"Hilarious, vivid, endlessly clever, and filled with heart. The best new comic I've read in forever!" -Matt Dinniman (Dungeon Crawler Carl)
"You had me at magic talking eyeball shield. Brett Bean creates a fantasy world like no other! Don't be a dork, buy D'orc!" -Robert Kirkman (Invincible, The Walking Dead) The perfect mix of Bone, The Dark Crystal, Discworld, and Monty Python, D'ORC is destined to be a new fan-favorite for years to come. D'orc, the half dwarf/ half orc is fated to end the world because of some inconvenient doomsday prophecy from the Book of Certain Doom.� Armed with nothing but a magical yet ambitiously violent shield and a chicken with its head cut off, D'orc is caught dead center into Sunderaine's never-ending war between the Light and Dark. Elves vs. Orcs. Wizards vs. Common Sense. Dragons vs. Literally Everyone. Can he survive being hunted, blamed, and beaten by every human, elf, goblin, dwarf, Witch, Timelord, Ice Giant, three headed Dog, and at least three other unpronounceable magical creatures? Join fan-favorite artist BRETT BEAN (I HATE FAIRYLAND, DUNGEON CRAWLER CARL THE CROCODILE), colorist JEAN-FRAN�OIS BEAULIEU (I HATE FAIRYLAND), and letterer NATE PIEKOS (MINOR THREATS) for a hilarious high-fantasy romp perfect for fans of CONAN, LORD OF THE RINGS, and of course, GERT's deadpan humor. Collects issues #1-5.
