Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers is a 2016 comic book series based on the Power Rangers franchise, specifically the first installment of the same name. It is published by Boom! Studios and is the first comic in their Power Rangers line, initially written by Kyle Higgins (Nightwing, Green Lantern), while backup stories featuring the infamous duo Bulk and Skull were written by Steve Orlando (Midnighter, Supergirl (Rebirth)).While the series is based on the core concepts of the TV show — and was initially intended to follow its continuity until right after the introduction of the Green Ranger, where the series starts off — it tells original stories, uses a modernised setting and has a more mature tone and writing.Following the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: Shattered Grid arc, the series focused on a different team of Power Rangers, made up of Rangers from various other teams in the history of the franchise. This incarnation of the series was written by Marguerite Bennett (Animosity, Batwoman).The subsequent Necessary Evil storyline returned the focus to the Mighty Morphin' team, albeit after a Time Skip of roughly a year, along with various changes to the status quo that correspond to those from the second season of the original show. It was written by Ryan Parrott (Go Go Power Rangers, Star Trek: Manifest Destiny) and served as the final storyline of the series.After 55 issues, the series ended in 2020. It was succeeded by two ongoing titles, launched as part of the "Unlimited Power" initiative: Mighty Morphin (2020) and Power Rangers (2020), both written by Parrott.

Darker and Edgier: Than the show it's based on. Averted with the Bulk and Skull/Squat and Baboo two-page backup features, which follow the same tone as the show. The alternate universe even more so compared to this one: Rita eventually took over the world and a Last Stand attempt to give Jason the time to obtain the White Ranger powers ended with Tommy killing him and stealing the powers for himself. Three of the 1969 team members die on their first and only mission. It's not graphic, but it's certainly jarring.

Alternate Timeline / Bad Future: The first arc is a result of a villain from one breaking into "our" timeline. In that timeline, Tommy remained at Rita's side even after her spell was broken, and the two of them have effectively conquered the world.

comment
Brother–Sister Team: Deconstructed during the Beyond the Grid storyline. Andros and Karone are this, but Andros, being from the Power Rangers in Space era, is way too protective of Karone, despite her being from post-Power Rangers Lost Galaxy and far from helpless despite her powers being drained. Thus, when the Solatrix is stolen, the other Rangers accuse Andros of being the thief because of his clinginess allowing Mike, the real thief, to deflect the blame.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers (2016) (Comic Book) / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Oh yeah. Tommy in the show was seen to be Easily Forgiven for his actions while brainwashed. This is emphatically not the case here as at least Zack and Jason are seen to have uneasy feelings about his involvement with the team. Tommy defies Jason's orders in order to stop a monster that has taken control of the Dragonzord. He succeeds but Jason is still upset with Tommy for taking the risk. The Rangers are soldiers and just because a plan works doesn't mean it will be forgiven if you disobeyed orders to do so. The Rangers are seen to act more like soldiers than superheroes like they did in the show which is a much more likely formula for success in fighting giant monsters. Rita's use of giant monsters and a nearly endless supply of soldiers are seen to have very tangible consequences, with the former causing property damage and endangering civilians and the latter being useful by sheer numbers allowing them to overwhelm the Rangers regardless of power levels. The 2016 annual depicts the stress such battles would take on the Rangers themselves as well as depicting the destruction the battles would cause. The 1969 team shows how well a group of absolute strangers, with clashing backgrounds and personalities, would do when they're suddenly pushed together onto a Ranger team and sent out: they fight among themselves and are caught off guard when facing Psycho Green, having no idea what they're capable of doing since they haven't been trained. Equally, the post-"The Power Transfer" team is in equal disarray as we're dealing with a team that's half old and half new. Adam, Aisha and Rocky have yet to get into step with the old guard and Kimberly, now second-in-command, is cheesed off by the freshness of the new team and heavily misses Jason, Zack and Trini. Astromena's crimes against the Galaxy are so immeasurable that the court had every reason to see her punished instead of being simply let go.

Power Incontinence: In issue #40, Tommy tells Zordon that the White Ranger powers are throwing him off as while he's more agile, stronger and "a little taller", he can't sleep and feels "on" all the time. This is a subtle nod to the hyperactivity of Kibaranger in Gosei Sentai Dairanger, who was a little kid.

