COMIC PREVIEW – Go Go Power Rangers Issue 22

This Wednesday, August 14th,  Go Go Power Rangers Issue 22 will be released from Boom Studios. Below you will find a preview of the issue as well as the main cover and variants.

Faced with the terrible consequences of a war they cannot remember, the Power Rangers are left to pick up the pieces of Shattered Grid, but the effect on the Morphing Grid may be more than they can handle. When put to the test, what will they choose—the world, or their team?

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

With the cliffhanger of the last issue, readers were left wondering how Go Go Power Rangers would tie into the overall arc of Necessary Evil. After last month’s release of MMPR Issue 41, we got an answer when the Blue Emissary was revealed as the Omega Rangers’ mentor.

Much like the Shattered Grid event from last year, Go Go Power Rangers serves to give context and background for the events happening in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. It’s this duality that makes reading these comics a lot of fun.

Once again writers Ryan Parrott & Sina Grace deliver snappy dialogue and emotional weight after the events of Tommy losing his Green Ranger powers. A line about an enemy mentioned in MMPR 41 becomes the main villain for this issue of Go Go. The return of another character makes things even more interesting for one of our heroes.

Go Go Power Rangers isn’t simply a companion comic, it’s essential reading.

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.”

COMIC PREVIEW – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 41

This Wednesday, July 24th, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 41 will be released from Boom Studios. Below you will find a preview of the issue as well as the main cover and variants.

The all new covert team of Power Rangers has been revealed – and it’s Jason, Zack, Trini, and a BRAND NEW RANGER joining them to form the OMEGA RANGERS! But who is this all-new Power Ranger? Where did they come from? And why are the Omega Rangers hiding their existence from the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers?

As the secrets behind their mission – as well as their deception of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers – are revealed, a deadly new threat, summoned from the depths of space by Lord Zedd, arrives on Earth with only one mission…take out the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, once and for all!

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

After last month’s “to be continued” page reveal, I was wondering if we would get answers to this new team of Omega Rangers. Well, I am wondering no more since Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 41 completely focuses on Jason, Trini and Zack as the Omega Rangers!

At San Diego Comic Con, Boom! Studios displayed three Omega Ranger helmets ahead of this issue’s release. To see them in this issue of the comic together with the suit is really impressive. That also describes this whole issue.

We’re quickly thrown into the new universe that Jason, Trini and Zack find themselves in. New alien locations are shown, new side characters are introduced. It feels natural and a bit chaotic, but in a good way, as writer Ryan Parrott leaves us with even more questions. After reading the issue, I want to find out even more.

There are definitely a couple surprises that readers will not want to miss. I was wondering how Necessary Evil would tie into both series of the Power Ranger’s comics. Go Go Power Ranger’s Issue 21’s ending definitely informed what was going on in this issue. I like that both series play off of each other much like last year’s Shattered Grid event.

With Ryan Parrott writing for both series, the level of cohesion in the story really works for me. In addition to the Dan Mora story covers, it feels like all of pieces of the puzzle will come together by the end of this arc. I think this will keep readers guessing and wanting more.

The art from Daniele Di Nicuolo continues to impress. During Shattered Grid, he quickly became my favorite artist in the entire comic series. I was elated that he came back for Necessary Evil. For this issue in particular, the fights and morphs are filled with kinetic energy and the detail is very well done.

Colorists Walter Baiamonte and Katia Ranalli make this new alien universe vibrant and colorful, bringing to life Daniele’s fantastic artwork.

With Danye from the previous issue and the new worlds and aliens in this story, the universe of the Power Rangers continues to expand. One of the things I liked about the “Zordon Era” of the tv series was the universe building they managed to achieve. This issue expands that concept to another level and makes it a must read.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Meet For First Time in New Event Series From BOOM! Studios

Road to SDCC 2019: Morphin Power Takes On Turtle Power In Historic New Comic Book Event

LOS ANGELES, CA (July 15, 2019) – BOOM! Studios, under license by Hasbro, Inc. and in partnership with IDW and Nickelodeon, today announced an all-new five-issue limited series event –  MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS/TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES! Written by Ryan Parrott (Power Rangers: Necessary Evil) and illustrated by Simone di Meo (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Venom Annual), the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers fight – and maybe team up with – the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the first time in comic book history beginning December 2019.

The Power Rangers arrive in New York City to find Tommy Oliver – AKA The Mighty Morphin Green Ranger – but soon discover he’s joined forces with the villainous Shredder and the Foot Clan! As the Rangers are sent reeling by this betrayal, they’re confronted by another (fr)enemy – the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! Can these heroes find a way to work together to defeat the bad guys and save the world from total destruction?!

MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS/TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES #1 (OF 5) features a main cover by Dan Mora (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Once & Future), with Turtle Ranger Helmet variant covers by Goñi Montes (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) and more!

New York Times bestselling author Ryan Parrott was one of the key architects of the landmark Power Rangers: Shattered Grid comic book event and currently writes both Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Saban’s Go Go Power Rangers at BOOM! Studios, along with creator-owned projects Volition and Oberon for Aftershock Comics.

