Ignition Exclusive cover by Patricia Martin

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 latest foray into the darker depths of humanity from writer Cullen Bunn (The Sixth Gun, Deluge) is brought to vivid life by artist Aneke (DC Comics Bombshells, Bylines in Blood) and colorist Patricia Martin (Dune: The Graphic Novel). Ripcord is an ultraviolent exploitation comic in the vein of movies like Mad Max and Near Dark. Each issue features a cover by Jorge Fornes, the artist of Rorschach and Danger Street.

Every family has problems – but the Savage Family has actual monsters.

Jordan Savage is a normal 16-year-old kid barely holding it together after his parents’ recent divorce. His twin sister Winter is his opposite in every way—including how she is coping with the changes in the Savage family’s lives.

And those changes are bigger than they could even imagine. They are about to find out that the boring, bickering parents they’ve lived with this whole time are secretly ancient deathdealing barbarian warriors. They have been living quietly for 3000 years, having defeated their nemesis—the evil sorcerer warlord Farklar the Fleshless—leaving the world safe for humanity. Only now, Farklar has returned, and his army of hideous Mordorks are about to devour Des Moines. Now the Savages are piled in Mom’s minivan headed for Iowa to wage war against Black Magic Armageddon. Jordan is freaking out, Winter thinks it’s all pretty cool, and no one is sure if Mom and Dad can get along long enough to save civilization from destruction.

Just Brutal is an action-packed thrill ride that stacks the trauma of family against the challenge of saving the world. Written by Dennis Hopeless (Heart Eyes; Spider-Woman) with art by Brahm Revel (Guerillas; TMNT: Jennika) and colorist Marissa Louise (Mr. Terrific).

The White Cell vampires pull the strings of power-hungry U.S. President Andrew Cross, and an underground resistance network evolves!

Heather is taken in by a collective of individualist freedom fighters known as the Art League. They share revelations about her saga at the hospital, but her patience wears thin as they delay the search for her newborn son. Are these caretakers or just new captors?

Meanwhile, Son’s crew swaps intel with Blood Runners—dissenting vampires who have sworn off human blood but will never shake their menacing reputation—and the iron-fisted Reverend Hawk begins a savage secession campaign.

The rulers and rebels all have teeth in this continuation of B. Clay Moore and Mack Chater’s supernatural political horror!

The experiments are working! Etta is starting to see the effects that the mysterious flowers that dot the landscape around the Meridian Fellowship can have on rabbits, and her benefactors are urging her to start testing her theories on human beings. She isn’t sure which terrifies her more: the potential consequences of such dangerous actions, or the agony of not knowing what amazing things her formulas could do for her fellow man.

Yet, the more she thinks she understands how the science works, the less she comprehends the influence the otherworldly forces that fuel her experiments are having over her own life.

This tale of cosmic horror from Stephanie Williams (Wonder Woman) and Letizia Cadonici (House of Slaughter) intensifies.

The rain continues to fall, and the corridors continue to flood, bringing more monsters into the prison. The surviving guards and inmates are starting to realize, however, that the deadliest threat they are facing is themselves. If the infighting doesn’t get them, then the sins of their past will. When faced with the spectral embodiments of their crimes, some of the women would rather perish in the jaws of the evil creatures that are hunting them. Can Maggie lead one last push to find an escape before it’s too late?

Deluge reaches its penultimate issue, as writer Cullen Bunn (Harrow Country, Deadpool Destroys the Marvel Universe) and artist Marika Cresta (Star Wars: High Republic) open the floodgates of fear!
