Thanks for making this, Joey. I had thought PR was flourishing especially after the 30th anniversary reunion Netflix special. Did PR the Return end as well? I know there’s a ton of PR fans out there so I hope they don’t intend to kill the franchise.

So a few months ago I thought the same thing that PR was going strong. Then all of this started coming down around the same time so it is a bit suspicious. PR the Return is just a limited series and it has already concluded with issue 4. I think Boom Studios is still working on the side stuff like Ranger Academy but all of main line stuff is coming to an end. I also hope there is no intent to kill the franchise.

Predator vs Wolverine ended up being really fun. I definitely recommend it. As for Power Rangers I am not 100% sure what's going on. Hasbro is making strane decisions like outsourcing the Power Rangers toys to Playmates and they cancelled the show for now. If it's still their plan the goal is to relaunch PR and most likely are wanting evyething to line up with the new vision.

Great video. The price is a major issue but my number one issue is the quality. They expect us to pay more for stories that are atrocious. I have been reading Energon Universe but I'm leaning toward waiting until the trade comes out and get the complete story all at once
@JoesGeekShow
@JoesGeekShow 3 ай бұрын
Yes! Quality is defintely a huge issue. Especially when concerning the big two. The content inside almost never justifies the price. When it comes to trade all it really comes down to is patience. The thought of "Can I really wait x amount of months to see what happens next?" It was a little hard at first because you get this feeling that you're missing out but after a little bit it gets easier to do. I understand why for some floppies is still the way to go but for me I got over that hump and I like how much more I save by waiting.

That is a really big point too. Comics are often written for trade these days which in some ways hurts the pacing and story sometimes in the floppies. I can recall a few comics I reviewed where in the beginning I didn't favor them too much but when I got to the end and had the full scope I realized it reads better thus changing my entire viewpoint. I also find that because of this I enjoy reviewing trades more since I can give a more well rounded opinion.

I try and buy both floppies and TPBs. I think its good to support your local independent comic book store (if you have one) with a subscription. That said I think no comic is justified as being over 3.99 unless its a double issue or something. I believe Marvel recently announced its going to try and make most comics 3.99. When I was a teenager in the UK in the 90s comics were 65p. Now they are easily £3 more. I think all Marvel and DC have been doing is pricing themselves out of the market. The price needs to go down and the quality to go up. All said I still enjoy buying comics and being part of that community. For now, anyways! Stuart
