 Hey guys, welcome back to Comic NTV the only place on YouTube where all geek culture collides I'm Shannon and today on the show. We're taking a look at Tobin Spear guy the official Ghostbusters edition Now what we got here are the hardback and the paperback I ordered both of them on Amazon and I got the paperback first and then just the other day I got the hardback and I I didn't really want to go through the paperback because it was in mint condition still in the wrapper I flipped through it a little bit Which is why it's kind of the first couple pages are slightly warped But overall it's still in mint condition Now as you can see the hardback is red and the paperback is green The paperback has the official Ghostbusters edition at the bottom the hardback should have had a sleeve at the bottom But I guess mine wasn't sent with one for whatever reason that the paperback is the nerd block exclusive as you can see at the bottom there and on this green one Let's take a look at As you can see the artwork is pretty much the same on both the only difference is the coloring and That the paperback says nerd block as you can see on the green one at the bottom Ghostbusters trademark and copyright 2016 Columbia Pictures Industries Incorporated and The paperback was 1495 The hardback it doesn't really say, but I think I paid about $15 for 15 $20 something like that Men here on the sides It's going to angle this down so you guys can see on the sides On the paperback it says Tobin spirit guide in white print while on the hardback It says Tobin spirit guide in black print Other than that They're both pretty identical other than on the green cover. It says written by dr. Ray stands dr. Egon Spangler and Eric Burnham Illustrated by Kyle Hots Now with that being said I'm gonna try not to open this up all the way But there's the front inner cover Tobin spirit guide official Ghostbusters edition The forward by Ray stands the afterward is by Egon Spangler and then we got some Info there let's go ahead and move this out of the way and we'll focus on the hardback simply because I flipped through it yesterday. I read a bunch quite a few of the pages and I'm not gonna mess the binding up on that one like I would on the soft on the paperback So anyway, as you can see on the front there's a ghoul Inside the no-ghost logo the Well, it's inside a circle the chain that's wrapping around it is actually making this cross-section of the no-ghost logo At the top you have the face of the Stay Puff marshmallow man I'm not sure whose eye that is on the right hand side on the bottom you got the Sandman and then Either Zool or Vince Córtho, so then we open it up and It's black Tobin spirit guide and It's done in Style that the pages look old As you can see their official Ghostbusters edition dr. Ray stands dr. Egon Spangler and Eric Burnham Illustrated by Kyle Hott's There's the forward by dr. Ray stands New York, New York. I'll pause a minute. Let you read that All right, so then Section one is the ghosts of New York It's got all the different spirits. They've encountered the driver the class 3 corporeal only when it's The driver class 3 corporeal only when it manifests in the confines of a taxicab location Madison Avenue The Green Ghost aka Slamriff talks about the spider witch the scolari brothers I Really kind of I really like the artwork on this I'm surprised they didn't include mama scolari though because they didn't stick directly with the movies only they incorporated some from the real Ghostbusters animated series as Well as from the video game And I think they they've even added some from The comics there's the dream ghost. I'll let you guys read that That's from a deleted scene the scene did kind of make it into the original movie Only it was shown as a dream sequence the one where Ray is getting ghost head and After it says there at the bottom after extensive research into the matter we were able to conclude that the Marrying entity was no was of no danger to the general public Doctor stands nevertheless continues to monitor monitor the site regularly. I Bet you do got animal spirits Elemental spirits confused spirits Meta inspectors you got the Sandman Ravana Browel the collectors The boogeyman hungry manatee Boogaloo Grundle Maybe maybe that's what that is. That's I think that's the grundle up top there killer watch No These are the grundle or Hestril, I don't know maybe I'm thinking it's the grundle because Hestril's eyes open a little bit wider more menacingly And it talks about Prince Vigo the Carpathian Sam Hain And it goes into Gozer and time OTS and Ben's chloro and Zool And stay puffed marshmallow man and all these others And it even talks about the other chosen forms of gozer Which is really cool. I do however wish Eric Burnham who wrote this would have actually included the Classifications that the Ghostbusters use I know in each section each ghost has its own classification, but it would have been nice if he would have included The exact classification That the Ghostbusters use in the movies TV series comics and whatnot And what? Determines that classification That would have been nice to see. I know you can find it online. In fact, I may do a series on it here in the future Overall, yeah, I really enjoyed this book As you can tell because I got both the hard hardback and paperback Very good for the collection I Think the paperback is gonna go into the archive The collection archive And not get very many did not get handled very often while the hardback will probably get read more often it'll go into the library and Yeah, let me know what you guys thought about this in the comments below I'm gonna continue doing more Ghostbusters videos on the channel I'm also gonna be doing some Star Trek explained videos Greg's planning on doing more reviews as well and Here in the next couple weeks when I get a break from classes I will be doing more history and origins videos. It's just they take a lot of time to edit That's why I don't really do very many of those wild classes in session and when I'm really busy and Loaded down with work and everything else because it just takes it takes me an entire day to edit the The footage Plus record the audio write the script and everything else. It's just overloaded. So But yeah, I do have we did already do History and origins of rainbow bright Tammy recorded the audio for that So I've just got to edit it down and then add the video footage and it will be ready to go here soon Probably in the next couple weeks So Yeah, catch you next time guys.
