Mighty Morphin #2 by Ryan Parrott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This felt like a big improvement over #1, probably because I felt less confused. I’ve got a ton of Power Rangers back issues to read to make me even less confused…if only I had the time to actually read them!
The Mighty Morphin team are busy dealing with the ramifications of the Omega Rangers’ seeming betrayal, as Zordon decides to send out a galactic APB for the Omega team. On one hand, this feels like a classic “big misunderstanding” plotline, but it’s really not. I think both teams understood completely what the other were saying, but both were convinced they were in the right and so were unwilling to budge. Only time will tell whether freeing Drakkon was the right thing to do or not. Maybe he is the lesser of two evils, but maybe his ultimate betrayal is also inevitable…and both teams will be both right and wrong. Oooo…moral ambiguity in Power Rangers! There’s an idea…
The art is also great and this may be the first time in history that I’ve found myself actually liking Bulk and Skull!
