Experience the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers like you never have before
LOS ANGELES, CA (February 8, 2024) – BOOM! Studios, together with leading toy and game company Hasbro, announced that MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS: THE RETURN #1, written by the original Pink Ranger herself, Amy Jo Johnson along with co-writer Matt Hotson and artist Nico Leon (Ms. Marvel), colorist Francesco Segala with Gloria Martinelli, and letterer Ed Dukeshire, has sold out at the distributor level!
In response to the truly morphinominal support from retailers and fans, BOOM! Studios has announced MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS: THE RETURN #1 SECOND PRINTING (DEC238622), featuring character design cover art by Dan Mora, available in stores March 6, 2024.
“We’re thrilled to see Ranger fans worldwide jumping into comic books for the first time with THE RETURN!” said Filip Sablik, President, Publishing & Sales, BOOM! Studios. “MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS history is being made with the amazing team of Amy Jo, Matt, Nico, Francesco, and Ed and we are so excited for everyone to experience their fresh reimagining of the characters we all know and love!”
In an alternate universe, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers defeated Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd, but at a terrible cost…and in the wake of that tragedy, the team went their separate ways.
Twenty-two years later, the long-disbanded team reunites to mourn the losses of beloved friends, but Zack and Billy have some unexpected information to share: Jason–the Red Ranger, who has long been operating as a lone vigilante–has disappeared.
Will the remaining Rangers be able to track him down, especially with a mysterious figure in pursuit?
