Erik Burnham mentioned the next #1 of a series with his name on it won't release until 2021. He didn't specify what comic it was but I guess brace thy selves after Year One #4 releases in July...

IDW issued a press release for it's releases May 27 to August 26. Year One #4 is confirmed to release on July 1. The Year One trade paperback's release is now to be determined (you can also see its TBD on Amazon). The 3rd Spectral Shenanigans TPB that was set for November is also now TBD on Amazon.

TF/GB took five months after the last issue came out. Same with 35th Anniv. So I would guess we'll see the Year One trade on December 2.

EDIT: Nope, I was way off. Year One TPB set for October 7 now.

That's pretty much my guess, too. And the IDW team did read the script last year, If I recall.

Third page: Wonder what happened to the Firehouse? I guess knowing Egon, seems something must been going on.

Post-Peck having the grid shut down, maybe Egon's trying to rebuild or stabilize the grid? Though the way Winston is warning Rebecca, maybe we'll see crazy beard Egon. lol.

Egon may have also been testing some new equipment developed in the winding down period after the Containment Unit blew, before he went to work at the university with Ray.

I think the latter. Her book is too thorough and the city saw a way to use the content in it to pin things on the Ghostbusters and sue them. But I did like

Interesting to me that the Retail Incentive cover has been changed. As of right now the original version is still up at Diamond's web site:
https://previewsworld.com/Catalog/FEB200707

It's been redrawn from a GB2 era version of Janine to a more RGB Season 1 looking one. Which I can't help but approve of.

Correct. And the GB2 mug was replaced with a regular coffee mug and a RGB Thermos was placed on the table. Lattie has said in the past he submits at least 2 versions and IDW picks. I guess some wires got crossed and Diamond put the wrong one in the solicit.

Yup, back when you just had to mail in three proofs of purchase.

Depending on what's to come in GB Afterlife, this last issue could probably lay the groundwork for it; especially since the movie centers around Egon for the most part. Guess well find out answers when it comes out next year.

I totally think is is an illusion to something in Afterlife. I already tweeted Burnham with a compliment & a question. Maybe he'll respond. (Its also coming out GB 1 showings will include something regarding Afterlife. All these day movements and alignments are either pure chance or Corps really trying to make something special out of this bizarre world situation.

Ghostbusters 101 came out about 9 month after the reboot, I wouldn't be surprised if they were/are working on a tie in story already. Considering the delay it might be kind of cool if it comes out at the same time as afterlife. I'm still wondering how they'll connect afterlife with the main comic story considering how the timelines don't work together.

I have to admit that that was the impression I got.

If it is, then that is very exciting to me! I guess that means Burnham does know details about afterlife, even though he said he didn't.

Now I'm suspicious that new comics are done, but CAN'T be released until after the movie.
