I hate to preface another Power Rangers comic review with “I’ve never read or watched Power Rangers before” but I think it’s important to note because it gives me a unique perspective that most readers and target audience won’t have and it means I’m coming at this comic with fresh eyes and no understanding other than this is based on a kid’s show.And given that this was based on a kid’s show, I thought the writer did a marvellous job at crafting these characters with such depth. Even the bullies...

This series follows the original crew around the time they first become Rangers. The opening volume is kinda boring, but the ending is intriguing enough to see where things go. Recommended for die hard fans. The main series is MUCH better.

Higgins’ Mighty Morphin series left me with a need to devour all power ranger comics. Ryan Parrott’s Sagan’s Go Go Power Rangers doesn’t disappoint. This series explores our beloved rangers when they first became rangers. While Higgins’ series conveys rangers that are fully realized and sharing and imparting mature moments, Go-Go shows a group of rangers unsure of their new responsibilities and unsure of each other as a team. The series reads as raw and unrefined which is perfect considering tha...

Like many, I watched the Rangers as a kid and fell in love with them. I know the ‘Deluxe’ books by Kyle Higgins are popular and praised so I decided to give this a try as well. I’m glad I did. As opposed to the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers books, which start with experienced Rangers, the Go Go Power Rangers series serves as a nice introduction to the Rangers during the early days when they first got their powers. It also focuses on the Rangers’ civilian lives a little more, which is something I

I wasn’t a power ranger fun as a kid. They became popular a little after my time. I was always a big comic and cartoon fan, the show should have been up my alley, but I was too old for it. I recently read tmnt and power rangers and it was a blast. TMNT cartoon came out when I young and I’ve never stopped loving it. When I discovered how fun the PR were in that book I decide to give them another comic chance. Go Go Power Rangers is awesome. The show was never like this. It has characters and grow...

I’m suddenly in a Power Rangers mind frenzy and I HAD to read this. Like, I added a physical copy to my wish list.A comic that covers the more human side of the rangers during the first season?SIGN ME UP BITCH!Sigh...I’m sure you see that rating and think wtf bruh are you even a fan?It might be 9+ years since I last rewatched the first season of Power Rangers but I still have all the OG toys so trust when I say they got some stuff wrong.First, I don’t like this “updated” take with social media,

I've been waiting for a year for this one to drop. I was not disappointed. There's a weird revisionist history to this. The main MMPR comic implies that everything prior to Tommy's introduction still happened, and that the comics are an alternate, albeit darker route for the story. With 'Go Go', we're treated to a full-on re-do of those pre-Tommy days. It reads a bit like a CW show that so happens to have fighting robots. It's fantastic, and unlike the MMPR comics, this can stand on its own as a...

Aside from Saga, Go Go Power Rangers is my favorite current comic. If you watched the original show growing up, you *must* start reading this series. While the show is now dated and goofy, this story is ripe for any reader. Focusing on our chosen teens after they've been made Rangers. There's punchin' and morphin', but above all else is the strain and sacrifice that goes into becoming a Ranger as a high schooler. Friends, family, work. It's a refreshingly grounded version of the show that still

This was so shockingly good. I did not expect much going in and Ryan Parrott and Dan Mora did a phenomenal job of telling a job superhero teen story. Yes, the Power Rangers can be cringe level bad but here they're done really well. We don't get a by the numbers origin tale but more of these are the early days with readers expected to have some history of what's going on. The team all stand out as individuals while not being just a stereotype. Dan Mora's art was very good but all the kids looked

I can't believe the comics of power rangers have been so good that made my 30 year old self like them again haha. So this one is a more down to earth version of the power rangers. While Mighty Morphin series is over the top zanny fun this is more about the personal life of each ranger. With Billy learning to deal with being bullied, the Jason trying to help kids, to Kimberly trying to deal with her love life, and so much more, you get to really feel for these kids. On top of that the threat is i...

[Read as single issues]Disclaimer: This is a review for volumes 1 and 2 together, since they’re one big story before we head into Shattered Grid, and it’s just easier this way.Go Go Power Rangers is an odd beast. When it was announced, I was sceptical. What was the point in two Power Rangers series, both about the same set of Rangers, both set at almost the same time, when you’ve got a wealth of Rangers you could draw from? But getting to read it, the reasons become much more readily apparent.Wh...

This was everything! I need the next volume!

Fantastic art. The changes to the relationships were really nice touches. The story was good but nothing more. The characters do feel more fleshed out and I'm looking forward to the next volume when it comes out. But I could look at the artwork all day.

I didn't know how much I would love this going into it but I should have. I've always been a huge Power Rangers fan. I absolutely loved taking the original rangers and seeing them with this much more modern take. I loved the idea of there having been a 6th friend of theirs who didn't become a ranger and how that affects things. I really liked that we get right into the action. They are already rangers. Then we get some background on the characters in flashbacks and I loved that. It's more in dep...

Loved Go Go Power Rangers comic book that reminds you watching the TV show as a kid but with a new modern twist that makes sense.

The Short AnswerA shockingly well written and engaging story. Somehow they have taken one of the silliest franchises from my youth and turned it into an intelligent and emotional series that I can't put down. If you liked the Power Rangers as a kid you need to read this series.The Long AnswerI'd always heard good things about the modern Power Rangers comics, but kept thinking "how good could they actually be?" Then one day I saw a big Humble Bundle of Power Rangers comics for sale and figured I

I FINALLY got to read Go Go Power Rangers! It seems like it took forever for this collected volume to come out. Through social media I've heard about this ongoing series a lot, especially leading up to the big event, SHATTERED GRID. This series takes place really early in these teens' time as rangers. The stories focus more on their personal lives than fighting Rita and her goons. I really liked the focus on each character. There's added background for one-off episode traits from the tv series.

To pick this up you are probably already a fan of the Power Rangers, however this series deserves a much wider audience than the existing fanbase. Taking the original Mighty Morphin series and characters Ryan Parrott steps it up several levels by injecting solid back stories for all the characters, a teen drama relationship dynamic between the main characters (think somewhere between Buffy and The OC) and most of all believable superhero problems (like guarding their secret identities) and explo...

Finally finished a book. I'm in the middle of a huge reading slump and needed something to help with that, so I decided to purchase volume one of the Go Go Power Rangers series. As a fan of the franchise, I absolutely adored it. I was caught off guard by the ending because I thought there would be a lot more (and I'm honestly tempted to buy volume two) but I guess I was so invested in the final half that I lost track of where I was.Anyway, if you're a fan of the Power Ranger franchise, familiar

A highly enjoyable trip back to the early days of the Mighty Morphin gang. There's a lot of good work here- especially the characterizations of Zack and Trini, who really feel fleshed out compared to the original episodes of the show (which, granted, were produced almost 30 years ago).Things are recontextualized a bit: cell phones exist in this universe and the Youth Center feels a little less like Saved By the Bell's Peach Pit. Still, these are the Rangers you know and love. They're just a bit
