Dark Horse Announces "Ghostbusters: Back in Town" Comic
Tumblr media
Dark Horse is releases in 4-issue Ghostbusters comic book series taking place between the events of the Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire films. Ghostbusters: Back in Town hails from writer David Booher, artist Blue Delliquanti, colorist Mildred Louis, and letterer Jimmy Betancourt of Comicraft.
"A year and a half after the events of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, the Ghostbusters are officially back in business and headed to where it all began: New York City! Callie, Gary, Trevor, and Phoebe are moving into the Firehouse and ready to take on the Spengler family business…or are they? Ghostbusting on top of changing family dynamics has a way of going awry––and that’s exactly what one paranormal force is counting on." (Dark Horse)
Ghostbusters: Back in Town #1 (of 4), featuring a main cover by Kyle Lambert and a variant cover by Steve Morris, goes on sale on March 27, 2024.

Quote
Is it fair to see Governor DeSantis’s attempts to police the contents of the College Board’s A.P. curriculum in African American studies in classrooms in Florida solely as little more than a contemporary version of Mildred Rutherford’s Lost Cause textbook campaign? No. But the governor would do well to consider the company that he is keeping. And let’s just say that he, no expert in African American history, seems to be gleefully embarked on an effort to censor scholarship about the complexities of the Black past with a determination reminiscent of Rutherford’s. While most certainly not embracing her cause, Mr. DeSantis is complicitous in perpetuating her agenda.

An absolute powerhouse, and I like to think was probably a shoulder for judy garland to cry on. Always appears as the comedy foil, but was a total looker in her early years, just didn't conform to Hollywood's beauty standards.

Spoiler-free Ghostbusters Back in Town: Issue 1 Review:
Tumblr media
Taking place a year and a half after Ghostbusters Afterlife, this mini series bridges the gap between the previous film and Frozen Empire. We follow the Spenglers as they move to the Firehouse and adjust to life in New York.
Highlights include:
Soft, cute art style! Props to Blue Delliquanti, Mildred Louis, and Cris Peter. I really like the simple drawings for the human characters, while the ghosts still look appropriately gnarly. A vast improvement over the IDW style, in my opinion. (No offense to Dan Schoening, I'm sure he's a wonderful fellow, but some of his stylistic choices were... questionable.) -
Very small acknowledgement towards the Ghostbusters reputation in New York, for anyone who's interested in that. -
More interactions between the Spenglers and insight into their lives that the movies have sorely lacked. I understand a movie has only so much runtime, but that's all the more reason why spinoff material like this is important! We get to see the family talking to each other, along with Phoebe and Trevor adapting to their new schools (less than successfully). The brief sibling moment after is cute. -
In addition to the Spenglers, we get a little bit of dialogue between Phoebe and Podcast, and Trevor and Lucky via texts. They miss each other! Besides them, we also see some more with Janine and Winston. We learn a little bit more of how they're helping the Spenglers and some more of Winston's influence around the city. There's also a small glimpse of a certain bookstore owner at the end! -
Little details in the background and nods to other films, new and old. You'll be able to spot them easily if you just look close. -
Funny dialogue, nothing gut-busting but it did put a smile on my face. The characters inform the comedy and it works well. There's a few lines in here that made me wonder how no one thought to include jokes like them in GB material before! -
Great use of foreshadowing throughout the comic to hint at the coming threat. The theme is insects, which is a clever choice considering the Ghostbusters share plenty of similarities with exterminators. There appears to be a villain controlling them and using this to drive the family apart. We already see some arguments between the Spenglers as they struggle to capture the big creature at the end of the comic. A wicked strategy, how will it play out? Overall, I enjoyed this! It's a simple story, but it's only the beginning, and already offers us a lot that the movies couldn't. I highly recommend to any fans of the modern GB era!

Rewind the Tape —Episode 1
Art of the episode
During our rewatch, we took note of the art shown and mentioned in the pilot, and we wanted to share. Did we miss any? Do you have any thoughts about how these references could be interpreted? How do you think Armand and Louis go about picking the art for their penthouse in Dubai?

The Fall of the Rebel Angels
Peter Bruegel the Elder, 1562
This painting is featured in the Interview with the Vampire book, and it was important enough to be included in the draft pilot script!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bruegel the Elder was among the most significant Dutch and Flemish Renaissance artists. He was a painter and print-maker, known for his landscapes and peasant scenes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion
Francis Bacon, 1944
Bacon was an Irish figurative painter, known for his raw, unsettling imagery and a number of triptychs and diptychs among his work. At a time when being gay was a criminal offense, Bacon was open about his sexuality, and was cast out by his family at 16 for this reason. He destroyed many of his early works, but about 590 still survive. The Tate, where these paintings are displayed, says this about the work: "Francis Bacon titled this work after the figures often featured in Christian paintings witnessing the death of Jesus. But he said the creatures represented the avenging Furies from Greek mythology. The Furies punish those who go against the natural order. In Aeschylus’s tragedy The Eumenides, for example, they pursue a man who has murdered his mother. Bacon first exhibited this painting in April 1945, towards the end of the Second World War. For some, it reflects the horror of the war and the Holocaust in a world lacking guiding principles."

