WHILE THEY'RE ALREADY ensconced in the Ghostbusters' iconic firehouse in the upcoming Frozen Empire, new comic series Back In Town begins with the Spenglers having just relocated from Oklahoma to the Big Apple.
"The great part about Back In Town is that it kind of straddles both existing and new parts of this world," says writer David Booher. "It's set between Afterlife and Frozen Empire and it follows the Spenglers now that they're back in New York. But we've gotten the freedom to tell a standalone story, so you'll see hints of the movies and you'll also see fun new ghouls and new facets of the Spenglers."
"What I found particularly interesting was the way the new series was reintroducing New York City, which was such a fundamental element of the original films," adds artist Blue Delliquanti. "But because these characters aren't familiar with the city or the firehouse the way the original crew was, I tried to treat those settings as worthy of a reintroduction."
