The Power Rangers Comic is Weird...

[@franknova987]

Now that Power Ranger fighting games makes more sense after learning about this

[@LionelRGuy]

Yep, Battle For The Grid is based on the Shattered Grid event, and is even written by Kyle Higgins himself (who also provided the voice of the Mastodon Sentry).

[@carloscanchola5655]

@@LionelRGuy I mean they have also been referencing that event in recent seasons of the show. With every crossover episode there's been kind of an ulterior sub-story until Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel where they literally reveal that sub-story in that season's crossover.

[@LionelRGuy]

@@carloscanchola5655 ... um, they literally DON'T. *headscratch* Not sure what you could possibly mean, since there's no mention of Drakkon or all timelines becoming 1 or anything like that. Yeah, they have Draven and his robo-clones, which are KINDA LIKE having Ranger Sentries, but that's about it.

[@LionelRGuy]

@@carloscanchola5655 Also, what other crossovers possibly could've referenced Shattered Grid? Dimensions In Danger was the only one to even HAPPEN since after the comic started.

[@megameme29]

Yeah, black ranger with ak 47 made no sense to me at first

[@Vegitodraws]

Did anyone else have that phase as a kid when literally every single super hero was your favorite, and it changed from time to time. Then you turned 7 or 10, and you finally decided on an obscure super hero like Daredevil (before the TV show), or Nightwing (outside of Titans and the casual comic fan)

[@LegendaryAWESOME]

More when I was 13, i decided my favourite superhero was the Punisher, because I was so... "edgy"... back then

[@OnionKnightRises]

Yeah, for me it was Iron Man. I didn't even know anything about him, I just saw him in one of the Marvel vs Capcom games and loved the idea of him and he looked so cool that he became my favorite. This was of course back then during the MvC and MvC 2 days, when Iron Man wasn't a more popular superhero than Spider-Man.

[@Vegitodraws]

[@TheOneTrueOtaku1]

As a long time fan of PR I can definitely speak for how good these comics are. Being some of the most fun I’ve had with the series in between various shows. But if I had to pinpoint it strongsuit, it’s that it doesn’t stop at being PR fan service. It’s good for any new fans.

Comic Books have some advantages from T.V. Shows you can tell new, multiple and bigger types of stories.

[@giganticzombie]

This comic feels like an infinitely better version of the original Spider-Verse and Spider-Geddon events. I feel this keeps the heart and soul of the original show yet maturing it in such a smart way whereas Verse and Geddon took a fun concept and ruined it by making it way, WAY too dark and feels like a spit in the face to the fans. The Power Rangers comic is a fun yet grounded, to an extent, homage.

[@skyyswaggstudios2934]

I think spiderverse is fine, but im definitely looking forward way more to reading these power rangers books once i get my hands on them

@@ironmaidenjr.8471 Maybe he already tried it, but he should check out Cable and Deadpool if he hasn't. Deadpool's humor is IMHO delivered better there than when certain writers handle him (sorry, I'm not a fan of how Daniel Way writes him). it has an interesting story, it's fun to see a lot of obscure characters get highlighted, heck I initially never cared about Cable as he just seemed like a product of the Rob Liefeld element of the 90's but this book turned me around on him, etc. It's personally my favorite run of anything Marvel that I've read.

This is a nice overview of the Black Dragon/Drakkon arcs. And I'm looking forward to the next part! However, for a video that was published on May 25, 2020, it's a bit outdated from the onset: 0:35 - "Written by Kyle Higgins and almost exclusively illustrated by Hendry Presetya..." As of May 25 , 2020, the series has had 3 main writers: Kyle Higgins, Marguerite Bennett, and Ryan Parrott. As for illustrators, the book has also had 3 main artists and several guest artists. And current artist, Daniele Di Nicuolo has illustrated more issues of the book than Presetya.

[@randomdogdog]

I cannot recommend diving into the book enough. When drake said the main character, I was ready to say a completely character (Zach). Great series, though I'm saving up for the second trade...

[@hylianhaxorus9689]

[@jeggsonvohees2201]

That one wasn't exactly "fan" made. The creator is on record saying he made it as a criticism of the low quality and poor writing that fan films generally have. He's got no love for power rangers.

[@thevfxmancolorizationvfxex4051]

If the original TV series was written like that, then maybe it would've achieved a bigger audience. We didn't get this kind of quality writing till In Space

[@TheAzureGuardian]

I was aware of the existence of the Power Rangers comics and Lord Drakon, but didn't know just how insane it got. Honestly, I would have assumed you'd get Linkara on board with this since he's big into both comics and Power Rangers himself, but I can see why you wouldn't do that as some may see it as you using Linkara to collab as a way to gain viewers/subscribers. Still though, that you got one of the guys who wrote the comics on board with this is really cool.

[@spartaninthebox9101]

As a "hardcore" Ranger fan, I quite enjoy the book. However, quite a few of us in the fandom were really over Tommy being shoved in our faces, in numerous areas of the franchise, for so long. Kyle Higgins, cool guy that he is, directly talked with the fandom via message boards and whatnot, before the book had come out. In one such instance, the topic of conversation came around to the fear that the book would be primarily Tommy focused, as many wanted to see the other rangers be better developed. He responded with something along the lines of "don't worry guys, it's not gonna be all Tommy all the time." To be fair, it isn't, but it's far more Tommy than a lot of us would care for. I like the book a lot, I really do, but so much of it is driven solely by him, that or Boom's OCs who they like to use over existing characters, but I digress. Hell, even during Shattered Grid, where Tommy is absent, it's still being driven by a different Tommy. Like they had the entire cast of every Power Ranger season at their fingertips to play with, but nuts to that we gotta get back to either seeing what future Tommy is up to, or talking about how much we miss regular Tommy. It's just a little frustrating when you're apart of a group of people, who have dealt with multiple decades of people constantly pushing Tommy to the forefront of everything, and when you finally get a medium that is unrestrained by any of the show's limitations, to get more of that is a little disappointing. It's still good, and probably the best thing PR has had in a while, but I still have my gripes with it. The current Power Rangers/TMNT crossover is just pure awesome though, no notes there!

