It is supposedly a new book that is due out in October of this year. The page doesn't really have any information yet, though. It is listed as being by "various authors." Maybe it has something to do with the comics from a few years back, because it seems to be in a comic book category, but it doesn't really give any information. Seems it is being published by some company called TokyoPop, which appears to be a Manga company. Does anybody have any idea what this is?

I know, I said some choice words myself. I don't know what to think, I feel like I'm being attacked at this point.

I dunno, maybe I missed a detail when I was reading, but if this is after GB2, but BEFORE the game, as in, the 5th guy, new equipment, and Gozer won't be in it, then I'm wondering what the problem is. Isn't there room for canonical stories in that period?

All of those bastards at TokyoPop are just wringing their damn hands and staying up all night just thinking of ways to take down the likes of you and that cursed timeline. Seriously, when you feel like they're actually attacking you is the point you need to step back and get over yourself.

Aww c'mon, dude. He was obviously being facetious. He probably should've put quotations around it, but still, it's a little obvious that Vince is not the one calling it "that cursed timeline" in this imaginary scenario he's describing.
I think I have to agree that you've gotten a bit too sensitive about this whole "they're making products set between GB2 and EGB, how will we ever make them fit?" thing.
Are you or aren't you the man who reconciled RGB with the nature of Stay Puft, the existence of Dana Barrett, and the restraining order/out of business 5 years between films?
Dan and Harold's stuff has ALWAYS conflicted with the universe where Egon is blonde, and this fan fiction community - you in particular - have ALWAYS made it work.
Legion made Louis rich and freakin' famous, and invented Wireless Traps immediately after GB1...and for god's sake, what did you do? You fit it in the timeline.
And I admit, the game is a lot of work to throw at us, but now you're stressing over a goddamn manga? After you DIDN'T stress over The Return? Y'know, that book where Winston becomes the damn mayor of New York at the end?
Remember how you were able to leave that book pretty much out of the timeline and nobody cared? You really think there's a big chunk of Ghostbusters fans who will take time out from building screen-accurate Ecto Goggles and trimming their beards so they look exactly like Kevin Smith to read a Tokyopop book?
