It’s Cowabunga Time!

Ryan Parrott, soon to be the former writer of the Power Rangers comic from BOOM! Studios, will be returning with top-talent artist Dan Mora, for a sequel series to the original Mighty  Morphin Power Rangers / Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic book crossover.  Ryan Parrott has previously stated that doing the first book was a highlight for him so obviously a sequel is going to be even more amazing, more incredible, and hopefully full of more awesome Heroes in a Half Shell in Spandex!

It’s a homecoming in so many ways.

Melissa Flores, former Director of Development for Power Rangers at Hasbro, as well as Producer on the Power Rangers Beast Morphers television show, and other creative and production related titles with Saban Brands, is returning to the Power Rangers brand as the writer for the BOOM! Studios comic book.  The comic – which has been split in to two titles currently (Mighty Morphin and Power Rangers) has been written by Mathew Groom and Ryan Parrott respectively – will return to a single title (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) with Issue 101.

Melissa is popular within the fan community for her interaction with fans at conventions and her online presence.  She was unceremoniously laid off by Hasbro a few years back.

She has partnered with both Ryan Parrott and Mathew Groom – as well as former Mighty Morphin Power Rangers writer Kyle Higgins – to start her own creator-owned comic book called “The Dead Lucky” which releases on August 3rd.  Be sure to check it out!

“Now then… about that new power…”

In the world we know, when Rita Repula’s evil spell was broken, the Green Ranger joined the side of good. The prophecy fulfilled, the earth was defended by all 6 Power Rangers! But in another time, Tommy Oliver sought to control his Earth. Conquering it right alongside Rita, the two and their armies destroyed all remaining good in the world. Stopping Jason just short of becoming the White Ranger, Tommy killed his one time fried and took the power for his own. Forcing the White & Green Ranger’s power coins together, Tommy created an unstoppable power. Taking on as his own the name of Rita’s former protege, Tommy was reborn as Lord Drakkon!

The smash hit character of Boom! Studios Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comics finally arrives in the Lightning Collection line! Lord Drakkon has been a figure many hoped would find it’s way to this line quickly. So it’s crazy to think that it was only revealed least month and now it’s already hitting store shelves. Another excellent addition to the line, Lord Drakkon is primarily built off of the MMPR White Ranger mold, though it’s armed with Drakkon’s own ornate armor. Complimented by his own Dragon Dagger, Lord Drakkon is ready to conquer your Lightning Collection.
