Description
Peter:...of the time you tried to drill a hole through your head. Remember that?Egon: That would have worked if you hadn't stopped me.
So how would that scene actually have played out?
Here's my take on the moments before Egon attempts to drill a hole in his head. In case you are unfamilar with the concept of drilling a hole in your head, it's correct medical term is "Trepanation" or "Trepanning." It is centuries old in practice. And some believed that drilling a hole in your head would cause more blood to rush to your brain. Therefore, making you think better. I'm assuming Egon thinks he could expand his brain capacity this way
Here is the wiki entry on trepanation, [link] a very interesting read. So what better way to kick off October, than with some Ghostbusters art! Big thanks to too
Cheers

I love everything about this - the colours, Peter's "wait what" expression, Egon's super focused look, the details in the background... Is the poster with the lovely-looking lady Egon's, or does he share his lab with Venkman? It's also interesting to see the subtle way your take on the guys has changed since then. The design in itself is the same, but there are tiny details that aren't
Oh, Egon. You're kind of scary when the mad scientist mood takes ya. For Science, eh?

We should have had another Ghost Busters cartoon and you should have been the art director.

Yeah, but one problem: who would voice Egon?? Harold Ramis died 3 years ago. R.I.P my dear favorite Ghostbuster.

No he's not. I think it was just another one of his experiments. Egon is the brainy one.

There has been well-documented evidence of trepanation, going back to ancient times, in which the patient survived. Β I recall a picture in a textbook showing the skull of a man who had had it done twice.Β

I believe on the IDW Ghostbusters wiki, it's mentioned that one of these future issues will have a tribute to Harold Ramis in it. Β I believe, if you buy the paperbacks (like I do that combine issues), it'll be Paperback Issue #7 that comes out sometime in April (April 22 for Amazon buyers). Β But don't quote me on that, I'm not an official anyone with the artists, illustrators, writers, IDW, etc. Β Just a big, dedicated fan who happened upon what seems to be information.Β

And I hope that was okay for me to share that information on here Dan. Β If not, let me know, and I'll gladly remove the comment. Β

This is super cool! I love all the little things! Like the drill effect, the light reflecting off the glasses, and the dust particles passing in front of the light. This is fantastic!

I often found myself wondering how that came to be.

Only Egon would have tried to do this. Great Job!

Great job on the pic!

I love the look of concentration on Egon's face and the puzzlement on Venkman's!

In medieval times, drilling a hole in someone's head was an attempt to rid people of insanity.
Needless to say, it didn't really work