Strawberries and Cream
Raphaelle Peale, 1816
Peale is considered to have been the first professional American painter of still-life. [Identified by @diasdelfuego.]

Iolanta
Pyotr Tchaikovsky, 1892
The opera Louis and Lestat go to was composed by Tchaikovsky, another gay artist. The play tells a story "in which love prevails, light shines for all, lies are no longer necessary and no one must fear punishment," as put by Susanne Stähr for the Berliner Philharmoniker.
Tumblr media
On the Hunt or Captain Percy Williams On A Favorite Irish Hunter
Samuel Sidney, 1881
The unidentified painting on the right might be from the same hunting series, though we couldn't identify the exact one. There's also a taxidermy deer, ram, and piebald deer on the wall. [Identified by @vfevermillion.]
Tumblr media
The Artist's Sister, Melanie
Egon Schiele, 1908

George Wesley Bellows, 1909
Bellows was an American realist painter, known for his bold depictions of urban life in New York City. [Identified by @vfevermillion.]
Tumblr media
Mildred-O Hat
Robert Henri, undated (likely 1890s)
Henri was an American painter who studied in Paris, where he learned from the Impressionists and determined to lead an even more dramatic revolt against American academic art. [Identified by @nicodelenfent, here.]
Starry night
Edvard Munch, 1893
Munch was a Norwegian painter, one of the best known figures of late 19th-century Symbolism and a great influence in German Expressionism in the early 20th century. His work dealt with psychological themes, and he personally struggled with mental illness. [Identified by @vfevermillion.]
If you spot or put a name to any other references, let us know if you'd like us to add them with credit to the post!
Starting tonight, we will be rewatching and discussing Episode 2, ...After the Phantoms of Your Former Self. We hope to see you there!

What movies would you recommend for good examples of period costumes?
Ok since I could talk for literally hours about this I’m going to stick to periods that are show adjacent or relevant otherwise I’ll be here all day.
18th century (Lestat’s time):
Barry Lyndon (1975) - takes place in the 1760s throughout Europe so a little before Lestat’s time but honestly fashion changed very slowly back then so it’s pretty much the vibe we’re gonna see in s3 I believe. I think this is essential to understanding the period’s masculinity as it features mostly men and is also not about romance. You also get to see class differences in men’s dress as the character starts off in a very different social position from where he ends up. I also think Sam in his Lestat get up from set leaks looks sooo much like Ryan O’Neal in this movie I think it will be a major inspiration.
Dangerous Liaisons (1988) - this is pretty much smack dab in the middle of Lestat’s human life (pre-revolutionary) and it’s one of the few romantic dramas that actually allows its leading men to look period accurate cause somehow Hollywood decided calves and stockings were too gay for their leading men who usually show up to dinner parties in riding gear which would NEVER happen. Anyways I also think the character of Valmont is probably another big Lestat influence.
I also think movies like Amadeus (1984) and The Favourite (2018) are helpful in establishing to viewers that men did look ridiculous back then with big ass wigs and face caked full of makeup and it was not considered gay or unmanly!!
Gilded Age / Edwardian and beyond (Louis’s time):
The Age of Innocence (1993) - takes place in the 1870s so again a bit before Louis but I think now it’s important to establish that fashion trends are moving a bit faster as you’ll see a few decades later the big ass bustle look is no longer on trend but this is just a beautiful film to look at if you want a good intro to film costuming.
The trio of Merchant-Ivory’s EM Forster adaptations: A Room with a View, Maurice and Howard’s End are nice examples of early 20th century wear and again you finally get to see more class differences in dress. Also great references for men’s wear.
Daughters of the Dust (1991) - this takes place in Georgia around 1902 so getting quite close to the start of the show and it has absolutely gorgeous design like it’s the women’s silhouette so spot on. Good reference for the costumes on black women in the show. Also I think this is one case where the flowy down do’s hair in a period film isn’t anachronistic cause of the specific story they’re telling otherwise I’m usually like why are you an adult woman walking around outside with your hair down.
Passing (2021) - takes place in 1920s New York and features really lovely b&w cinematography and costuming wise it’s a really beautiful representation of upper middle class black families of the time and also has very interesting contrasts with the white upper class. Amazing book too, I highly recommend both.
For periods beyond 1930 I actually recommend just watching films from that era cause they give a more accurate representation of what was fashionable then not filtered through today’s beauty standards. For example the thin penciled eyebrow is almost never seen in modern period films cause no actress wants to shave off their eyebrows 💀 and their hair is almost always too long cause they don’t wanna chop off their hair.
Here are some good fashion recs of 30s-40s:
Trouble in Paradise (1932), It Happened One Night (1934), The Awful Truth (1937), Imitation of Life (1934), Notorious (1946), Mildred Pierce (1945), Gilda (1946), Orphee (1949), and a bunch others you can ask me for recs based on more specific criteria and I’d be happy to provide!
Also a film that’s a bit past the show’s timeline is Paris Blues (1961) starring Sidney Poitier and Paul Newman that’s also about American expats in Paris and it’s very good, everyone watch it.
