The Monsters in My Tummy

Roman Dirge's The Monsters in My Tummy (1999–present, Slave Labor) is a single-issue, darkly whimsical comic that explores the ghoulish creatures living inside a child's digestive system. Written and illustrated entirely by Dirge, it offers a grotesquely charming glimpse into his signature macabre humor and distinctive art style. Though brief, the issue stands as a cult oddity from the late-90s alternative comics scene, showcasing Dirge's unique voice before his later work on Lenore.