“Honestly, I’m pretty certain keeping this project a secret has taken years off my life. These two iconic franchises were my TV parents, each teaching me valuable life lessons thirty minutes at a time. The Power Rangers and the Ninja Turtles are too insanely awesome not to bring together. I mean, they’re both color-coded teenage martial artists who fight monsters! It just makes too much sense!” said writer Ryan Parrott. “A huge thank you to Hasbro and Nickelodeon for letting me play with so many of their wonderful toys, as it is truly an honor to be a part of such an exciting crossover. I’m the luckiest kid in the world, and I cannot wait for you all to see what we’ve been putting together.”

Simone di Meo is a comic book artist from Italy. He has recently worked as the artist on Mighty Morphin Power Rangers for BOOM! Studios and Venom Annual #1,Immortal Hulk: The Best Defense, and Old Man Logan Annual for Marvel Entertainment.

“It’s an honor to be able to work on this amazing project. I’m very happy to be a part of this, one of the crossovers I’ve been waiting for since I was a kid,” said artist Simone di Meo. “Drawing these two teams together is a dream come true!”

Currently, Power Rangers is celebrating 26 continuous years on the air, making it one of the longest running kids’ live-action series in television history with nearly 900 episodes aired to date. Created by Haim Saban and launched in 1993 with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, the franchise celebrates its milestone anniversary year with the 26th season, Power Rangers Beast Morphers currently airing on Saturdays at 8 a.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon in the U.S.

“No one could possibly love the Power Rangers or the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles more than the creative team at the helm of this epic event! Which means they’ve got every dream team up scenario you can think of jam-packed into the pages of every issue.” said Dafna Pleban, Editor, BOOM! Studios. “Monsters will grow. Shells will get kicked. And that thing you’re really hoping we’ll do? Yeah, that’s in here, too.”

Print copies of MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS/TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES #1  will be available on December 4, 2019 at local comic book shops (use comicshoplocator.com to find the nearest one), or at the BOOM! Studios webstore. Digital copies can be purchased from content providers like comiXology, iBooks, Google Play, and the BOOM! Studios app.

Softcover collections of MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS, SABAN’S GO GO POWER RANGERS, and other Power Rangers releases from BOOM! Studios, including original graphic novels such as the upcoming Saban’s Power Rangers: The Psycho Path, are available everywhere books are sold.

IDW’s extensive library of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles graphic novels – new stories tied into the Rise of the TMNT cartoon, remastered Eastman & Laird classics, IDW’s critically-acclaimed ongoing saga (now approaching its landmark 100th issue and available as the TMNT: The IDW Collection), and more – are available now at comic book shops and booksellers everywhere.

Leave a comment

It’s Time for a Gold Rush! Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid v1.3 has been released! The most exciting part is the announcement of the Season 1 Season Pass characters, as well as the anticipated CROSS-PLAY and CROSS-PROGRESSION for Xbox One and Nintendo Switch!

Get the full details below as well as new screenshots and video courtesy of nWay Games!

Battle for the Grid v1.3 roster

San Francisco – July 10, 2019 – Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid v1.3 Update

We will be releasing our first two Season One characters: Trey of Triforia and Jen Scotts, which will be followed by Lord Zedd in a future update. Players can purchase each individual character digitally for $6.99 or the full Season One Pass for $14.99, which includes all three characters along with a bonus character skin.

Trey of Triforia: The original Gold Zeo Ranger, Trey was an alien from the planet Triforia who came to Earth to help the Zeo Rangers battle the Machine Empire. There, he was attacked and split into three separate beings, forcing him to temporarily transfer his Gold Ranger powers to veteran ex-Ranger Jason Lee Scott.

Jen Scotts: Jen Scotts assumed the role of leader of the Time Force when her fiancé, the Red Time Force Ranger, was killed by an escaping criminal named Ransik. Fearless, determined and compassionate, Jen and her team did everything they could to track down Ransik and bring him to justice.

Lord Zedd (Coming Soon): The self-proclaimed “Emperor of Evil,” Lord Zedd has conquered and enslaved much of the galaxy. Initially leaving the “insignificant” Earth for Rita Repulsa to conquer, he returns to punish her for her failure and finish what she started.

Jason Lee Scott – Red Dragon Shield (skin): After Tommy Oliver, the Green Mighty Morphin Power Ranger, was killed by Lord Drakkon, an evil version of Tommy from an alternate dimension, Jason inherited the Dragon Shield and Dragon Dagger. With their added strength and the ability to summon the Dragonzord, Jason was able to lead the other Rangers in the fight against Lord Drakkon.

Also available will be the second free update (v1.3) that introduces several previously unreleased features.

  • The v1.3 update vastly improves the game’s social play and matchmaking, including Direct Match, which lets friends or any two specific players match up against each other.
  • The game now also enables crossplay between Nintendo Switch and Xbox One, where players across the two gaming platforms can battle against each other in Ranked, Casual, or Direct Matches.
  • Crossplay helps players find matches faster against similarly skilled players and opens up a larger matchmaking pool, making the game more competitive.
  • Crossplay is enabled by nWayPlay, nWay’s recently announced game development platform, which offers a player ID and social system, allowing friends to find each other across platforms.
  • nWayPlay also enables cross-progression between Nintendo Switch and Xbox One, so players can carry progress made on one platform to another.

Both the Season One Pass and the free update are available for digital download via the PlayStation Store, Nintendo eShop and Microsoft Store. More information is at https://battleforthegrid.com/.
