Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, #1

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (Single Issues)

by Kyle Higgins (Writer), Hendry Prasetya (Artist)

What's to With over four million viewers per week watching episodes that air three times a day, seven days a week; an awareness of above 90% for men and women ages 7-54; and a new film coming in 2017, Saban's Power Rangers are more popular than ever. Dive headfirst into our original, modern, ongoing Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series that will appeal to both nostalgic fans and new readers who enjoy epic, action-adventure fantasy stories.

What It Based on Saban's long-running Power Rangers franchise, five teens from Angel Grove High are granted superpowers and giant robot dinosaur Zords to defend Earth against the alien villain Rita Repulsa. When Repulsa creates an evil Green Power Ranger by brainwashing recent transfer student Tommy, the team is able to free him from her grasp and get him on their side. But with remnants of Repulsa's control still stirring in the back of Tommy's mind, he must confront the fact he may be more of a danger to his new team than a help. This is "Green Year One."

As a new member of the Power Rangers Tommy (Green Ranger) must come to terms with his responsibilities as a ranger and a new student at Angel Grove High.
The artwork is not bad and the theme of teenage angst even for a superhero is relevant and topical.
Not a bad read.

It's good, but missing something, and that something, unfortunately, I can't pinpoint. It wants to re-tell the story in its own way, and I respect that, but it's still a re-telling of a familiar story.

Seems okay so far, very slow. No action but a quick simulation. Character development was slow as well.

volume fundamental para entendermos melhor como foi a inserção do Tommy para o mighty morphin, coisa que a série fez porcamente, e além do mais tem o acréscimo da Rita na cabeça do Tommy para induzir ao erro e voltar para o lado do mal.

Os conflitos do próprio ranger verde de querer sempre se superar e de alguém melhor foi bem escrito, de vê as consequências que acontecem durante e pós é bem massa principalmente o que aconteceu na ponte com os zords

Por fim, estou ansioso para a próxima edição de mighty morphin

It’s intriguing, captivating and a good balance of appeal to both contemporary and nostalgic readers. There’s something though that’s missing... maybe a bit of intro/backstory? However, you’ll be hooked once you start.

Re-read for a project. I love how Tommy is characterized in this book, with the hallucinations and all.

I think I'm going to be a power ranger some day. The power rangers are really cool. I like Jason the best.

I enjoyed this issue overall as my relaunch into the comics it felt like the classic show. 8.5 out of 10. Solid art nothing spectacular though. Could’ve used more action.

I wanted to try to revisit my childhood. This was a great way to do so. As well as venture into a new type of reading material.

Bright and pretty

This is a good start to the story the art style is good but think need to be a power ranger fan to follow it better

[Chris Loan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Really solid issue! I love how Higgins brought the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers into modern times. Bulk and Skull would totally have a podcast/youtube channel. Love the writing on Tommy!

I see the start of a new obsession

Oh yeah just read #0 and #1 in quick succession. I can see myself blasting through these and being caught up by tomorrow. Very addictive!

I was a huge fan of the originals when I was a kid. Pretty much everyone else I know loved the Power Rangers too. Once the pioneer actors left and the spin-offs started, I quit.

It's just...not the same anymore.

THIS, though, brought back all the memories of waking up on Saturday mornings and switching on the box television set, tuning in to the kids channel and waiting for the show to come on.

Great times.

While the comic didn't offer anything too different, I loved how it still stuck to the original TV show, and nolstalgia won. Brilliant artwork too!

Was I entertained?
Who isn’t entertained by the Power Rangers? “Go, go Power Rangers!” [insert tune here]

Was there drama?
Well, Rita is still out to mess with Tommy’s head. I’d say that’s drama.

Am I looking forward to the next issue?
Yes, I’m dying to see when Tommy beats Rita’s mind games.

I don't know if it's just because I'm a super Power Rangers nerd, but I'm living for this comic so hard right now. I like how we've managed to take them from their early 90s setting and placed them in a more modern day/now time, and they still fit. I also really like the artwork for it. A+ work for me so far.

The nostalgia is strong in this one. It's entertaining, but I can't say that I loved it. There's not much depth to the characters yet. Maybe that's it.

[Ben · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was fun going back to the power rangers, and it's not written directly for kids so it doesn't feel as cheesy as the show did.

The same book twice in one year?

Hey, these comics are that good!

The graphics were phenomenal! Interesting story about Tommy. I wonder were it will lead.
