![]() Author has written 59 stories for Ghost Busters (Real/Extreme), Digimon, and Ghostbusters. I'm pretty much only known on the Internets for my contributions to the Ghostbusters community; in 2003, I created the Ghostbusters Omnibus Timeline, which tried to meld together the movies, the Real Ghostbusters cartoons and comics, and the Extreme Ghostbusters cartoon into one semicoherent continuity. I received a bit of flack for positing that the battle with Gozer actually happened in 1983, to make time for the movie to be made and come out in 1984 (per the RGB episode "Take Two") but some have pointed to a tantalizing semi-slimed "83" on the back of the 2005 Ghostbusters DVD set as a measure of validation. Ghostbusters Afterlife is not part of this continuity; I'd set down elements of this universe's future twenty years ago, and GBA is just not, in the whole, compatible with it. My story "Thirty Five Years Later" basically explains how it all works, though anyone familiar with IDW's Ghostbusters multiverse can figure it out pretty quick too. The main points: 1983 Ghostbusters 1 and "Citizen Ghost" 1984-1986 RGB from 1986-1988; the team is shut down by court order in the middle of the year. 1988 Ghostbusters 2; the Now RGB comic begins (#1-2) 1989-1991 RGB from 1989-1991; Now RGB comic run. In late 1991, the team breaks up again. (The Video Game occurs 1991, but not every element of it is GBOT canon due to EGB and other fan stories written before the game was even a gleam in Seirra's eye) 1997 Extreme Ghostbusters 1998-On Fan fictions centered on Ghostbusters International; the GBI team I'm involved with, the Ghostbusters West Coast, starts their adventures in 2003. That's the basic outline, which is pretty essential to understanding the basis of my fan fic continuity. Anything marked "Apocrypha" doesn't count in the main timeline. So this is the order the stories are more or less intended to take place: Before the First Movie (Before 1983) Ghostbusting 101 Era 1: GB1 and RGB 1986-1988 (1983-1986) Fateful Opportunity Between RGB 1988 and GB2 (1986-1988) A Bit Of Family Business Era 2: GB2; RGB 1989-1991; RGB by Now Comics (1988-1991) Picture Imperfect Between RGB and EGB (1991-1997) For Worse Or For Better Era 3: EGB and Beyond (1997-2003) Clinically Insane Ghostbusters West Coast Division and Ghostbusters International (2003-Present) Ghostbusters West Coast: Opening Night Ghostbusters West Coast: Mummy Dearest Ghostbusters West Coast: Act Two Ghostbusters International: The Spirited Drizzlepuss Ghostbusters West Coast: Toy Soldiers (Coming Soon) Ghostbusters West Coast: One Froggy Halloween Extreme Ghostbusters: The End of the World! Ghostbusters: Thirty-Five Years Later Ghostbusters 202x Ghostbusters 2021: The Eye of Aretpo Ghostbusters 2022: Ghosts Can't Do It Ghostbusters 2023: The Monster of Lungbarrow Out of Continuity/Apocrypha Digibusters I do occasionally write non-GB stories; I used to be active on some of the Digimon boards under the name "Veedramon". I only have one Digimon story, "The Courage To Fly", though I also did one whacked-out Ghostbusters/Digimon crossover ("Digibusters") |