Superhero Paradox: Invoked by Goldar in Issue #5, who claims that Rita didn't start sending down giant monsters until the Rangers started using Zords. Given that each member of Rita's gang is a Card-Carrying Villain, Zack doesn't buy it considering that one of Zordon's rules is to not escalate a battle so the Rangers don't summon their Zords until after Rita has grown a monster.

Kangaroo Court: The intergalactic court that tries to try and sentence Karone for her crimes as Astronema. Why they count is that this is post-Lost Galaxy, and they basically kidnap her to put her before a court that is already dead set on executing her no matter what. The only witness in the entire proceeding that is sympathetic is Doggie Cruger, because his side of the story and its effects were shown throughout S.P.D..

Adaptational Badass: Rita is a lot more cunning here than she was in the show, being an expert at emotional manipulation and long-term planning that keeps taking the Rangers by surprise. We also get to actually see her conquering multiple planets via flashbacks. The Dinozords are sea-worthy (the Triceratops has an underwater mode) and space-worthy (Tommy pilots the Dragonzord to the moon).

For Want Of A Nail: What led to the alternate universe: After destroying the Sword of Darkness, Tommy chose to refuse Jason's offer to join them and went back to Rita which set in motion plans to slowly take over the world and led to the Rangers' defeat.

Continuity Cavalcade: The wrap-around for Shattered Grid has almost every single Ranger that appeared in the franchise somewhere, from main team members, evil rangers (Such as the very short-lived and disappointing Dark Rangers under Zedd, and Psycho Rangers), to obscure one-offs rarely mentioned, if ever (Such as Crash and the Creeps, the Cyborg Rangers, and the Nova Ranger.) It even included Chameleon Green from Uchu Sentai Kyuranger, though this was apparently a mistake and was meant to be Camille from Power Rangers Jungle Fury.

Deconstruction
 Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers (2016) (Comic Book) / int_8ae880f7
comment
Deconstruction: However, there is a proper form of Deconstruction that never gets reconstructed because it serves as a Reconstruction of a completely different idea. Namely, the entire story of the 1969 Rangers deconstructs the common trope of much older Super Sentai seriesnote specifically, Denziman, Goggle V, Dynaman, wherein a group of selected strangers that are certainly capable but definitely certainly aren't trained members of an organizationnote Like Goranger, JAKQ, [1], Sun Vulcan, and Changeman are immediately thrust into action as a team, and act as if they are already functional as one.

This is a Justified Trope along with Recruit Teenagers with Attitude: the 1969 Rangers were all adults with special skills, but had so many hang ups, they ended up clashing horribly with each other. The survivors of their mission call out Zordon for doing such a thing, causing Zordon to fall back on here - it was better to have a cohesive team of friends whose skills he can build up over time rather than a team of skills whose friendship he can build up over time.

Gambit Roulette: Rita's first plan consisted of several plans that feed into each other and hinge on exact circumstances. So far it goes as follows: 1) Send her Putties to attack Tommy while banking on their defeat so she can collect energy from the Dragon Dagger and rely on Tommy's refusal to reveal that he has been hallucinating her presence to keep them from suspecting her, 2) Use the Dragon Dagger energy to create a copy that can be used to control the Dragonzord and also count on the Rangers further distancing themselves from Tommy either due to his refusal to open up or his revealing his hallucinations, 3) Use the negative emotions that come from the conflict between the Rangers and Tommy to create a new powerful monster.

Greater-Scope Villain: Issue #9 introduces a figure who is being called the "Mysterious Ranger", who is a fusion of the Green and White Ranger powers. Later issues reveal that he is called Lord Drakkon and is in fact Tommy from a universe where he stayed on Rita's side after her spell was broken. In the 2018 Anniversary issue, it turns out the United Alliance of Evil, and specifically Astronema, was this for Doggie Cruger's backstory, having been the one who let Grumm loose on his home planet Sirius.

In the "Forever Mighty Morphin Black" chapter from the 2017 annual, among the suits there's one wearing the Dragon Shield, one wearing the Defender Vest, two Ninjetti, and the one from the Pink spin off series. When they're all unmorphed, you can also spot Adam's ancestor from the old west.

Both Sides Have a Point: In Issue Zero Jason and Tommy get into an argument over Tommy's confusion during battle over Jason's orders. Zordon intervenes and tells them they're both at fault: Jason needs to be clearer about orders to the others and to remember that since Tommy just joined, he has no idea what any of the Rangers' tactics are, and Tommy needs to ask clarification when he doesn't know what to do. After Andros, Leo and Maya use a construct of Astronema to get Karone out of her trial before she's killed, Karone lays into them for taking away her choice to be punished for her crimes. Andros points out Karone was going to be punished by being executed for her crimes despite how much good she's tried to do since her Heel–Face Turn.

