The first trade paperback of the exciting new series based on the successful movie and cartoon show, The Ghostbusters: The Other Side features all-new tales of everyone's favorite spook hunters. The only thing worse than getting on the bad side of gangsters is capturing the ghosts of some of the most historically notorious figures in organized crime. And when you upset the spirits of the mafia, you better be prepared to go to the mattresses. But when the Ghostbusters find themselves in Purgatory, they need to find a way out, and fast, before they end up spending an eternity in Hell!

Nice solid read! Great addition for any truly enthusiastic GhostHeads who are looking to expand their collection or delve deeper into the lore.

They're back

I assume this new series of Ghostbusters is in honour of the 25th anniversary of the original film which is fine by me. This tpb has an interesting idea but ultimately it doesn't really flesh it out well enough. Some of the characteristics of the films are there but ultimately it felt a little flat. Maybe I was expecting too much from it.

Ghostbusters in Pergatory - What the....?

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2013

This is something that should be locked in a vault, and never seen again. The writing is poor - full of holes in the plot - and the illustration is dull at best. I felt like I was reading a nightmarish school assignment, forcibly turning from page to page to the end. Nothing really happens; everyone spends a lot of time talking about the same thing over and over while Peter turns into something of a superhero in the mid-way stop to the afterlife. That everything that happens could be engineered by the villains presented is ludicrous. And I was not a big fan of what brought Egon, Ray and Winston to Peter's side; I'll just be juvenile: it sucked. The quick save at the end was beyond contrived. Just skip this one and read "Displaced Aggression", a far superior GB comic with a great storyline. As for The Other Side: yeaachh!

A rather poor attempt

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2011

The Ghostbusters were mysteriously absent in the world of comic-books for about 20 years. Since end of the Real Ghostbusters run with Marvel there had been so sight of them until IDW printed 'The Other Side'. Why IDW and not Marvel? Because no self-respecting publisher would dare publish this junk.

The story has the Ghostbusters killed by Gangster ghosts and sent to purgatory were they have to sneak out. And that's it. The artwork, while cartoonish, is bland. The color schemes are dull, unpleasing and unstimulating. There's no excitement, no big confrontation, and very, very little of it makes sense.

For hardcore fans of the paranormal eliminators only, and even they will have a hard time finding any reason to go back to this. A complete waste of time.

Not as well-written or clever as it should have been.

Reviewed in the United States on March 18, 2010

This story involves the Ghostbusters getting caught up with the spirits of old/famous/real mobsters who have decided to put the Ghostbusters out of business...permanently...dun dun dun. Well this is a fun story to read once or maybe even twice but ultimately falls short. It has the feel and humor of both the feature films and the animated series but it isn't as clever or as funny as it should have been. In fact the whole thing is pretty odd. After how great the four part Legion series and the Comic-Con one-shot exclusive The Zeddemore Factor that were both published by 88mph comics I was really hoping for something at least as good, but alas I was a little disappointed. This is not an awful book by any means, but it's not great either. Just good. If you are a huge GB fan like me you will most likely enjoy it...somewhat.

BLAH

Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2012

I was really excited when I picked this up, and really disappointed when I put it down. I didn't care for the gangster theme, or the artwork style, but there it is and there's nothing we can do about it. DO NOT let this turn you off of the rest of the other Ghostbuster series. There are better ones out there! Pick up Displaced Aggression or Ghostbusters volumes one and two! They will knock your socks off!

Not great but worth a look

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 29, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is slightly better than 'Displaced Aggression' but not quite as good as the ongoing IDW series or 'Legion'. Still, it's got an interesting premise and has enough good points to make it worth a glance, particularly if you're a fan of Ghostbusters comics. I wouldn't start my collection with this, though.
