Start the Presses… Please!

Very few things are able to dig me out of the pile of work I’ve had the past couple of months, hence the lack of updates. However when the names Schoening and Eatock hit the news, I listen! gbdan-eatock-cover

Dan Schoening, the amazing artist responsible for our banner artwork, and James Eatock, the creator of Cereal Geek Magazine  joined together in 2009 to submit a Ghostbusters comic pitch to IDW Publishing.  Sadly the pitch was denied and we’re only left to wonder why ?

IDW has already published four sets of Ghostbusters comics, 2 mini-series and 2 one-off comic specials, all were well received and have sold well according to the local comic shops in New York City.

All the recent chatter about a third Ghostbusters movie once again has The Ghostbusters becoming a daily topic in the mainstream news. Fans both old and new are taking interest in the online Ghostbusters community sites such as ProtonCharging.com and GBFans.com, two sites that have really kept the Ghostbusters fan base alive for many years.

With an ever growing fan base, an existing comic and multiple toy lines all selling well, one may ask, perhaps now is the time for IDW Publishing to reconsider and take another look at the amazing artwork and storyboard presented by Dan and James?

The incredible 15 page pitch is available for all to see over at Dan’s deviantART site: HERE

After you’ve read through the pitch you may want to give IDW a friendly reminder and ask… maybe beg? for them to reconsider working with the right team for the job!