Child Soldiers: The Rangers are seen to act more like a military unit than they did in the show with Jason acting like a commanding officer during battle and dressing down Tommy when he doesn't follow orders. Another issue shows that Billy had started staying morphed all the time as a comfort mechanism, and projects a hologram of his real clothes over his costume, though he eventually stops doing so. This is a Justified Trope along with Recruit Teenagers with Attitude: the 1969 Rangers were all adults with special skills, but had so many hang ups, they ended up clashing horribly with each other.

What the Hell, Hero?: The surviving members of the 1969 team tear into Zordon for sending a group of strangers, with no training in any of the powers he'd given them, to deal with a threat that they barely understood. In the Omega Rangers arc, they swoop in and defeat Zedd by themselves, seemingly doing the main team's job for them. Zordon, however, is not happy; his Rangers were holding their own against Zedd, but now *someone else* will inevitably replace him.

Original Generation: The series features a Psycho Green during the portion set in 1969. It turns out his original form before making a Deal with the Devil with Dark Spectre was the Sixth Ranger of the Fiveman analog, Supersonic, which was based on Xybria. Being from a team predating Zyuranger, this Sixth Ranger never existed in the original Sentai.

Red Herring: Some fans speculated that Lord Drakkon would be an alternate universe version of Zack, given that Rita originally offered Zack to become the Green Ranger, but he refused. Not to mention Drakkon's Zord being the Black Dragon, however, it turned out that an alternate universe version of Tommy is in fact Lord Drakkon.

Decon-Recon Switch: Many of the typical Power Rangers tropes are taken apart and shown to not work how the show portrays them to, but it still manages to make those tropes work in different ways. Deconstruction: However, there is a proper form of Deconstruction that never gets reconstructed because it serves as a Reconstruction of a completely different idea. Namely, the entire story of the 1969 Rangers deconstructs the common trope of much older Super Sentai seriesnote specifically, Denziman, Goggle V, Dynaman, wherein a group of selected strangers that are certainly capable but definitely certainly aren't trained members of an organizationnote Like Goranger, JAKQ, [1], Sun Vulcan, and Changeman are immediately thrust into action as a team, and act as if they are already functional as one.

comment
Call-Forward: Lieutenant Stone is assigned to supervise Bulk and Skull's community service, 2 years before he becomes their superior when they join the Junior Police Force. The reveal that Zack was the first Green Ranger recruit and he's resentful of how powerful he could have been means that Zack wearing the Dragon Shield in the final episode of the first season was the resolution of a character arc that the audience didn't even know existed. With regards to the timeframe, the destroyed Thunderzords and Saba being found in the alternate universe Billy and Tommy are sent to probably count. Issue #12 adds to this with the appearance of Aisha, the Alien Rangers, the Falconzord, the Phantom Ranger, and Ninjor. After admitting she has a crush on Tommy, Kimberly jokes that a relationship between them can't end well. Rita's absence after the end of the Lord Drakkon arc is because she's been tracking down the Wizard of Deception to have him create a very familiar looking candle.

Ragtag Band of Misfits: The 1969 Rangers. All five of them had certain skills Zordon needed to complete a mission, but they were people from all walks of life who had incredibly clashing personalities, namely two former friends who had clashing views of the Vietnam War and a KGB Agent who was angry he was being led by an American. Sadly, those three end up dying. The post-Shattered Grid team, comprised of Ranger Slayer, Tanya/Zeo Ranger II, Andros/Red Space Ranger, Mike/the Magna Defender, Cam/Ninja Storm!Green Samurai Ranger, and the Heckyl/Dark Ranger. All of them parts of different teams, different powers, different Zords, the works. The last one wasn't even brought over to his season’s Power Ranger adaption.

Jerkass: Zack. He's aggressively suspicious of Tommy after he is freed from Rita's spell. A flashback reveals Rita offered to make him the Green Ranger before Tommy. He refused and escaped, but never told his friends about it. After meeting his alternate universe counterpart, he's advised to tell the team sooner rather than later what happened.

Tommy in the show was seen to be Easily Forgiven for his actions while brainwashed. This is emphatically not the case here as at least Zack and Jason are seen to have uneasy feelings about his involvement with the team.
