The Transformers is our main thing. But in order to be an informative and comprehensive encyclopedia, it sometimes falls to us to document content from other publications.
From a wiki perspective, articles with content from other publications are marked with the ExtraTF Template – extra meaning "outside", like in "extraterrestrial".

Despite being conceived as a comedy vehicle for John Belushi based on Dan Aykroyd's paranormal spec int with a licensed title from an unrelated production, the 1984 movie Ghostbusters was a cultural phenomenon. This unlikely supernatural comedy launched a multimedia franchise, much of which was aimed at a younger audience – as was the style at the time – including DiC's animated sequel/spin-off, The Real Ghostbusters.
Debuting in 1988, Marvel UK's The Real Ghostbusters became a runaway hit, running for an unprecedented 193 issues with annuals and spin-off appearances galore. Producing the comic was a ballsy move in the early days as, unlike many of Marvel UK's other licensed titles, The Real Ghostbusters had no U.S. equivalent series to reprint as a safety net; in those early days, The Real Ghostbusters was filled with home-grown, in-house talent. This led to something of a transatlantic cultural exchange with the later NOW Comics The Real Ghostbusters series, as each publication began to reprint the other's material.
The Ghostbusters also fell afoul of the Gwanzulums, meaning we cover the following:
- Issue 9: "Too Many Ghostbusters!"
- Issue 20: Gwanzulums Fact File
