10 Criminally Underrated Comic Book Runs EVERYONE Missed

7. Ghostbusters - Erik Burnham & Dan Schoening

While fanboys despair at the state of Ghostbusters and the wider, maybe unsalvageable discourse surrounding it, they've only gone and missed the group's best period.

Atari developed what was effectively Ghostbusters 3 in 2009 with Ghostbusters: The Video Game, and though that game too is actually pretty underrated, it did spark a brief resurgence of the Ghostbusters IP. In 2011, IDW Publishing released a Ghostbusters comic of their own, written by Erik Burnham, and with art by Dan Schoening and Luis Antonio Delgado.

Burnham et al. have been involved with Ghostbusters for almost the entire decade now, and it's from that consistency that they've been able to fashion such a wonderful selection of stories.

All embody the films in their own way, but there's also a clear love for all aspects of the franchise. Burnham's writing bears the echo of The Real Ghostbusters cartoon series, and with later works having also incorporated elements from the 2016 reboot, it's plain and obvious to see that Ghostbusters can still be fun, if only people gave IDW's work a read.
