Orcs in Space #3 Covers — Including a Stunning Matt Sheean & Malachi Ward Variant!

Things are moving at a fast and furious pace with Orcs in Space! While you still have a couple days to pre-order the first double issue of OIS it with your local comics shop, but we already have the solicitation for issue #3 in the new PREVIEWS catalog!

This issue boasts two covers: Above you have my standard cover for the issue, showcasing the villainous Space Rats! These steampunk by way of the British Royal Navy (with a touch of the Borg) characters were a ton of fun to design (those of you who know me know I have a soft spot for ratties 🐀 ). Here are some of my character designs for them:

Next up, we have a straight up gorgeous interpretation of the orcs by two of my favorite comics creators, Malachi Ward and Matt Sheean! I was totally blown away by this amazing, painterly portrait of Mongtar, Gor, and Kravis (sporting five fingers on each hand!) on an alien world, gazing as translucent crystalline space squids drift by in the interstellar void… So beautiful and grandiose! Here is the art sans trade dress so you can really drink it in:

Both these covers are now available to preorder from your local comic book shop, just show them the info below and they will set you up!
