    Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #19 is a fun read, being one of the most entertaining issues in the series to date. Giving our teenage heroes a proper task, this latest arc sees the villainous monster sculptor, Finster, take centre stage. In doing this, not only do the creative team deliver a much darker tale, but they also give us a strange, yet enticing set of events. Read Full Review

    The new Power Rangers story arc is off to a strong start. This issue brings a little added darkness to the series, but in a way that enhances the fun rather than distracts from it. This issue plays out as much like an '80s horror movie as a traditional Ranger romp, and the darker, more unsettling take on Finster is already paying off for Higgins and Prasetya. 18 issues in, this series continues to serve as just the sort of modernized update the original Power Rangers deserve.

    Geeked Out Nation - Jideobi Odunze Aug 23, 2017

    Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #18 made what I would call a forgettable villain, someone to fear when he has been given the chance to stretch his legs. Rita can sometimes be a crutch and this encounter proved that. The inclusion of Grace and the government behind her also is a treat when this is a time of establishing the Rangers as independent, or open to the idea of outside aid. World-building continues to shine as key to a story evolving, rather than falling into habits. Read Full Review

    On Comics Ground - Patrick Rahall Sep 5, 2017

    The storytelling seemed a bit rushed, with several pages of the book centering on a story about Squatt and Baboo traveling inter-dimensionally and causing trouble by killing innocent Zords (as they are the size of Zords themselves) based on how they look. In my opinion, this should have been scaled back a bit to focus more on the monsters created by Finster, including a wizard named Boarlock and a creature named Karmadillo- an armadillo who knows Kung Fu. I would much rather know why these creatures are fighting with Finster against the Rangers than see the Squatt and Baboo story. Read Full Review
