Ripcord is story about stopping at nothing to save your family, even as the world collapses around you.
The drug known as "Ripcord" has become the scourge of the world. It's extremely addictive, and it doesn't just alter your perception, it fundamentally alters who you are. Ripcord users have their whole bodies taken over by the substance, and it transforms them into mindless, frenzied killers who want nothing but to destroy. This makes every place the drug has grown popular dangerous.
Dillon is one of thousands who has lost a family member to Ripcord, but unlike so many others, she's going to do something about it. Her sister has gone missing in the Outback, and Dillon is going to stop at nothing--and let nothing stop her--until she brings her home.
This volume collects Ripcord in its entirety (The Cold Open and issues #1-5).
