We've got big plans for next year for the book, including a fun first arc of 2013 and a fun backup or two (and some more behind the scenes sketchings, most likely, and more kid art!)

I've talked to Tom about the possibility of running a letter column as well. What do you guys think about that? Should I letter the matter drop or press on with my attempts to convince?

(:

Are you kidding me?

Of course I vote yes on this idea! Very Happy

Hell yes Ghostbusters needs a letters column!!! I'd write in after every issue!!! Very Happy

I dig the Ninja Notes letters column in the TMNT ongoing, even had 2 letters make it in so far, so of course I'm down for some letters action in Ghostbusters as well!

I think that would be totally awesome. And I'm kinda jealous only little kids get to put their picks in the comic. I've been drawing Ghostbusters for 23 years out of my 27 years on Earth.

I vote YES! More so, if it replaces an ad.

I most definitely would like to see a lettercol, but not at the expense of the fan art. I think it would mean a lot more to the younger fans to have their art posted than it would for the "grown ups" to see their letters printed. And mind you, I do write letters after every issue but even in those letters I stated how I don't mind never seeing them in print as long as the kids get their art posted.

+1 who would be up for a letters column, but like swordmaster, I wouldn't want the kid's art to suffer for it. Smile

I would support a letter column, but like other said not at the expense of fan art. I also wouldn't want it to replace the back up stories either. I feel a lot of comics either have back up stories or letter columns... I can't think of any that have both

I don't think it would be replacing anything.

Just seeing if there's enough demand/will be enough letters. (;

Well if it wouldn't be at the expense of content, I say roll it out good sir, sure there are forums to discuss something in real time, but nothing beats the rush of writing a letter, sending it in, and then seeing that what you had to say was deemed worthy for print.
