In the climactic finale of Ghostbusters International, the squad returns to New York City just in time to stop a power-hungry immortal from unleashing Hell on Earth—literally. With the fate of the world dangling by a proton thread, the Ghostbusters must battle demonic hordes, ancient magic, and bureaucracy (naturally). It's a world-ending threat... but just another Tuesday for this fearless foursome. Will they finally hang up their proton packs or charge extra for global calls?

📚 Notable Arcs or Storylines:

  • Ghostbusters International (Issues #1–11): A globe-trotting series that takes the Ghostbusters from Paris to Italy to Japan before circling back to New York for the grand finale.

  • Rise of the Rogue Immortal: This arc threads through the latter part of the series, gradually revealing the antagonist's ancient motives and his catastrophic endgame.

🧠 Fan Theories or Interpretations:

  • Some fans speculate that the Rogue Immortal is loosely inspired by Ivo Shandor, the cult leader behind Gozer’s return in the original film—hinting at an expanded shared mythos.

  • Others interpret the global narrative as a commentary on the Ghostbusters’ inability to escape their origins—no matter how far they go, New York remains the epicenter of supernatural unrest.
