Digibusters Ectozone

ECTO-ZONE

One of the greatest movies of all time was Ghostbusters. It was followed up with one of the greatest cartoons of all time, The Real Ghostbusters (one of the most successful Movie-to-TV translations EVER). The mix of comedy, horror, and weird science was white-hot in the Eighties, and still maintains a loyal fan following to this day!!!

The Ectozone is a member of the GBComm, the Ghostbusters community! Created by Brian Reilly, a contributor to the Ghostbusters Omnibus Timeline. Check it out!!!

Starting this fall, 88MPH Studios will be publishing a brand new Ghostbusters comic book, a "reboot" of the concept set during and just after the first movie. Go to 88MPH Studios.com or Proton Charging.com for more details!

The Ghostbusters Omnibus

Everything you didn't even know you were afraid to ask.

Ghostbusters Omnibus Timeline

The Ghostbusters Fact List

Kingpin, a contributor to the Omnibus Timeline, has compiled the definitive guide to the Ghostbusters; the tools, the talents, and even their shoe sized (well, okay, maybe not their shoe sizes...but that's not too far away from what's actually in there!)

Get on the ground floor of the new comic book!

Doc Fritz's Fan Fictions

My own take on the Ghostbusters. Some of my own creations aren't this much fun to write!

1964

Fateful Encounter
Egon Spengler goes on a little trip to the 1964 World's Fair, and in the Mort Weisinger tradition has his "true" first meeting with someone of no small significance to him! Inspired by a scene deleted from Ghostbusters

1983--Year One

Ghostbusters.

Ghost Stories
A mock news article about the debut of the world's first Professional Paranormal Investigators and Eliminators, a slice of the kind of press the Boys in Grey got when they burst onto the scene

1984--Year Two

Real Ghostbusters Season One; all of the ABC episodes and half the syndicated

1985--Year Three

Real Ghostbusters Season One--second half of the syndicated episodes

Real Ghostbusters Season Two

1986--Year Four

Real Ghostbusters Season Three

Illogical Reaction
Or, you could also call it: "Robo Buster, the Missing Scene"

Future Shocks
The Ghostbusters of the 21st Century are contacted by a mysterious being, telling them that a time traveller with a malevalent agenda has recruited a familiar and much-despised face to his crusade. Can they stop these two twisted men from destroying the original Ghostbusters--and thus wrecking all of history?

Several lawsuits, some having meandered in court since the Gozer crisis of 1983, come to bear all at once and the Ghostbusters accept an injunction against acting as paranormal investigators. Egon returns to research, Venkman becomes host of World of the Psychic, Ray opens an occult book shop, and he and Winston begin to appear at kids parties in Ghostbuster costume

1988--Year Six

Ghostbusters 2

Real Ghostbusters#1-2

1989--Year Seven

Terror on the Jersey Turnpike
Ray's soap opera addiction! Venkman gets up early at 11 AM! Oh, yeah, and there's a biker punk from hell in there, too. Being the Ghostbusters, we mean that literally...

Invasion of the Danish Snatchers, Part One
Egon and Janine's date is interrupted by the arrival of a crew of obnoxious gremlins who terrorize the Chateau Ritz restaurant. The rest of the Ghostbusters arrive to help out, but soon discover a teeny problem...

Continuation of the above. You think I'm gonna spoil any surprises? Hah!!!

Shadow of the Inquisitors
(Not yet written)

The Zodiac Imperative
(Not yet written)

Late in 1991 or in early 1992 the Ghostbusters again break up, apparently quite abruptly and acrimoniously. Venkman goes to Hollywood and tries to shop around a concept for GB3, but the project dies when he and Dan Aykroyd can't convince Bill Murray to come aboard. Ray becomes a used car salesman in Colorado after a lab accident gets him kicked out of Stanford. Winston becomes a commuter pilot in Montana. Egon becomes a teacher, and watches over the Containment Unit.

Watch this spot for more details as I get'em!
