Description: Knockturn County is an adult crime noir set in a classic children's book universe told through rhyming narrative -- as if Dr. Seuss took a few swigs of whimsical whiskey and ran amok through Sin City. Written by James E. Roche and illustrated by Axur Eneas.

The lives of a cop, a young girl, a dame, a gambler, and a kingpin, all converge and collide in this county built on crime. As they each slide deeper into a corrupt underworld littered with death, drugs, booze, and betrayal, one thing becomes clear... Good doesn't always win, bad doesn't always pay, and, in true crime noir fashion, people always die!

Brief description: Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, James E. Roche now lives in New Jersey with his wife and three kids. He is the writer and co-creator of the sci-fi adventure series, WRETCHES, published by Scout Comics. He is the host of the 'Comic Book Writers on Writing' podcast on YouTube, where he and other writers talk about the process of writing comics, the business of bringing them to life, and everything in between.
