Division 18 will be making a guest appearance in the next genre-themed anthology from The DC Conspiracy — “Doctor Dremo’s Taphouse of Tall Tales & Short Stories: The Spoils of Crime.”

I’m still writing our lovably costumed mooks, but the new 4-page piece will be illustrated by a guy named Renzo Ventrella. As you might guess, Jeremy got in deep with his bookie, who sent Renzo to stomp on his fingers and break his pencils…but these comics ain’t gonna draw themselves, and the big lug agreed to knock out a few doodles himself, fuggeddabouditt. Check out the pages in progress below.

As for hooking up with the DCC, maybe it has something to do with our mutual affinity for ridiculously long comic titles. But whatever the reason, crime will be spoiled. Stay tuned here and at the DC Conspiracy site for updates.

Alright, alright, calm down. You’ll be able to get the finish story (and more) when The Spoils of Crime goes on sale in a couple of months. In the meantime, the latest offerring from Doctor Dremo’s Taphouse, “The Horrors of War,” is available now for order from ComixPress and includes two stories written by yours truly!
