COMIC PREVIEW – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 45

On Wednesday, November 27th, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 45 will be released from Boom Studios. Below you will find a preview and review of the issue as well as the main cover and variants.

NECESSARY EVIL CONTINUES! The ALL NEW OMEGA RANGERS team up with the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers for the first time! But as they battle evil forces on the moon, it’s Jason—now the Red Omega Ranger—who must face Lord Zedd alone! No matter who wins, nothing will ever be the same for any Power Ranger…

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

“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 45 feels like the start of the endgame for Necessary Evil. This issue eliminates one threat only to replace it with a potentially greater foe. And perhaps, that’s the whole point of the Power Rangers. There would be no need for them without the evils that are necessary for their existence.

The majority of this arc for both GGPR and MMPR gives us a deeper understanding to Jason, who increasingly realizes the weight of his leadership and consequences of his actions. Artist Daniele di Nicuolo executes that emotional weight on Jason’s face perfectly in this issue.

Without spoiling anything, there are a couple twists in this issue that surprised me, even though hints of what is to come have been shown in future solicitations. It will be very interesting to see how the events of this issue will change the landscape of the comic.”

COMIC PREVIEW – Go Go Power Rangers Issue 25

Tomorrow, Wednesday, November 13th, Go Go Power Rangers Issue 25 will be released from Boom Studios. Below you will find a preview and review of the issue as well as the main cover and variants.

NECESSARY EVIL CONTINUES! The Secret Origin of the OMEGA RANGERS continues as Jason and the Blue Emissary search for new recruits to the ALL NEW POWER RANGER TEAM. But when Zordon and Alpha-5 go missing, Jason must choose what’s more important – his friends or protecting the universe from the fallout of SHATTERED GRID!

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

“Go Go Power Rangers issue 25 starts off with Tommy Oliver after losing his Green Ranger powers. Earlier in this arc, he left the team to focus on being alone and trying to find his place. This event also happened in the show, and this issue specifically slots perfectly into the events leading up to and during ‘White Light’.

What’s great about this issue, and the Necessary Evil arc as a whole, is giving more context and background to what we have seen in the show. While the Boom! Studios comics are their own universe where events in the show still play out in a modern setting, it’s fun to imagine the events of the comic happening to the cast of the show. Want to know why Zordon and Alpha-5 initially disappeared during the events of  ‘White Light’? It’s explained with more detail in this issue.

I also enjoyed the small return of a familiar character that played an important role in Shattered Grid and less so in Beyond The Grid. It’s clear the writers are taking the opportunity to not only expand the lore of the show, but the comics as well. While readers can probably guess where the story is going because of ‘Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers’, I am sure there are surprises that will make us wonder what’s in store next for Necessary Evil.”

Master Vile and the Metallic Armor

It’s time to Ranger Up with @trekkieb47 @secretrangerfan & @ZachLaVoy as they talk all things Power Rangers on the Four Eyed Radio Network with RANGER COMMAND POWER HOUR!

In our second Extra Episode of the month, brought to you by our supporters on Patreon, Eric and Zach get spooky for Halloween with Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers “Master Vile and the Metallic Armor”.

Does this multi-part episode hold up after 24 years? Do shiny new suits really make the Ranger? Is the Blue Globbor the most disgusting monster of the entire franchise? We explore the answers to these questions as well as the return of Robo Goat, bad Netflix subtitles and “kiyaing”.

Additionally, we cover the latest news including Wave 3 and 4 of Hasbro’s Lightning Collection, Power Rangers at Europe and U.K. conventions and some shout outs to a few listeners.

Globbors are gross.

COMIC PREVIEW – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 44

Leave a comment

This Wednesday, October 30th, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 44 will be released from Boom Studios. Below you will find a preview of the issue as well as the main cover and variants.

NECESSARY EVIL continues as the Omega Rangers return to Earth and meet the Power Rangers for the first time! But if they want to defeat Lord Zedd together, Jason, Trini and Zack will have to keep their identities a secret from their friends! Features the first appearance of the Omega Ranger Zords!

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

“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Issue 44 kicks into high gear when the Omega Rangers come to the rescue of the Power Rangers of Earth. The tables are quickly turned on Dayne in one of the most intense Zord sequences of the comic to date.

While we don’t have a concrete end time for the conclusion of this arc, it seems we are starting to reach the climax of Necessary Evil. With the Omega Rangers meeting the Earth team for the first time, the mystery still remains on their identities. Tensions arise on both Ranger Teams that will have long lasting impacts for the rest of the arc.

The writing is, as always, tight from Ryan Parrott with more snappy dialogue and in-jokes. The art is very kinetic and detailed, as always, and we can’t get enough of Daniele Di Nicuolo’s style. Particularly in this issue, Walter Baiamonte’s colors shine… literally with brilliant lens flares on Earth to the dark and cooler tones of space and the moon.

The conclusion sets up a battle that, personally, I have been waiting for.”
