King Bowzar ruled Babylon 5000 years prior to the time of the Ghostbusters, around 3100 b.c. He was known as the most evil king who ever lived. A large statue of him, sitting on his thrown, was the main attraction of a new Babylonian exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum in 1986. When Jessica Wray broadcast a live report on the opening of the exhibit, the statue of Bowzar came to live and kidnapped her.
