From the co-creator of Bane comes the conclusion of \u003ci\u003eAlphacore\u003c\/i\u003e's debut arc--and the launchpad for everything that comes next in the Rippaverse.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFlorespark 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAlphacore\u003c\/i\u003e 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.
