Santwan: Exclave #2 - Eric July;Ricardo Jaime;Tatto Caballero;The Invisible Art Studio

A mercenary's rules don't survive a war like this. Santwan: Exclave #2, the middle chapter of the tie-in arc from Rippaverse founder Eric July.

The tie-in's first issue told Santwan's origin on the event stage—who he was, what he walked away from, and why the crossover dragged him back in.

Now the fallout from the Devling King's war hits the streets he actually works. With Florespark and the wider world descending into chaos, Santwan is caught between old enemies, new threats, and a world that no longer plays by the rules he understood. For a hired gun, chaos used to mean opportunity. This time it means picking a side—and living with what the choice costs a man who built his life on never making one.

The middle chapter of the three-issue tie-in arc, running parallel to the Rippaverse's first major crossover event—the main series continues in Exclave #2 (1/12/27), and this arc concludes in Santwan: Exclave #3 (4/6/27). Every tie-in reads on its own; together they carry the Devling King's war across the whole line.
