Comic Attack – Orphan and the Five Beasts #1
James Stokoe, the creative mind behind Aliens: Dead Orbit and Orc Stain, comes out swinging with the brand-new kung-fu epic Orphan and the Five Beasts!
Spurred on by her master’s dying words, the adopted warrior “Orphan Mo” seeks to find and kill five former disciples who now threaten the land with corruption from their demonic powers. Part Five Deadly Venoms and part surreal grindhouse, James Stokoe brings his knack for ultra-detailed fantasy and over-the-top violence to this classic tale of revenge.
Orphan and the Five Beasts #1 (of four) will be in comic shops on March 17, 2021.The four issues feature interlinked covers illustrated by James Stokoe himself.
