The black-and-white comedy by Matt Bergin and Jeremy Donelson was originally planned as a 3-issue miniseries, but despite a successful, well-received debut issue, circumstances dictated that the creators and publisher, Silent Devil, \u00ab\u00a0wait for the trade.\u00a0\u00bb Certainly the always uncertain monthly market for independent\/small press comics<!--more-->\u00a0played a part in this decision, but an even bigger reason for the change in direction was that Silent Devil head honcho, Christian Beranek, was tied up in planning his latest venture, Disney&rsquo;s Kingdom Comics graphic novel imprint, which he launched this summer with Ahmet Zappa. Rather than indefinitely delay Division 18 issue by issue, the creators and publisher agreed the collection was the way to go to regain their momentum and give retailers and readers a reason to Support the Union once more.<\/p>\n<p>The new Division 18: The Union of Novelty Costumed Performers collection includes the popular debut, \u00ab\u00a0Five Hunnies\u00a0\u00bb; two new full-length stories, \u00ab\u00a0White Collar Crooks\u00a0\u00bb and \u00ab\u00a0The Union Files\u00a0\u00bb; and bonus content such as an annotated \u00ab\u00a0History of Da&rsquo; Union,\u00a0\u00bb which chronicles the genesis of Jimmy the Snake, Fat Louie, and the rest of the crew. The trade also features the print debut of Josh Adams, youngest son of legendary artist Neal Adams. The junior Adams debuted his Web comic, The Greatest, earlier this year at his site, whatwouldjoshdo.com, but his guest spot on pencils in \u00ab\u00a0The Union Files\u00a0\u00bb will mark his first appearance on the printed page on comic store shelves.<\/p>\n<p>The Division 18 trade paperback appears on page 326 of the July Diamond Previews catalog and is ready for pre-order:<\/p>\n<p>DIVISION 18: THE UNION OF NOVELTY COSTUMED PERFORMERS TP \u00a0\u00bb order code: JUL084207<\/p>\n<p>The new Division 18: The Union of Novelty Costumed Performers collection includes the popular debut, \u00ab\u00a0Five Hunnies\u00a0\u00bb; two new full-length stories, \u00ab\u00a0White Collar Crooks\u00a0\u00bb and \u00ab\u00a0The Union Files\u00a0\u00bb; and bonus content such as an annotated \u00ab\u00a0History of Da&rsquo; Union,\u00a0\u00bb which chronicles the genesis of Jimmy the Snake, Fat Louie, and the rest of the crew.
