“Who the hell is Matt Bergin?!”
That’s what 90% of readers will be asking when they check out the latest Pro Roundtable at The Pulse, where I answer this month’s pressing question: What is your favorite horror movie of all time?
Click through for my answer (I’m sandwiched between Tom Beland and Ian Carney), but here’s a hint:
Thanks to Cracked.com’s look at creepy German Halloween costumes, we’ve got a brand new list of novelty costumed scabs scheduled for a Union beatdown.
And speaking of Halloween… could that be the day issue #1 finally hits store shelves? Stay tuned to find out (you know, as soon as we do!!!)!
Thanks once again to The Pulse for featuring your friendly neighborhood comic writer, Matt Bergin (me!) in another Pro Roundtable — this time showcasing favorite Halloween costumes. And look — they even used my pic as the feature’s thumbnail link!
This marks my third appearance on the site in a month… yet still we wait for Division 18 #1 to hit stores. If only our printer liked me as much as Jen Contino does.
We deal with the same crap at this time every year here in the Union of Novelty Costumed Performers — rank amateurs stepping on our toes and confusing our clientele with their low-rent costumes and cheap gimmicks.
It’s worse than when the circus comes to River City and our town is overrun by clowns… but the response is just the same. We’ve gotta make clowns and scabs alike know what happens when you cross the Union. The message is usually best delivered on the business end of a baseball bat or tire iron.
Make this a Happy Halloween for all and beat the snot out of some scabs.
Dear Loyal Fans and Fans-To Be,
Remember that time we hinted that Division 18 issue #1 might come out on Halloween? Yeah, that’s not happening. Details still TK on our actual release date, but its looking like mid-November for the big debut. It will be a Union Thanksgiving for us all!
The bad news: No awesomely synergistic costume-themed promotion tying our comic to the feast of the great pumpkin.
The good news: We get to stay home Wednesday night and drown our sorrows in candy corn and whiskey.
Welcome to Indie publishing, suckers!
~The Management
We don’t know who this guy is, but unlike most scabs we encounter, we’re offering him a job, not a beating! He’d be a perfect spokeman for that new sausage joint in downtown River City.
Thanks again to Cracked.com for pointing us in the right direction.
