website had this issue in digital form. Also all of the [volume 2](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/real-ghostbusters/releases/complete-collection/volume-2) issues and the 1992 annual have UK stories in them as well. Finally Titan books put out some trade paperbacks from 2005-2006, their are four of them in all and of the included stories look amazing.

I bothered, lol. I have been bothering with for a couple years now to get as many as I could. Still not finished, but it is complete enough to share. I have 1-185 except 163 and 179 which I will get sometime in November when a friend returns from the UK with some additional copies I had to ship to a mutual friend. I have a dropbox link hosted on my webpage. A pill is an understatement, lol, It takes about 20 minutes to scan an issue, so it is time consuming, but totally worth it to get them preserved. I have some other friends that are working backwards from 192 to help complete the run, someday there will be a full 1-193 here. I will update when I add anything to them:

Enjoy!

I should probably update this with the news that the full 193 are digitally alive and well at the link above. A lot of work and a lot of collaboration went into that I can’t thank everyone who helped enough. I am also still looking for hard copies of 188-193 to fill out my physical collection, but for now this is the best we got! Enjoy!
