WHAT: Hasbro, a leading games, IP and toy company, premiered today season 1 of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Re-Ignition, an enhanced version of the classic action-packed series that started the POWER RANGERS phenomenon. Watch the first episode now on the Power Rangers Official YouTube Channel, with 2-3 all-new episodes dropping weekly until October 7th. In addition to the English channel, Re-Ignition is also available on the French, German and Spanish platforms.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Re-Ignition invites fans and a new generation of viewers to step back into the action-packed, humor-filled world of the original Rangers—now more vibrant than ever in a 4K experience. Featuring the beloved diverse cast, iconic villains, and unforgettable battles, this enhanced experience delivers the same legendary adventures through sharper detail and richer visuals. Whether you’re reliving the Mighty Morphin nostalgia or discovering the magic for the first time, Re-Ignition captures the spirit of the classic series while reintroducing the “teenagers with attitude” to brand-new audiences. After more than 30 years, POWER RANGERS still packs a punch, and Re-Ignition has arrived to show how the iconic brand has remained a global sensation. 

 

Official Synopsis: After 10,000 years of imprisonment, the evil sorceress Rita Repulsa and her loyal minions are freed when astronauts on a routine mission in space accidentally open her dumpster prison on the Moon. Filled with rage, Rita decides to conquer the nearest planet: Earth. But her arch nemesis –the heroic sage Zordon–has been patiently waiting in preparation for this day. With the assistance of his wisecracking robotic sidekick Alpha 5, Zordon recruits a team of five ‘teenagers with attitude’ –Jason, Zack, Kimberly, Billy, and Trini-to receive superpowers beyond their wildest dreams and defend the Earth as the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Aided by giant robotic vehicles modeled after dinosaurs called Zords, the Power Rangers fight back the evil alien hordes of Rita Repulsa.

Immortal Legend Batman: Kyle Higgins, Mat Groom, Erica D’Urso, and Dan Mora Take Batman and the Batman Family on a Cosmic Adventure Centuries into the Future!

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

CHICAGO, IL and BURBANK, CA (April 12, 2025) – During his spotlight panel at C2E2, writer Kyle Higgins (Radiant Black, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) and fan-favorite artist Dan Mora (Superman, Justice League Unlimited, Batman/Superman: World’s Finest) announced and revealed covers and concept art for a new comic book series, Immortal Legend Batman. Higgins and Mora will also be joined by writer Mat Groom (Ultraman, Inferno Girl Red) artist Erica D’Urso (Captain, Marvel, Inferno Girl Red), colorist Igor Monti, and letterer Becca Carey for this six-issue limited comic book series launching under DC’s Elseworlds banner.

Available for preorder beginning Friday, May 23, Immortal Legend Batman arrives at participating comic book shops and digital retailers on Wednesday, August 27. Drawing inspiration from sprawling sci-fi epics, Japanese tokusatsu superhero stories, classic Westerns and of course Batman’s own rich history, this series continues the proud Elseworlds tradition of exploring the core essence of classic DC heroes in thrilling new contexts.

“Certain projects are the perfect storm of timing, idea and creative team,” said Higgins. “Immortal Legend Batman has been years in the making, dating back to stunning designs that Mat and I first saw from Dan Mora. Obviously, we have a love and appreciation for Tokusatsu, and it’s influence on our books like Radiant Black and Inferno Girl Red. The opportunity to bring that love to a very unique version of Gotham, with very unique versions of these characters, with Mat, Erica, Igor, and Becca, along with our editor Matt Levine, who we worked with on Power Rangers, makes this beyond a perfect storm.”

“Batman is fiction’s greatest hero, and we wanted to find a way to take everything that’s so great about him—his immense determination, resilience and selflessness—and explore it in a totally new way,” said Groom. “So, we’re taking Batman to the stars, turning him into a wandering hero, exploring humanity’s final frontier… and searching out deadly threats he inadvertently released upon the galactic community.”

Many centuries from now, humanity becomes a galactic civilization with capital megacities on multiple planets and smaller outposts on dozens more. To conquer the vast distances between solar systems, humanity tapped into dark matter to bend space-time around spacecraft, from hulking colony vessels to one-man mech suits. In accessing this dark power, humanity broke the barrier between their universe and their universe’s shadow. This resulted in the creation of “Shadows”: mindless, soulless apparitions craving nothing but violence and destruction. Due to the actions of these Shadow creatures, newly colonized worlds were brought to the brink of collapse. But three warriors found a way to access the energy that bound their universe to the shadow universe, becoming “immortal legends”: Immortal Legend Batman, Immortal Legend Robin and Immortal Legend Nightwing!

For more information on Immortal Legend Batman and the World’s Greatest Super Heroes, follow @DCOfficial on social media and visit the DC website at https://www.dc.com. A robust selection of classic new Elseworlds series is available to read with a subscription to the DC UNIVERSE INFINITE digital subscription platform (DCUI).

RCPH Bolt Bites – January 2025

Leave a comment

Welcome to Ranger Command Power Hour’s BOLT BITES article series! BOLT BITES is a semi-monthly to monthly summary of all the news happening for Power Rangers merchandise, fan works, entertainment and other news.

Have something Ranger news related that you found? Are you an artist looking to promote your work? Do you make Power Rangers content on YouTube or Twitch? Drop us a line at rangercommandpowerhour@gmail.com or on our social media channels.

And now onto January 2025’s BOLT BITES.

11 YEARS

Today, January 25th, 2025, Ranger Command Power Hour celebrates the eleventh anniversary of the release of the first episode of the podcast.

I (Eric) just want to thank all of our listeners, supporters and friends of the show for sticking with the site and podcast, especially over the past couple of years. The back half of last year was incredibly draining and busy both personally and professionally. This affected the release of episodes of the podcast since family will always take first priority in my life.

The plan for the future remains the same as I’ve stated on social media and Patreon. Extra Episodes will end with Extra Episode 100 and newer episodes of the podcast will come out when they come out as time and news permits. Right now, the only new stories being told are from the comics, specifically the new series Power Rangers Prime from BOOM! Studios. Future podcast episodes will focus on the comics with interviews and discussions from the Ranger Command Comic Squadron.

Thanks again and here’s to the new year!
