The Black Eye Club Pt. 1

Michael Copper makes stars—and the price is hidden in plain sight. The Black Eye Club Pt. 1 opens the Rippaverse's darkest book, from Sylvia Soska, created by Eric July.

When another global superstar is found dead under mysterious circumstances, the polished empire of Copper Records begins to fracture. At the center stands Michael Copper—a charismatic mogul whose success is built on fame, fear, and something far darker than anyone signing his contracts suspects.

The first part lays the groundwork for the music-industry-horror saga: the glamour, the bodies, and the supernatural rot underneath an empire built on making people famous. It's the Rippaverse at its most unsettling.

The first chapter of The Black Eye Club, created by Eric July and written by Sylvia Soska—setting up the conclusion in Pt. 2 and Michael Copper's collision with Lilian Ronashi across the horror line. For collectors, the debut of a key Rippaverse villain in his own series.

For collectors, it's the first chapter of Michael Copper's story; for new readers, it's a self-contained hook into the darkest corner of the Rippaverse before the conclusion in Pt. 2.

Created by Eric July and written by Sylvia Soska—Canadian filmmaker and comic creator, one of the line's defining horror voices.
