THE KUNG-FU MASTERPIECE BY JAMES STOKOE RETURNS WITH “ORPHAN AND THE FIVE BEASTS: BATH OF BLOOD”

Reimagining of the Shaw Brothers’ kung-fu classics continues

Dark Horse Comics presents the continued saga of James Stokoe’s Orphan Mo and her quest of revenge in Orphan and the Five Beasts: Bath of Blood. Picking up where the first series Orphan and the Five Beasts left off, writer, artist, and letterer Stokoe—the creator behind Orc Stain and Aliens: Dead Orbit—is set to bring kung-fu madness to comic books shops everywhere in September 2025.

Orphan Mo is back! After having dispatched two of the five Beasts tasked to her by her late master, the hunt begins for the third. But Mo isn’t the only one following the trail, as a whole new cast of eccentric and dangerous players arrive to join the fray.

Join in on the over-the-top action when Orphan and the Five Beasts: Bath of Blood #1 (of 4) arrives in comic shops on September 24, 2025, for $4.99. Visit Comic Shop Locator for more details and stores near you.
