Next week belongs to Hasbro as they prepare to launch Hasbro Pulse Con, their own online entertainment convention that takes the place of the Hasbro reveals usually seen at San Diego Comic Con and New York Comic Con. Sneak peaks begin on Tuesday, September 22nd and merchandise purchases begin (for Pulse Premium members) on Wednesday, September 23rd. Product is available to ALL fans on Thursday, September 24th.
For Power Rangers – the magic begins on Saturday, September 26th. There will be both a Hasbro’s Power Rangers product panel with promised new reveals and Q&A with the design team.

Former Power Rangers comic book writer Kyle Higgins, responsible for the fan-favorite Shattered Grid storyline, has previewed a brand new creator-owned comic book. Inspired by your favorite tokusatsu series as well as a Millennial Spider-Man, this new series features a character sporting a very toku-looking costume!
The main cover is drawn by Michael Cho. Two variant covers are drawn by David Finch and Goni Montes. The interiors are done by the very talented Marcelo Costa.
There is no information beyond that at this point. Kyle has teased to follow his Twitter (@KyleDHiggins) for the name of this comic and what publisher it will be with very very soon.
Today’s geek culture has taken a serious hit thanks to the global pandemic caused by COVID-19. We have seen the staples in the convention world shut down with a shift to offering only a spattering of the content we’re used to, sometimes behind a paywall. Power Rangers fans will no doubt know that both Power Morphicon and RangerStop were forced to postpone their shows until next year at the earliest – there is no guarantee conventions will ever resume like they used to.
TokuNation is proud to announce our participation with The Viewing Globe – a Power Rangers Online Fan Experience for this Labor Day Weekend (September 4th through September 6th). This is a free convention created by fans of Power Rangers and tokusatsu in general.
The first guest announcements are as follows:
