IDW has sent out a new teaser poster for their upcoming Ghostbusters monthly (coming this September) – and unlike the last teaser, this one has the project credits at the top. Most of these guys have at one time or another done different jobs in the industry, but I’m taking a totally unofficial, unconfirmed stab at who’s doing what (with one exception.)
WRITER
Erik Burnham – writer on Ghostbusters: Infestation.
ART
Dapper Dan Schoening – artist of note
COLOUR
Luis Antonio Delgado – colorist on Ghostbusters: Infestation.
EDITOR
Tom Waltz – editor.
???
Tristan Jones – A nice surprise, for those that are familiar with Jones’ other comic work (TMNT), his art contributions to Cereal Geek, and his ongoing, spec Tobin’s Spirit guide over at GBFans. His part in the monthly comic is harder to speculate than the others. Back-up stories? Do the writers/artists alternate? Are they going to run his Tobin’s creature files? (shrug)
Sadly (and speaking of Cereal Geek Magazine), this highlights an omission, that of James Eatock, who, with Schoening, pitched themselves to IDW, were turned down, and then grassrooted themselves into a back-up holiday story in the IDW Ghostbusters TPB collection of their Ghostbusters issues.

Congrats to Erik, Dan, Luis, Tristan and Tom! You are ALL the “best in your row”!
Jim
how does one get this as a poster?
One asks IDW to make it, I guess.
If you dig Ghostbusters and you dig comics, you MUST put this on your pull list – it needs to do well right out of the starting gate for it to be able to continue.
Spot on there, Jim. Everyone NEEDS to go to their nearest comic shop and PRE-ORDER this. Add it to a pull list. The continuation of any comic series really does rely on the number of preorders it receives. Buying it off the shelf is great, but as far as numbers go, it’s all in the preorders.
Thanks for the support though guys!
This is definitely a day-one buy for me… I just love the man’s artwork and IDW’s commitment to finally bring us a monthly title is nothing short of amazing.
IDW, I’ll be there every month for every issue!
I will buy all of this.
I’m in love with this!!! I like Dan’s newer GB1 looking Janine a lot better… Also, his attention to detail is awesome! Egon with the collar up shows that he knows his movie… It’s always a pet peeve of mine when artists leave out the movie accurate details that, to me at least, make it so much more awesome (Peter never tucking in his boots, Ray smoking like a chimney, etc)…
And also, I would so buy like 50 copies a month just to help keep the comic rolling! Seriously!!! I’m in a band, I have no problem tossing the extra issues to audiences at gigs and stuff…
I really hope that James Eatock is going to be a part of this. The massive fan excitement over that unpublished pitch that he and Dapper Dan wrote up was surely instrumental in getting a monthly Ghostbusters series off the ground, so I hope that he’s brought on board at some point.
By the way, I like this Janine better than Dan’s other Janine, which is modeled after the later season RGB character. This one is part first season RGB Janine (the hair) and part GB1 Janine (the round glasses and collared shirt). I would have preferred if he went with the first season RGB Janine’s pointy glasses and blouse/skirt combo, but at least she’s (to me) better than his other Janine.
As others have remarked, I’m also a fan of this new design Dan’s created for Janine.
A great layout for a promo poster, perfectly evocative, and good to have an idea of the production team.
Yeah, ad me to the chorus that thinks this Janine is an improvement, taking her back to the looks she had at the peak of her characterization instead of the nadir.
And after Infestation, I think Erik Burnham is going to do well with this book.
