With Zedd powered up and all sorts of chaos going on across the galaxy, how will our Mighty Morphin Power Rangers handle this new threat?

Facing Evil Face to Face

Grace is astonished by Zedd having a morpher and is damn near unstoppable. Where on the other end of the galaxy, Xi is starting to interrogate Alpha 1. Meanwhile, Trini is having second thoughts about the measure that they should interrogate Alpha-1.

Bro Fight!!!

Kim and Tommy have a chat off the page and that leads Tommy to need to blow off some stream. How does a martial artist do that? Big sparring match at the juice bar duh! But in typical fashion Rita attacks but this time with HER GREEN RANGER!

Kimberly is beside herself the frustration of the situation, and it is weighing on her, and the only thing that can help it. Space Kitty SNUGS!

BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE!

We have two attacks happening at the same time. Zedd at the Prometheus and Matt and the Putties in Angel Grove. Jason gets knocked out while Billy teleports in and he and Tommy try and double-team Matt. The whole time Matt is going goading them on to fight and just when you think Matt has the upper hand Kimberly and Aisha make it back in time as a backup.

While Zedd is wreaking havoc on Grace’s facility. Mistress Vile with her new minion vessel shows up and crashes the party. Mistress Vile chooses not to get her hands dirty and orders Vessel to attack Zedd. During the fight, we find out that Vessel is ZORDON! Well, at least his body, and this shocks Zedd.

Alpha-1 didn’t know when to shut up so Xi found out a bunch of information including the fact that there is still something going on. We got to see it in the pages, but this is where I’m going to stop so you can enjoy the twist ending.

Thoughts from THE GRID

Wow, this issue jumped all over, but that’s okay! There are so many spinning plates, and Misty Flores works at a mind-boggling pace to keep them all up. It’s all coming to fruition right now. I mentioned before that issue 106 was the top of the rollercoaster hill with the big Morphed Zedd reveal. I would say this issue just pushed the hill a little bit further… AND I’M HERE FOR IT! Seeing Flores’ style I can guarantee a most excellent and satisfying payoff!

She recognizes that the teens are still teens, not just soldiers in a long-running intergalactic saga. Filling those panels with real emotion and not just a monster-of-the-week A to B to C story. Continuing the Zack and Trini unrequited love story. Tommy missing his brother in arms, Jason. I hope we get back to the Aisha and Adam dynamic soon too.

For me, I think Kimberly has been the stand-out. She’s still going thru the feelings of her parent’s divorce and the breadcrumbs that Mat Groom sprinkled before issue #100, with the concern about “what are we fighting for” and “will I make a difference” that can compound into a heavy feeling of inadequacy. But she did get Yale snuggles, and I’m SUPER JEALOUS

Getting confirmation that Vessel is Zordon’s physical body is such a great spin on the lore. I’m intrigued by how this is going to play out in the long run. Adding something like this after the Eltarian War and Zedd’s backstory adds a whole new layer. It makes me feel for Zedd in a particular way, Having been used as a pawn in the past to then see his friend (in some form) also used as a pawn in his ex’s nefarious schemes.
