22 years later, the long-disbanded team reunites to mourn the losses of beloved friends, but Zack and Billy have some unexpected information to share-Jason, the Red Ranger, has been operating as a lone vigilante, and has since disappeared.
Will the remaining Rangers be able to track him down, especially with a mysterious figure in pursuit?
Written by actress, screenwriter, and director Amy Jo Johnson, the original Pink Ranger herself, along wit more
A story that has a lot of questions: Where is Jason? Who is the fourth person accessing the Grid? Who is the villain of this story? Will Kimberly come to terms with her past as a Ranger? I am looking forward to the answers. Read Full Review
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Return is a great entry point for readers who are interested in exploring the comics from BOOM! Studios. For years, this publisher has provided fans with some trulyimpressive stories featuring our favorite teenagers with attitude, and this special event series is no exception. There is a lot of world-building that happens in this first issue, but it feels organic and necessary in order to set the stage for what comes next. The artistic choices from Leon, Segala, and Martinelli blended together to paint a vivid picture of this brave new world, expertly complemented by lettering from Dukeshire. All of these elements are further enhanced by pitch-perfect character designs from the one and only Dan Mora (Once & Future). Theres so much to love in the morphinomenal first issue, and I cant wait to see where this creative team takes us. Read Full Review

Awesome, easy read. Great art and world
Kudos to The original pink ranger on the first chapter to an intriguing adventure. What seems so interesting here is how the original Rangers never left their roles (Come on, Who can honestly say they never once wished that they hadn't?). It leads to a unique but not so happy fate for the team. I'm looking forward to seeing this develop and learn how things turned out resulting in their world today.
I heard some negative talk about this which left me skeptical at first, but I'm glad I didn't listen and got it. It proves to be an exciting ride ahead.
