The Ripperverse is launched

So Eric July, a known Youtuber that covers comics and how the wokeness affected the overall industry has been talking about making his own comics for years and has finally done it.

Buying his own warehouse, creating his own website, basically doing everything so that he is the owner of the whole shebang and doesn't have to answer to anyone but himself.

The first comic of his new universe, Isom # 1 was launched Monday and has already went over a million in orders. Unlike something from Indiegogo or Kickstarter, the book is complete, it's just a matter of printing and shipping enough copies as the orders come in.

So far from what we know, Isom is about a guy that became superhero for a while, but an incident made him see that isn't the life for him, so he moved on to live a peaceful farm life. When his sister calls him up to find a missing family member, he's about to see himself dragged back into the life again.

He's been doing a good job keeping spoilers out to the point we don't know his powers yet, but the art and all the characters so far look top notch.


A big part of this is also just making a fun action packed comic that doesn't include modern day politics. A comic book about a black man made by a black man but the entire premise isn't just 'look how black I am'. So far the left has been flipping out over his success calling him everything from a scam to flat out the n-word despite being 'the tolerant left'. Reddit is even banning people that talk about it. The jealous and envy is insane.

I plan to purchase a copy this weekend. I'll be reviewing it as soon as I get it, but this is gonna be a 96 page monster, so that's gonna take a while.
