The Massive-verse, made up of Image Comics properties Radiant Black (Kyle Higgins), Rogue Sun (Ryan Parrott), Inferno Girl Red (Mat Groom), and The Dead Lucky (Melissa Flores), held their first panel at this year’s San Diego Comic Con 2022.  The panel also featured Cherish Chen (Radiant Red mini-series).  Check out all the details below thanks to Comic Book Keepers (@CBKcast) on Twitter for the details and images!

  • The Empire (the deep space aliens we saw previously during a Radiant Pink teleport mishap) are about to strike back
  • Radiant Black #18 features the premiere of Radiant Yellow (Wendell) and will feature four stories in one – reading the comic in different ways – which go in line with his power of being able to see multiple outcomes to situations (in order to choose the best one)
  • The Catalyst War – a Massive-verse event – is coming soon…
  • Rogue Sun current story arc ends in Issue #6
  • Rogue Sun Issue #7 is a “Choose Your Own Adventure” issue
  • A new villain based on time debuts “Ornate”
  • Rogue Sun Issue #8 takes us back to High School (think “Go Go Power Rangers” comic) and features a new villain named “Hellbent”
  • Preview for Rogue Sun Issue #9 gives us the hint that Dylan is going to have a real rough time
  • Radiant Red concludes with Issue #6 and gets wild
  • Inferno Girl Red preview – 120 page graphic novel!
  • Introduction to The Dead Lucky, created by Melissa Flores
  • The Dead Lucky is Bibiana, a half-Latina half-Asian woman, of which The Dead Lucky represents both cultures in terms of how those cultures honor the dead
  • Radiant Pink series announced
  • Written by Meghan Camarena featuring artwork by Emma Kubert
  • Introduces Radiant Pink’s love interest Kelly, and their relationship is the heart of the series
  • Super Massive 2 was announced

The Massive-verse looks to become even MORE massive!

The creators of all the heroes in the Massive-verse have something in common – they’ve all worked on Power Rangers at some point in their careers!  These new heroes have some tokusatsu inspiration in them, one main trait being that these heroes all “transform” (whereas your traditional comic book superheroes just have their suits on under their regular clothes).  Now is a great time to catch up with the Massive-verse and all of their titles!

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!

Stay tuned for more details!

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!