[@BarrelBob]

As a fellow long-time ranger fan, I agree with this 100%. I think a big reason the average person clings to Tommy so much is because the franchise never allows characters from other seasons shine. If it's not MMPR, it doesn't exist. Personally, I'd take RJ from Jungle Fury over Tommy any day.

[@spartaninthebox9101]

@@BarrelBob I feel ya man, and yeah Kung Fu Shaggy is cool lol. I feel like the biggest dropped ball, in terms of the comic, is actually Beyond the Grid. I was pretty excited for it, because unlike Shattered Grid, we were getting just a handful of returning rangers to focus on, which would hopefully lead to spending some time and seeing them further developed. I thought it was going to be like getting to follow what the Once a Ranger team did on their own. But turned out, if you weren't alt future Kim, or whatever the Solar Ranger's name was, you were a side character at best. I'm hopeful for that Time Force follow up they're doing. Much as I like Jen, she was not only the representative for TF in Shattered Grid, but got to do a good deal by hanging with the main cast. So I hope they focus just a little more on the other TF rangers. Fingers crossed they do something cool with Eric.

[@duncan2by4]

OFF THE GRID is one of the Spin-Off Series that came out of Shattered Grid, and its about a group of time displaced Power Rangers searching for a new access point to the Power Grid and a way back home. And, as Rob would say, it's AMAZING! High, High Recommendations to add to the list of reads.

[@AndricLibreSinn]

Shattered Grid was a better Anniversary story than the actual Anniversary story in the show.

[@rabl3535]

If I just went by video titles I would just say: "First of all, how dare you?". But yeah, the comic book is surprisingly good and is consistently entertaining. The Shattered Grid storyline I found to be a better event than even those the big two released and the current story called 'Necessary Evil' is also very good.

[@kenjihirata6834]

The story arcs have been consistently good...with the exception of "Beyond the Grid". Personally, I never cared about the appearance of Ellarien (Purple Solar Ranger) nor her background. Not to mention there were plenty of exposition that I could never dwell into. The main villain, the Praetor, was also dull. I also found it odd that Cam's personality was changed from the show as snarky to someone who cracks jokes even at inappropriate times (which fits Dustin more in Ninja Storm). The good things were Andros' brief moments with (relatively future) Karone, focus on Heckyl and how became the Dark (Energem) Ranger and all about the Ranger Slayer.

[@angelorolo4308]

I personally haven't read this series (Although I have read a few issues of their Go Go series). I mostly haven't because as a fan of PR, I'm on the side of fans that have gotten exhausted with the over saturation of Tommy, but this video has actually made me want to give this series a shot.

[@pepergirl001]

It's really good despite the Tommy over saturation. I mean Power Ranger has a lot of interesting characters that can be explored, interesting possibilities (like this one) yet every thing seems to revolve around Tommy. I get it he's the face of the franchise but do something else with someone else. It's why I like the Ranger Slayer character a lot and why I found interesting the whole Zack angle that could have been taken. Now that last one seems like an interesting possibility to explore in the comics. If you do give the series a try I hope you enjoy it.

[@shawnmiller4185]

It's pretty good honestly. Especially when it focuses on Drakon and his plans as opposed to the Rangers. Though minor spoiler one of my favorite parts is when they show you who's leading the combined ranger army.

Kim’s parents going through a nasty divorce, them trying to use her to hurt each other.

I know you didn't mention it in the video but I have to say that the 1969 Power Rangers went a bit too much into fanfic territory for me (especially the Green Psycho Ranger who had no business existing or being there (which is only made worse when Boom! decided to make him also the Green Supersonic Ranger)). I do appreciate the comic explaining where Terra Venture came from in a way that makes complete sense though.

If you like the idea of a super hero "monster of the week" show with actual character development, solid plot and honestly good visual effects for TV shows I recommend Kamen Rider.

Even though it's supposed to be a kid's show since it airs on sunday mornings along side anime, it deals with stuff like death, grief, psychological things and at one time even a whole series based on drug addiction. If anyone is interested I seriously recommend Kamen Rider Build as an entry. It's recent, it has great characters, development and plot with also a very interesting premise. If you wanna start Super Sentai I'd recommend Samurai Sentai Shinkenger (which had it's footage and some plot points brought over for Power Rangers Samurai). It has a good ensemble cast that feels three dimensional AND has a lot of japanese cultural references which are explained in a way that you can understand things like how samurais and their vassals worked back in the day. Both these shows aren't currently available officially in the US, needing a fan-translation in order to watch it BUT Shout Factory released some seasons of Super Sentai like Kyoryuu Sentai Zyuranger, the original show that became Mighty Morphin Power Rangers here. Fair warning that Zyuranger is surprisingly dark with the shows first episodes having Bandora (Rita) kidnapping kids in order to sacrifice them for a ritual. Shit was wild back in the late 80s and early 90s in Japan.

I love the power rangers comic so freaking much. So happy to have you cover it, and I can't wait to see your shattered grid video
