COMIC REVIEW – Power Rangers Issue 9

By | |
Leave a comment

On Wednesday, July 21st, Power Rangers Issue 9 will be released from Boom Studios. A first look of this issue was shown a couple weeks ago.

POWER RANGERS #9 – The Omega Rangers return to a Safehaven, but all is not well with the new arrivals. After a confrontation in the streets, can Zack help bring peace… or will a friend’s need for revenge against the Hartunians be too much for one Ranger?

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

“After a narrow escape from one of the Empyreals’ attack on Hartunia last issue the Omega Rangers return to Safe Haven, but how safe is it really? 

I really enjoyed reading this issue. After months of galactic searching, the answers are starting to hit closer to the Omega Ranger’s home. It really feels like all of the pieces are falling into place. When dealing with a grand mythology of the Morphin Masters and Empyreals, Ryan Parrott does an incredible job balancing the side stories for all of the Rangers in this issue.

I think the standout is Zack’s story. Zack is put into a very tense situation that forces him to confront his decision from the previous issue head on. Zack’s continuous growth in this series is great to see, coming a long way from self describing himself as the jokester in Necessary Evil. That’s not to say the other Ranger’s don’t get a strong focus, because they do in spades. Jason is left with a decision he will need to address soon and Trini fully taps into her powerful potential.

Aside from artist Francesco Mortarino’s usual stunning art mixing action and character emotion, Moisés Hidalgo from the end run of the MMPR comic returns for a few guest pages. As seen in the preview below, this is a mini side story that sets up the focus for upcoming Issue 10’s Yale focused issue. I have always loved Hidalgo’s storybook look and this is no different. The end of the issue is particularly haunting and drawn beautifully with no dialogue needed. 

This issue is highly recommended.”

COMIC REVIEW – Mighty Morphin Issue 9

By | |
1 Comment

On Wednesday, July 14th, Mighty Morphin Issue 9 will be released from Boom Studios. A first look of this issue was shown a couple weeks ago.

Will the Power Rangers make the right choice and save Angel Grove? The battle of Angel Grove continues as the team grapples with a seemingly no-win scenario. Will they be able to defeat Lord Zedd and his surprising new ally, or will their home fall into chaos for good?

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

“Mighty Morphin Issue 9 packs a lot of story into one issue, answering some questions I’ve had as a reader from early on in the beginning of the Unlimited Power arc. While not a super action-packed issue, this story delves into the consequences Billy has to face for lying to his team, the fallout of life after the dome surrounding Angel Grove and the imprisonment of Zelya/Candice at the hands of Lord Zedd.

All of this story is exactly what I had been wanting since my review of the last issue, and in rereading the past issues the 3-week time skip is no longer a problem for me.

As seen below, the preview tells another part of Zordon’s past as Zartus confers with a Bandorian to surround the Zeo Crystal with an incantation of the Fire of Truth. This explains more of the Zeo Crystal’s origins as seen in the episode ‘Master Vile and the Metallic Armor’. I love that we have an explanation of Bandora’s Palace from the sentai footage and what we already seen of the Zeo Crystal’s story in the Caves of Deception. More context to the lore of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers will be explored in next month’s Mighty Morphin Issue 10 featuring the return of Dan Mora for that issue.

Writer Ryan Parrott delivers many excellent character moments and humor in this issue, touching on all of the main players and side characters. Artist Marco Renna keeps the dialogue heavy issue balanced with great set pieces, interesting close ups and angles, and detailed character art. Walter Baimonte’s (and team’s) colors are bright, with some color gradient backgrounds and fills sprinkled in to emphasize emotion of the character speaking. 

Mighty Morphin Issue 9 sets the stage for next month’s lore focused issue with answers people have been waiting for. A must read if you have been keeping up to date!”
