    As a more “mature” Power Ranger fan this series, like the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series is perfect for me, it keeps close enough to the show that you feel like a kid again while growing with its audience for a more grown up story telling. The art is stunning in every panel from the first page to last and getting to see a closer look at how they became the team we know and love is great. This is hands down a 5 star book.

    Go Go Power Rangers #1 is a perfect Ranger comic. The character building and nods to the show is so respectful to the show while being it's own entity, since it's not doing a straight adaptation of the show. I recommend this issue to veteran fans and newcomers alike. Read Full Review

    This book is very reminiscent of the 90s Power Ranger that we all grew up with and yes, Bulk and Skull are there being their annoying and loveable selves. And man this book brings back memories. We all know how the TV series went lets see if the Rangers have good luck fighting this Rita Repulsa who doesnt seem to be a push over as her TV version. Read Full Review

    Go Go Power Rangers is a breath of fresh air for fans looking for a more lighthearted, but still serious Power Rangers series. BOOM!'s Mighty Morphin Power Rangers story centers on building the mythology of the original team, whereas this new title is more about building the characters - proving that there is room for two Power Rangers ongoing series.

    We end on a cliffhanger as the Power Rangers' attempted rescue of two astronauts doesn't go as planned, and I'm very much looking forward to seeing how the newly-minted team fares against Rita Repulsa, as well as how the responsibility of being a Ranger will continue to affect their personal lives.

    Word Of The Nerd - Brent Jackson Jul 27, 2017

    This first issue is a magnificent start to this series and exactly what I want out of a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers series. BOOM! Studios' other ongoing MMPR series is great for its own reasons, but this has what I am looking for. I love the focus on the characters as a whole and learning more about them as individuals. I also love that this is starting from the beginning and that they are still coming to terms with what has happened and how this is going to affect their whole lives. The whole creative team just nails the theme and tone of this book and they have me very excited to pick up the next issue! That "Morphin Time!" scene was just grand! Go buy this book today!

    Does the world truly need two ongoing Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comics? Not necessarily, and some readers may find that this prequel doesn't do quite enough to stand apart from its sister series. But regardless, the terrific visuals and high school character drama combine to form an enjoyable teen superhero book. Read Full Review

    Saban's Go Go Power Rangers #1 I feel proved me wrong in what little faith I had in it to be worthy of investing time in. These are moments you don't want to overlook for the Rangers. Every hero needs a good origin, and this is a stage in their lives where they have to understand just what they are getting themselves into. Read Full Review

    The Power Rangers themselves look to be in perfect hands. The simple yet effective opening dares to explore consequences from big action set pieces, putting the characters first and foremost in what should be a very interesting read. Read Full Review
