     After a successful Kickstarter campaign in late 2017 comic book writer James E. Roche and a bevy of comic book creators are bringing to life The 4th Monkey: An Anthology for Awareness. The name plays on the 3 Mystic Monkeys proverb: " See no Evil, Hear no Evil, Speak no Evil." The 4th Monkey is the one who is not blinded. It is aware and wants the World to take Notice.

      Thru his new imprint, James E. Roche is now publishing the 100 page comic anthology featuring stories to raise awareness about environmental and social issues. Each creative team will be bringing to life a story about something that is near and dear to their hearts. The book features 8 stories brought to life by over 30 creators revolving around: Ocean Pollution. Alcoholism. Poaching. Suicide. Political Polarization. Abuse. Pesticides. Online Bullying.

     In his short, James E. Roche tackles the issue of Ocean pollution with a tale highlighting the effects on the people who depend on the Sea for sustenance. The story shows in dark terms the ultimate effects of dwindling resources.
