Both series that make up the Unlimited Power Era continue to shock and amaze me with each issue.  ‘Tommy Oliver, the White Mighty Morphin Power Ranger, has formed a new team of Power Rangers including…the all-new Green Ranger!

Rob Lake reviews Power Rangers #5... It's Morphin Time at dawn as the Omega Rangers head to the Western-esq world of Onyx and come face to face with a figure from Power Rangers past.  For Power Rangers #5 , Ryan Parrott gives us an almost Spaghetti Western affair, with a high-stakes gamble, Interstellar bar fights and plenty of twists and turns. I say this every month, but Power Rangers #5 is arguably the jewel in the crown (so far). As seen at the closing of  Power Rangers #4 , the Planet Onyx is a lawless dust bowl full of a delightful assortment of characters. Parrott establishes within the first page that " this place doesn't care much for Rangers " and it's a theme that runs throughout. Jason and Zack end up in a card match with a round nice-guy - Fendrick Prot. It's not long before the two Rangers are double-crossed and that's where the fun starts.  With Power Rangers #5 leading into the Heir of Darkness storyline (check o...

Rob Lake reviews Power Rangers #4... Regardless of if you're a Power Rangers fan or not, the Unlimited Power era has shaken both the Power Ranger dynamic and its established world to its core.  While the Angel Grove team deal with their issues, the Omega Rangers are in deep space and even deeper trouble. If anything it's a tough time being a Ranger, regardless of what team you're on... This time around we're back with the Omega Rangers. After last months shocking conclusion, Ryan Parrott brings us back to a remnant of the Shattered Grid . Yes, we're back in Angel Grove albeit Drakkon's twisted version of it. With the Omega Rangers chasing the remains of the Red Emissary on the planet, we get quite a bit of character building for the former Lord. This issue feels very much like a Drakkon focused issue, and to an extent it is. What we soon learn is that this former "paradise" was Drakkon's prison. You've got to feel a li...
