Alphacore #3

Florespark is still rebuilding from the Eagle's Nest disaster. The Alphacore unit--Bryan Solari, Braxwell, and operations chief Ingrid Valdez--are still doing the cleanup the rest of the city can't. And when a corporate hero with a media entourage muscles into their territory and a heat-throwing villain shows up at the same disaster site, Bryan finds out exactly how much he's willing to take to protect his team. By the time the smoke clears, Bryan is scorched, Braxwell is bloodied--and a bigger alliance is starting to take shape.

Alphacore is the superpowered cops of Florespark--a unit handling the cases nobody else can, with all the politics, paperwork, and personal cost the badge brings. The conclusion of the debut arc collects in The Definitive Alphacore Vol. 1 (on sale 10/02/2026), and the team takes center stage in the Rippaverse's first major crossover event, Exclave, beginning November 2026.
