Ghostbusters Volume 7

This ongoing GB series is superb. If you're new to this you NEED to go to the beginning and get all the previous volumes or even treat yourself and get the hardback Total Containment book that collects the first four volumes in glorious oversized book format. The last volume had a disappointment for me as Doc Shaner took on the bulk of the pencil duties as Dan was on some kind of hiatus or something. Normally Dan does the bulk and other artists chip in for the bonus stories. For me Dan being present or absent is a big deal. What makes this continuation of the franchise so successful for me is the team efforts of Erik Burnham's writing, Dan's pencil work and designs and Luis Delgados vivid colour work (in addition to Tristan Jones on P.C.O.C. story duty) plus the bonus of mini stories with other artistic interpretations (but still Erik's writing). Doc Shaner's art was perfect for a mini story but his style in the previous volume was just not Dan. This volume continues to develop the sense of a building event around more seemingly minor busts. Key characters introduced in previous volumes get to be more involved as well as Eduardo from Extreme GB getting added to the franchise nods (I hope Roland and Garrett get a future story). The easter eggs for fans are still there. I consider myself a HUGE fan but am sure there are plenty of easter eggs the guys drop in for the hardest of hardcore fans (seriously the guy who played Slimer in GB2 got a cameo in a previous volume). Brilliant!

Great content as usual from idw. Great story and artwork

More of the same action as the previous volumes. Nothing really special story-wise but visually they are a supreme feast. Great otherworldly looking entities and astonishing colours.Like all of these TPB’s it is only four issues and it feels hard to justify full price for such a low page-count.Thumbs Up!
