     Three “ninjas” are loose on the city and committing robberies.  The catch: they’re using a werewolf!  The NYPD contacts the Ghostbusters for help just as the thieves hit the Natural History Museum, taking a mummy unearthed with King-Tut.  The Ghostbusters face off with the wolf at the scene, managing to free it of the collar keeping it under the ninjas’ control.  The Ghostbusters get a surprise when Irene, the werewolf’s human form, appears at their doorstep asking for their help!

     The colors of the “Ninjas’” costumes are inconsistent throughout the issue.  At one point, the leader is shaded in purple while the other two are blue.  Later on, they are all blue and then all become purple again in various panels.
