    This collection of short stories of the 30th anniversary are a love letter for fans of the spectacular franchise. Each creative team handled different aspects of the rangers with such love and care. Its great that for readers who might be picking up an issue for their first time or have dropped the series for a bit to see a reading guide in catching up on the phenomenal stories that have been told by Boom the recent years.

    I liked this better than the 25th anniversary one. Most of the stories were pretty interesting. The Ranger Academy one was dull though, and it leaves me with even less faith than I already had that the series will be any good. I'll probably check out the first few issues and pass on it unless it gets caught up in some crossover with the regular series.
