This collection is a game changer for Lenore: the cute little dead girl. To celebrate her 20th anniversary, Roman Dirge embarked on an epic, new chapter in the life of the cute little dead girl! Featuring a slow-burning, four-issue story-arc that not only reveals the untold origins of the ultra-sinister and deadly-mysterious Taxidermy, but also pitches him into a titanic fight to the death with Lenore's best buddy, Ragamuffin. Whatever happens one of them is going on an all-expenses paid vacation into the afterlife! Packed with the usual irreverent and gothically surreal humour and hi-jinx, Roman Dirge once again proves why he's been called the Michelangelo of the macabre…
Roman Dirge created Lenore in 1992 for the San Diego alternative magazine Xenophobe. In 1997 he launched the Lenore comic in the US, which quickly became a publishing phenomenon. In 2009, Titan Books started publishing the new collections in full-colour. Currently Roman is working on issue #11 of the ongoing comic, as well as an all-new book called, I Can Count to Ten as well as an exciting new animated kids show for Nickelodeon.
