Issue 1 of Ghostbusters: Displaced Aggression has land at your local comic shop today! And it looks like Cover A either changed or a third cover was added.
A look inside the first issue confirms the original cover is still being produced, plus two alternate covers – the Ghostbusters standing over the New York skyline on black with Anniversary logo and IDW titling, and the same with just the art. That issue is included as an incentive cover for retailers that buy a certain amount and is referred to as either the “incentive” cover or “virgin” cover. My shop was selling it for $10.
IDW Publishing

(A) Ilias Kyriazis“Go West, Young Veckman!” In chapter one of this all-new Ghostbusters adventure, the ‘Busters have been defeated by the pan-dimensional demon lord Kozar’Rai — Father of Gozer — the villain has separated them across the time stream!
Dr. Peter Venkman is trapped in 1886, and his only chance to return to present-day Earth and free all of humanity from the Rule of Kozar’Rai has him teaming with a very unexpected (and very beautiful) ally!

Just ordered mine through Graham Crackers. I hope it’s better then The Other Side…
@shodanmark it definitely is!
This is absolutely better than The Other Side… not that that takes much, but yea… its very good.
i’m gonna wait until this comes to hardcover or at best paperback but it’s good that it’s being more recognized than that crappy other side story of last year.
This is more in line with what I’d hoped the GB comics would be like! Shawn, you really ought to pick up the individual issues — waiting for the trades isn’t always the best thing to do, because if the single issues don’t sell, then there’s no incentive for it to be collected. If the comics were older and hard to find then I’d be telling you to get the trade, but you should help the sales while they’re important!
Thanks for the reminder Chris!!!!!
Go west young VECKMAN???
Sorry for the third post. But the villian is Kozar’Rai — Father of Gozer? Frickin’ SSSSSWWWWWEEEEETTTTT!!!!!
Has anyone found the Mystery cover of Ghostbusters: Displaced Aggression in comic stores?
Question about the incentive cover: I just ordered it from Graham Crackers. While it shows the picture above the info states:
Written by Scott Lobdell
Art by Ilias Kyriazis
1 in 10 Incentive Cover By Nick Runge
Where as the info for the regular varient cover is:
Written by Scott Lobdell
Art by Ilias Kyriazis
Cover By Ilias Kyriazis
That would seem to suggest that it’s not the same cover picture, but if Chris picked up his incentive cover in the store, it could just be Graham Crackers that is mistaken.
just got back from my local comic shop and picked it up, the only cover they had left was cover B, which was good cause that’s the one i wanted.
alright trist you convinced me i’m heading to bulletproof right now.
hey all well i stoped by comic shop in my neiborhood and they had both A and B covers and they only had 2 copies so i bought,em both!!!! And 3 GB magnets!!!!!! ssshhyeeaaah lol!!!!!! i missed the last 2 copies of the other side so thats why am so happy!!!!!! plus i like the new Ghostbuster girl and her GB uniform!!!!
has anyone else heard anything about problems with this in the UK?, my local comic store has said there are licensing issues which are stopping it being imported.
its fun being a european GB fan.

My comic shop in Germany has told me that it’s notgoing to be available here either, seems to backup what you’ve been told. Rather peeved was looking forward to this.
