Roman Dirge

As Roman Dirge, creator, author and artist of Lenore: The Cute The Dead Girl describes it, 'This is a collection of children's tales for disturbed children.' This is Roman at his most macabre best, short stories with creepy stings in their tales. This collection has been recoloured by Roman Dirge approved artist, Adam Bolton who also recoloured Roman's Cat With The Really Big Head.

It's the Year of Lenore! 2012 marks the 20th Anniversary of Roman Dirge's twisted creation, Lenore, the cute little dead girl! Lenore wants a sammich. She wants it bad. The rumble in her tummy has its own rumble within a rumble, Inception style. The problem is the angry, cold-loving, slimy thing in her fridge won't let anyone in. After giving up all hope, Lenore calls in an Exterminator to deal with the fridge squatter. Following an unfortunate terminal...

Someone's going to die... After four issues, it's time for a death in the family. And we're not talking about a case of mild death - We're talking dead-dead. Dead as a doornail dead, the pushing up daisies kind of dead. But who will it be..? There's only one way to find out...

When the mailman accidentally delivers to Lenore a birthday party invitation addressed to Chong Lee, Lenore dismisses that as bad spelling and finds herself invading a stranger's party. Poor stranger. Mayhem ensues. What kind of mayhem? The red, sticky, coagulating type. Pooty goes on a permanent sabbatical and leaves a mysterious stranger in his place. But ...Is this new guy friend or foe? Ohhhhhh.......cryptic.

It's the beginning of the end for some unlucky inhabitant of the world of Lenore!
