Description

When there's no more room in Hell, or if they just get a little bit bored, the dead shall walk the earth! Lenore, the cute little dead girl, is back: being beastly to Mr. Gosh, accidentally squishing small cute animals, making friends with all manners of monsters! This title collects issues 4 to 7 of the sold out comic series and is beautifully and painstakingly illustrated by creator Roman Dirge.

Reviews

Brilliantly written, smartly drawn / colored, incredibly macabre and an absolute thrill to read. The Pullbox Review

I really liked it. It was dark and humorous, with a fun Halloween feel to it. Spooky cute. Atomic Moo

If Tim Burton, Edgar Allan Poe, The Cures Robert Smith, and the creative team behind South Park getting together to hash out ideas for a collaborative Seussian childrens book sounds like a match made in Heck to you, then this is the comic youve been praying for. Pop Mythology

This could be the best of them all. Comic Related

Lenore is an incredibly fun comic and one that continues to entertain. There are several laugh-out-loud moments throughout Purple Nurples that made me look like a crazy person as I was reading this in public. Fortunately, that means I'd fit right in with Lenore and her friends and I'm pretty OK with that. Horror Talk

Goth Girls abound will enjoy the loveable little dead girl, Lenore. The Geek Girl Project


If youre looking for a fun and delightfully unusual, light-hearted read then Lenore:
Purple Nurples or any of the other Lenore color deluxe editions by Roman Dirge will certainly satisfy. Theyre great comics thatll sneak up behind you and split your sides open when you least expect it. Ravenous Monster
A very entertaining read. Awkward Geeks

The book is yet another winner one of indie comics most criminally underrated/under-the-radar/unknown series, in my opinion. Hes a master of comic timing not easy to do in a static format and visually, somehow manages to make many of his panels pop off the page with movement. Bookgasm

I highly recommend this book to any Dirge fan or anyone who happens to like wildly inappropriate humor. Lez Get Real


If you like dark humor and not-so mainstream pop-stories, then Lenore brings it.

Another great addition to the Roman Dirge library. Strange Kids Club

An entertainingly exquisite book full of beautiful illustrations and fun stories. BGG After Dark
