Lenore’s back with the usual gang for misfits for four fantastically foolish, farcical felinologistic-themed fairy tales guaranteed to fracture your funny bone and leave you gasping for breath, weak with mirth.

The collection contains four individual stories including:

CURSE OF THE BEEBEEYAGA One day Lenore and Ragamuffin find their chum Pooty at the bottom of a well. Turns out he’s been thrown down there by a real dick of a bumble bee. Things take a turn when the bee’s Gram Gram, the legendary BEEBEEYAGA, turns up and then all hell breaks loose!

BLOOD AND MONEY
In a post-apocalyptic wasteland Winnie the Pooh (played by Lenore), ROOgamuffin, and Pootlet defend their 100 Acre Wood Dino-park fortress from exploding cars, and an army of gazolene-guzzling road-warriors, just the way A.A. Milne intended.

MUFFIN ELSE MATTERSRagamuffin is forced to seek help from the Spam Witch when Lenore goes all funny like and starts acting like a cat. Turns out her cat battery is flat and it needs recharging. Get ready for mayhem.


GHOST STORY
Lenore and crew decide to spend the night camping in the woods and sharing ghost stories under a star encrusted night sky. Then the bickering starts and the accusations, and the insinuations.
Born April 29, 1972 Roman Dirge is an autodidactic, quadruple Eisner nominated artist/writer, magician and accomplished raconteur.

Told by his high school art teachers that he would never become an artist due to his ‘crude drawing style’. Roman promptly quit art and became a full-time magician, dazzling countless kids’ parties with his astonishing skills of prestidigitation. However the urge to create comics was too great and 1992 he created Lenore, the Cute Little Dead Girl for the San Diego alternative magazine Xenophobe. Roman would go on to draw 13 issues of Lenore, before taking his titular character to Titan Comics in 2009 where Roman still continues to bring his gloriously silly and gothically bizarre worlds to an adoring audience of devoted fans.

Roman is much in demand in the animation industry where he’s worked  on a variety of TV shows and commercials as a writer and artist including the HBO show, Animals and Nickeolodeon’s Invader Zim. In 2015 Roman wrote and developed a pilot show for the animated show, Princess Battle Boy for Nickelodeon. He has also written and illustrated three books, the first a collection of his short stories called The Cat With a Really big Head, his second book, a book of macabre poetry called Something at the Window is Scratching and 2024’s I Can Count to Ten, the world’s first how to count book for adults.
