DESCRIPTION:
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. . 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.

This is Roman at his most macabre best, short stories with creepy stings in their tales. A collection of short poems all telling macabre and twisted tales for children of all ages. As Roman Dirge, creator, author and artist of LENORE: THE CUTE LITTLE DEAD GIRL describes it, 'This is collection of children's tales for disturbed Children.' From serious sinister one page poems like, 'Critter Pie' and 'Pear Head Man and Bread Boy' to longer stories such as 'The Sideways Man' and the title story, 'Something at My Window is Scratching'. This collection has been recoloured by Roman Dirge approved artist, Adam Bolton who also recoloured Roman's other non-Lenore book, Cat With The Really Big Head.

Dirge at his best Sean M. Mcafee Yet again something wonderfully twisted from a talented artist/writer. Been a fan of Roman Dirge for years and everything thing he does just brings a smile to my face. With his usual dark and twisted yet somehow innocent style of humor and story telling his book of poems is a quick read but something you'll spend hours reading again and again. I highly recommend Something at the Window is Scratching.. VERY touched by this book Well, it sounds really dumb, but I love this book more than anything else. There's one picture in the book that is just so adorable, and I loved the one story so much that I got it tattooed on me. Yes, you read that right. The little sandman's son is tattooed about 6 inches big on my back right shoulder blade. Now, if that isn't explaining how good something is, I don't know what could.. "This stuff just comes to you, huh?" - quoting Roman's Dad ThatUmbrellaGuy Roman Dirge's take on the childhood aspects are wonderful, especially when you filter into that account the entirety of his body of work. From Lenore, Monsters in My Tummy, and The Cat with a Really Big Head, and One Other Story that Isn't that Good, there is a scope that hits on what many of the imaginative creators in the past had sculpted while adding in his own thoughts and perspectives. Some range in the realms of the silly, some are smothered in darker aspects, an
