that's fantastic news. Off White Lies was one of the best stories I've ever heard or read. This next comment may be a little outdated, but if you do do a TV show, please, PLEASE, no live action. it doesn't work with superheros if there are more than 5 in the same show, movie, whatever. At least, not without a massive special effects budget and a lot of time. Animate, for the sake of the writing. Which is great.
Unfortunately, the production company that was interested in Union Dues couldn't put together a workable deal to bring it to the small screen... That said, the responses they had to their pitch for the series was "this should be animated, like, on Adult Swim or something similar."
The problem was the production company didn't have any animation savvy assets (they were a very small production company).
So it doesn't look like a TV show is forthcoming. However, if one TV producer is an EP listener and showed interest, there are bound to be others. And everytime a UD story posts there is a definite spike in interest and a chance that someone else will make an offer. So who knows what the future holds.
As it stands now I am trying to complete the Team Shikaragaki stories (the second Union Dues series), and with them complete the entire run of tales will be about 80k words. Plenty enough to pitch to a publishing company for a volume.
And before anyone asks if I'll out one out through lulu, I won't.
