Description

From Eric July's Alphacore—written by Bane co-creator Chuck Dixon, with art by Joe Bennett (Immortal Hulk)—the complete debut arc collected in one volume. The badge before the cape.

Bryan Solari, Braxwell, and Ingrid Valdez are Florespark's Alphacore unit—the elite metahuman officers handling the cases ordinary cops can't. The complete debut arc is here: the unit's formation, the Eagle's Nest disaster and the reconstruction that follows, a corporate hero with a media entourage muscling into their territory, a heat-throwing villain waiting in the wreckage—and the bigger alliance that starts taking shape by the arc's end. Collects Alphacore #1, #2, and #3 with bonus material and behind-the-scenes commentary.

The launchpad for the Rippaverse's first major crossover event, Exclave (beginning 11/03/26)—the Alphacore unit takes center stage alongside the Horseman in Alphacore/Horseman: Exclave #1 (11/24/26). Bryan Solari's origin runs through The Great War of Separation, and the unit's story continues across the Rippaverse line. The collected edition is the natural entry point for new readers and the collector format for established fans.

208 pages, Trade Paperback. From Eric July, creator of Alphacore and founder of Rippaverse Publishing, with writer Chuck Dixon and interior art by Joe Bennett. Colors by J. Brown.
