UPDATE: SDCC '15 - The MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS Are Returning To Comics
It's morphin' time once again as the Power Rangers are returning to the comics. This time BOOM! Studios will be taking a crack at bringing the iconic Rangers to life in comic book form!
BOOM! Studios, in a new partnership with Saban Brands, has acquired the comic book license to Saban's prized Power Rangers brand. They will now produce all-new comic books starring the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and will start off the process by introducing a set of exclusive, one-page MMPR comics at San Diego Comic-Con next weekend.
Even though, the Power Rangers franchise is currently on its 22nd season and also has a Lionsgate-produced movie on the way, the new comic series will focus exclusively on the Mighty Morphin era and is being designed to appeal to fans of the original 1993 series, which was by far the most popular of all the different Ranger iterations. BOOM! Studios editor-in-chief Matt Gagnon said they have big plans for the future of the franchise and teased that the story they plan on telling will be one vast in scope and that fans of the franchise can rest assured knowing that the publisher will treat the property with a focus on authenticity and quality.
This won't be the first time the Rangers have been seen in comic form. They were previously published by Marvel Comics in the '90s and more recently, Paper Cutz published a few books.
