“The Roaming Legion!”
    Mortadella, Italy, which was buried under ash and lava after the local volcano erupted, has found a resurgence in the Roman empire as ghosts of the era appear all around town.  The Ghostbusters are called in, but discover this haunting may not be all that it seems to be.

“Spengler’s Spirit Guide” Part 118
    Spooks of ancient Rome.

“Frightful Four!”
    Four ghosts armed with ghost guns have come for the Ghostbusters to put them on trial before the Ghost Court for their busting ways.  They sneak into HQ to take them down, but find out that they’re in for a little bit of a surprise.

“The Lost and the Lonely” Part 2
    A ghost named Laurie flees from a terror with her friend, Michael.  Unfortunately, their foe catches up to them and recaptures Michael, but Laurie escapes, allowing her to find help for her friends underground.  Meanwhile, Ray receives an invite to his Junior High School reunion.  It’s not long after he leaves that Laurie appears at the firehouse and informs of the Ghostbusters of the creature she escaped from.  And to make matters worse, this creature, the Soul Catcher, resides underneath the abandoned hallways of Ray’s school!

“Dead True!”
    The haunting of a Roman house in 1st Century AD whose story had greatly impressed Pliny the younger.

“Blimey!  It’s Slimer!”
    Frankenstein thinks he’s ugly, and Slimer tries to cheer him up.
Special Features:
    Slime Time! Jokes.
FYI: The story of fictional Mortadella sounds very close to that of the real cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, which were two of the cities buried under ash and lava when Mount Vesuvius erupted in the year 79 AD.

FYI: Mortadella is a type of Italian cold-cut.

FYI: This issue features part of “The Lost and the Lonely” from NOW’s Real Ghostbusters vol. 1 #14.
