Sony Pictures has landed the live-action film rights to D’Orc, the comic series written and drawn by Brett Bean and published by Image Comics. Bean is attached to adapt it. Yes, the announcement said “live-action,” not “animated.”
The series is fantastic, and you can check out our reviews and previews of the series. The story follows D’Orc who is part dwarf and part orc and might bring about the destruction of the world. The light side and dark side are both out to stop him. Did we mention that D’Orc’s friends include a bloodthirsty enchanted shield and the ghost of a decapitated chicken?
The series is a hit with the first issue up to its eighth printing with other issues also receiving multiple printings.
D’orc travels to the Frozen Moors in search of the Bone Witch and to escape that annoying Dark Golem that’s hunting him. But the Necromancer atop the snowy mountains is slowly building an army of meat monsters and D’orc now comes to face, to face, to face, to… oh, gross why are there SO many faces!?!
The full first story arc of the breakout, bestselling hit series D’orcby Brett Bean is getting a glow-up with a line of very special Glow-in-the-Dark variant cover reprints—or shall we say: Glow-in-the-D’orc? These highly collectible covers immediately lit up retailers when first revealed earlier this week at the comic shop retailer event at New York Comic Con and kicked the show off on a high note.
Armed with nothing but a wisecracking enchanted shield and a crippling need for friendship, D’orc follows a lonely orphan who stumbles headfirst into Sunderaine’s never-ending war. Light vs. Dark. Elves vs. Orcs. Wizards vs. Common Sense. Dragons vs. Literally Everyone. And caught dead-center? D’orc. Half dwarf, half orc, and wholly inconvenient to a doomsday prophecy, D’orc is destined to end the world. Soon, every human, elf, goblin, dwarf, Snargletooth, Necroid, Ice Giant, Trauma Llama, and at least three other unpronounceable magical creatures will know his name. Unfortunately, so will his enemies.

D’orc meets Schweinehund, a vicious warrior aimed at bringing justice to all the lords of Sunderaine. Yeah, this dude is wound tight and we’re pretty sure the King of Goblin Gate probably has it coming, but at what cost to D’orc and his companions? Oh, and Troll meat will be eaten…sloppily.

This October… blood will be spilled in It Demands Sacrifice! Emmy Award-winning screenwriter Philip Gelatt, the principal writer behind Netflix’s Love, Death & Robots, and filmmaker David Yarovesky, the twisted mind behind the superhero horror sensation Brightburn, have joined forces with artist Adam Pollina and colorist Dean White to unleash It Demands Sacrifice.
On a quiet farm, Bronson, the youngest and smallest member of a close-knit family of goats, lives an idyllic life of sun-drenched fields, fresh hay, and sibling rivalries. His greatest concern is proving to his older siblings—and, more importantly, his imposing father—that he is more than just the runt of the herd.
Then, in a single night, everything changes.
A drug-fueled, sex-obsessed satanic hippie murder cult descends on the farm, slaughtering the family who raised and protected the goats before abducting Bronson and his loved ones. Deep in the wilderness, beneath a blood-red moon, hundreds of cult followers gather for an ancient ritual. Their purpose: to sacrifice the goats and summon a ravenous demon from beyond.
Now, the fate of his family rests on the shoulders of the one creature least prepared to save them.
Innocent, outmatched, and absurdly cute, Bronson must summon a courage he never knew he possessed as he confronts knife-wielding cultists, unspeakable horrors, and forces far beyond his understanding in a desperate attempt to rescue his family before they are offered up in blood.
It Demands Sacrifice #1 features covers by Skottie Young, Tony Fleecs, Patrick Horvath, Mark Buckingham, Brett Bean, and more, and arrives in stores on October 7.

D’orc finds himself in the dark realms with a bad case of swamp ass. And by swamp ass, I mean Bog Monsters. Many of them. They aim on dragging him and the nice lady on the lake down into the depths with them. Will D’ORC escape with the help of Chicken and Shield, or will the very life of him be drained?
