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.
