Unlike the recent film, which completely altered aspects of our main characters to the point that they were the original five in name only, this series expertly manages to make them feel both fresh and familiar.
Rita, too, is greater than she was. She's still comical, but she's also threatening, manipulative, and devious.
If you were a fan of MMPR in the 90s, this is worth checking out. If you thought the series was too campy to be worth your time, this is worth checking out. If you just like reading fun action comics, this is worth checking out. Enjoy!
This book is certainly written like it's for fans of the original show when it aired on tv. It assumes you know the five rangers and their quirks and personalities, that Jason is the leader, Trini the wise one, Billy the tech guy, etc. kind of like how everyone knows the tmnt personalities. Higgins chose an interesting(if not odd) point to start the story. It starts basically RIGHT after Jason beat Tommy and freed him from Rita's spell. To me this is both a good and bad thing. It's good cause it doesn't waste time and it gets to some interesting storytelling right away, it's bad cause I feel like it's a wasted opportunity for other good storytelling.
Like I said, it's written for past power rangers fans who've grown up, and a lot of them could tell you that the green with evil arc was arguably the best arc out of the first 3 seasons. It just feels like skipping over 1 really good story to get to another good story. Higgins likes Tommy, and it shows. The back of the trade even says "Green Ranger Year One...". And I get it. Tommy is a better character as a hero, than a villain under mind control. But he's not the only hero. There was an original team of 5 before he showed up. Sure he whooped their asses like 3-4 times in a row but they eventually beat him. I just felt like Higgins rushed and brushed off like 1-2 trades worth of retelling the green with evil arc from the show
Onto some of the really good stuff so I don't make my 4 star rating confusing. This is a good story. Tommy is struggling to fight off a Tyler Durden version of Rita in his head that keeps bothering him, and trying to veer him back to the dark side. The other rangers are also adjusting to having a new member that they hardly know join up. The OG 5 members know tactics and code words when in battle, but Tommy just scratches his head when he hears these terms, and that causes friction when he tries to do his own thing. Tommy feels really real, so do billy, Kim, Trini and Jason. Zack kind of gets the short end of the stick and doesn't get much development outside of distrusting Tommy. There's a lot of drama within the clique now that Tommy is onboard, for better or worse. One bit I liked that was kept was that Jason teaches karate in his spare time. Also he seems a bit jealous of Kim and Tommy possibly being a couple
The action is good, dialogue is great, and the bulk and skull bits at the end. This is the kind of drama and more in depth look at what Rita's mind control PTSD would look like in a more adult version of the show
Definitely looking forward to volume 2

but thankfully they are all here in the book and I wouldnt have it any other way
the artwork is amazing and the creators really have a good time doing things in the book that couldnt be done in the actual show, these are the stories that fans of the original series thought "wouldnt it be cool if..." while watching the original series
this was a really fun read and is highly recommended to any fan of season 1 of MMPR
