    2022 was the year I went all in on independent comics and that was due to finding out about the Rippaverse and being one of the first to get in on Isom #1. I loved Isom #1 as it was a great launching pad for a universe that has a lot of stories to tell that will have awesome characters that engage in action and intrigue. Isom #2 expands on the first book and clues the reader even more into just how deep and expansive the Rippaverse is sure to be.

    Isom #1’s art was fantastic and I described it as popping of the page and somehow the second issue is better. The artwork from Cliff is fantastic and Gabe’s colorwork shines through even though a lot of the scenes have a darker color palate. The lettering is fantastic as well and there was only one error that took me a bit out of my reading experience.

    A lot happens in this book as it is over 100 pages but it mostly focuses on Isom and introducing some new characters that are sure to be important latter in the ill-advised arc and other stories in the Rippaverse. The writing and art meld together to make this an immersive experience and since this is a continuation of a story there is more payoff but it still ends on a cliff hanger and it will leave you wanting to find out what happens next.

    To conclude: I highly recommend Isom #2 as it takes the launching pad that was established in Isom #1 and builds on it. The focus is mostly on Isom but with new and returning characters added to the mix as well there is plenty to payoff in Isom #3, Yaira #1 and Alphacore #1 which I’m sure will be as stellar as Isom has been. I had high hopes for the Rippaverse from a story telling perspective with Isom #1 and Isom #2 confirms that those expectations were not unreasonable at all. The Rippaverse will be home well done and long term storytelling that will be full of action, intrigue and superheroes and villains!

    Go to the Rippaverse site to get in on Isom #2’s pre-order campaign until August 27th!
