Publication history[edit]
On July 2020, Boom! Studios announced the 2016 Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic book series would conclude on October 2020, with a new event titled "Unlimited Power" being presented through two new separate series to debut on November 2020.[1][2]
Background[edit]
- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #51–55 by Ryan Parrott, Mosiés Hidalgo and Walter Baiamonte.
- Power Rangers: Ranger Slayer by Ryan Parrott, Dan Mora and Goni Montes.[3]
- Power Rangers: Drakkon New Dawn #1–3 by Anthony Burch and Simone Ragazzoni.[4]
In the mainstream universe, after the defeat of Kiya and the Anointed, Lord Drakkon (who survived his time within the Morphin Grid) is sent back to Earth, where the Power Rangers locked him up in the Command Center. Lord Zedd reunites with his minions in order to recruit a clone of Rita Repulsa and use the Chaos Crystal to turn them into his own "Dark Rangers".[5] Grace Sterling helps Billy Cranston on repairing the Green Power Coin for a new candidate. Meanwhile, Zedd sends his new Dark Rangers to attack Angel Grove to attract the Power Rangers. After a brief battle, only the Rita clone defeats Tommy Oliver. Zedd then uses the Chaos Crystal to summon the Terrorzords,[6] and the Power Rangers are almost defeated, but a mysterious Green Ranger, who was recruited by Grace Sterling and Promethea for the Green Protocol, destroys Zedd's Chaos Crystal, enabling the Power Rangers to defeat the Dark Rangers, who lost their powers in the process.[7]
Meanwhile, the Omega Rangers travel to the planet Gorvinos III to return its people, only to find it in ruins.[8] Then a mysterious figure appears, and reveals itself as a member of the Imperyal, a race that has decided to wipe out the universe entirely. The Imperyal defeats the Omega Rangers, causing them to flee to Earth.[9]
In the alternate universe, everyone believes Lord Drakkon is dead, and the Ranger Slayer tries to make amends with her past, which leads to confront Scorpina, the new Commander of Drakkon's Ranger Sentry army. After a hard talk, Slayer gets the trust of the Coinless, but they are attacked by zombies lead by the ghost of Rita Repulsa, who was summoned by Trini Kwan as a desperate measure to end their war, to no avail. Slayer has later convinced the Sentries to join forces with the Coinless to fight Rita's army. Trini and Scorpina succeed on trapping Rita on her staff, causing the zombies to vanish. Slayer is chosen by everyone to take Drakkon's place as the new leader of the Sentries.[10]
As Slayer tries to adjust herself into her new role, the aftermath of Drakkon's rampage seems to be irreparable. After having an altercation with a Coinless rebel, Adam Park suggests locking him in the Deathlock, a special prison made by Drakkon, leading Slayer to go there and free all the prisoners inside. As she releases a man inside a Ranger armor, he desperately reveals her actions activated a signal, sending a message that allows an army of space monsters to conquer the world in case Drakkon was defeated.[11] After being freed from his armor, the prisoner is revealed to be Jason Scott, and Scorpina reveals that the invading creatures that lead by Eclipta, an emissary of Dark Specter. Jason suggests removing the Power Coins from the Deathlock's disruptor but the others refuse. However, during the battle between the Sentries and Eclipta's army, Jason removes the Coins anyway, causing the Sentries to lose their powers.[12]
