Isom #3 - by Eric July (Paperback)

Book Synopsis Family in the crosshairs, power at its limits. Isom #3 brings the Ill-Advised arc to a powerful close, from Rippaverse founder Eric July. When his family becomes a target, Avery Silman is forced fully back into action. As he battles a growing criminal threat, he has to confront the limits of his powers and his place in a changing Florespark. New revelations land and tensions rise, and the hero who tried to walk away discovers exactly what he's still willing to do for the people he loves. The Ill-Advised arc closes with the cost finally coming due. The third chapter of the series that launched the Rippaverse, completing the throughline begun in Isom #1 and #2 --and a strong jumping-on point ahead of the character's role across the wider line. For readers collecting the foundational run, Isom #3 completes the opening movement of the Rippaverse's signature character and clears the runway for everything Avery Silman does across the line afterward--and stands as the emotional peak of the founder-written flagship run.
