It’s time to get back to action, because Power Rangers Prime #2 from Boom! Studios is now available. This bold new title puts an interesting twist on the Power Rangers Universe, and now is the perfect time to join the fun. In a world where Power Rangers are outlawed, who will save us when evil returns? I can’t believe that I actually get to type this…but THE VR TROOPERS ARE BACK!?!
Minor spoilers ahead.
Official Synopsis:
The new morphinominal era continues in the second action-packed issue of Power Rangers Prime! Conflicts emerge around a fugitive Ranger, drawing in another iconic team and setting up a world-colliding crossover that fans have been theorizing about for years! Meanwhile, a fan favorite villain has uncovered the remnants of a Samuraizer… and the latent Morphin energy could unleash a power unlike anything this universe has ever seen…
Creative Team:

Power Rangers Prime #1 quickly established the new status quo for the Power Rangers Universe. In this world, the Eltarian’s have colonized Earth, Power Rangers are hunted, and our greatest hope might just rely on our oldest foe… As Rita Repulsa makes her way to Earth, readers will soon realize just how different this version of Power Rangers truly is. Get ready for a team-up that no one saw coming, as Rita is joined by a new minion. Meanwhile, the citizens of Angel Grove University are protecting a Power Ranger fugitive, and things are about to go from bad to worse once the VR Troopers get involved…Who can you trust? We’re about to find out.
It might be set in a different universe, but there can be zero doubt that this is a Power Rangers book. Power Rangers Prime #2 expertly balances the action with world-building to create a satisfying second chapter. The creative team continues to expand on this new world while strategically grounding it with familiar concepts and characters. Incorporating the VR Troopers into the narrative adds even more energy to this book, as readers are about to get a face-off that we’ve wanted for decades.
Power Rangers Prime continues to put a fresh new spin on the characters and concepts that we know and love. We’re just two issues in, and there is no question that I will be sticking around for this new adventure.
