COMIC PREVIEW – MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS: SHATTERED GRID SC

Today, August 7th, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Shattered Grid SC (Softcover) will be released from Boom Studios. Below you will find preview pages of the collection as well as the main cover.

THE BIGGEST COMIC BOOK EVENT IN POWER RANGERS HISTORY COLLECTED IN ONE VOLUME!

Lord Drakkon—a twisted alternate-reality version of Tommy Oliver (AKA the Mighty Morphin Green Ranger)—and his newly reformed army are crossing dimensions in order to execute an all-out attack that threatens the very existence of every Power Ranger ever!

Collects Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #25-30, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Free Comic Book Day Special, and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Shattered Grid #1.

Host Eric (@trekkieb47) had a chance to read the collection in advance and shares his review:

“What else can be said that hasn’t been already said about Shattered Grid?

For Power Rangers, it is the most ambitious story-line ever told for the franchise. The twist in Issue 25 alone was enough to drive a second printing for that issue and the next one. With cameos and team-ups spanning across the whole 25 years of Power Rangers, Shattered Grid truly felt like a celebration of the franchise.

The Soft Cover collection is nicely laid out, with a special two-page summary in the beginning. The first preview page takes art from Hendry Prasetya’s introduction of Lord Drakkon and the events of that lead to the world of the Coinless. The second preview drawn by Dan Mora, summarizes the events of Shattered Grid from Go Go Power Rangers with the Ranger Slayer.

And that is my only problem with the Softcover collection. The Go Go Power Rangers portion of Shattered Grid is not included, neither is the Shattered Grid Annual. Those will be reserved for the much larger Hardcover collection coming out in November. While I understand the logistics those additional issues would be in terms of size for a softcover, it feels like new fans will miss out on the greater context of the event.

Despite that, this collection is very nice if you want to get into the heart of the story. There’s also a 40 page cover gallery with gorgeous artwork for those that missed out on collecting those.

No matter how you read it or collect it, Shattered Grid is a must read for fans of Power Rangers both new and old.”
