    Do you have what it takes to become a future Power Ranger? This topic seems to be a key issue leading into the upcoming launch of the book. Although there aren't any aliens or monsters to fight, Ranger Academy succeeds by leveraging the values of the Power Rangers to tell a somewhat grounded story…set in space. The future seems bright with the launch of this original story, and I am interested to see what the creative team does with these threads. Read Full Review

    Ranger Academy #1 shows off a new side of the Power Rangers universe, setting the stage for what could be BOOM! Studios' biggest swing with the franchise yet.

    This year has seen many celebrations marking the 30th anniversary of the Power Rangers. As a child of the 90s, I still remember the rush of those first few years — eagerly waiting to watch new episodes, begging my parents to bring me to toy stars on the hunt for figures. It’s hard to believe that we’re at this milestone, but it’s a true testament to the franchise’s staying power that we’re here. BOOM! Studios adds to the anniversary party this week with the launch of Ranger Academy, a new series where fans will learn more about the school where Rangers are made. The publisher has billed the series as “Power Rangers meets My Hero Academia” and after reading the first two issues (Issue #2 releases November 1st) thanks to BOOM! more

    I wish I could share most everyone else's enthusiasm for this series, but I don't think this one's for me. I found this issue rather dull and more out of some kind of Anime I wouldn't be able to get into than the epic regular Ranger comic.

I can see the potential this series would have with full series Ranger fans or people majorly into Anime and Manga, but it may not be for everyone who's into the regular Ranger title. If you're looking for epic action, stick with that. This one doesn't look like it will have much of that. This seems to be more one of those "Slice of Life" comics when compared to the regular Ranger action.
