Double-issue debut! Gor, Kravis, and Mongtar are three orcs trying to survive while on the run from everything and everyone on
their homeworld. When the naive bureaucrats from StarBleep land on their planet, the orcs unwittingly steal the most advanced
ship in the fleet and blast into the dankest reaches of the outer galactigon. Now the universe’s most wanted, the orcs befriend
the ship's AI, D.O.N.A., in a bid to get free… but will that be enough to escape StarBleep?
IMPORTANT: This premiere issue contains both issues #1 and #2!

“What would happen if orcs stole a ship and were flung into space? I pitched the question to Justin over eight years ago, and the idea never left
our heads. Born from a fascination with orcs, who haven't been given much of a spotlight (always the side characters—the dumb henchmen of some
greater, evil force), and our love for space voyage shows like Star Trek and Farscape, we knew the combination would be exciting.” —Rashad Gheith
"When Rashad told me about Orcs in Space, I knew right away it was a fantastic idea. Three dumb orcs at the helm of a ship far beyond their
understanding. Going on this journey with them, watching them bumble around with powers way beyond their comprehension. It's going to be
fun to watch them grow and learn how to harness sci-fi to their advantage." —Justin Roiland
"My brother Rashad and I used to go to the comic store as kids and dream about making them someday. Later, when I met Justin, we both made
trips to get comics and talk about how much we loved them. It’s a natural fit for us to be finally making a comic book together! A cosmic adventure
that's peppered with zaniness and a bit of fantasy-style lore. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted to make, and we have an unlimited budget in François,
who is designing the whole world almost exactly how we imagined it. Get ready for some galactic mayhem!" —Abed Gheith
"Crafting this series has been one of the most fun writing experiences of my career. I can't wait for people to get their hands on this, I know they
are going to love it." —Michael Tanner
“Drawing Orcs in Space has been a ball. The series brings together so many things I've unabashedly loved all my life, from barbarian warriors to
high-tech spacecraft, and blends it all together into a weird and funky universe. Drawing this book makes me feel like a kid again! Working with
the wonderful DJ Chavis on colors, each issue I am trying to create something that's full of action, humor, and layers of detail. I can't wait for people
to get their hands on this book!" —François Vigneault
