BOOM! Studios Announces New Fantasy Mini-Series ‘Orcs!’ For February 2021

BOOM! Studios announced an all-new original six-issue comic book series, Orcs! by cartoonist Christine Larsen. The series is about a band of misfit Orcs who set off into the great, wide Known World in search of glory and gold but find that the real treasures were the friends they made along the way.

‘The Adventure Starts Here! Join Bog and his crew, who were banished from their Orcish village by King Hrograhgah (it was a simple misunderstanding, involving an acorn-related prank!) and must now venture out into the world to seek their fortune and hopefully, one day, find their way back home again! Bog, Zep, Pez, Utzu and Gurh’s many adventures will find them entering the dreaded Eerieasallhel Forest, facing off against Trolls, Gnomes, squirrels and more, and even following in the footsteps of the legendary Orc hero, Dod One-Eye!’

Larsen says of the new series: 

Orcs! is dedicated to everyone who’s taken an arrow from the hero, who wasn’t more than a nameless menace in the story, who didn’t have the looks for the main role—the quirky sidekicks, goofy henchmen, and army of lackeys. Goons are heroes, too!

Orcs! #1 will hit spinner racks in February 2021. Check out the preview images below.
