COMIC REVIEW – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #5 (Marvel)

The Rangers take a hike in the mountains where they encounter a vortex that they eventually get sucked into because… well, I don’t want to spoil it, but it’s a nice little, touching tail of a well-meaning thing needing help and let’s leave it at that. Simple, to the point, and somehow more high concept than the typical Power Rangers fare. And the artwork is fine for this, too.

Second story brings us the return of the horrible art… and a boy who lies about monsters before encountering a real monster and nobody believes him. It’s a Marvel take on a Ranger take on an old parable and it’s harmless fare save for the humans who look hideous… but at least the Rangers look alright. Not exactly high praise, but there you go.

By the way, for reasons that escape me in the second story, Adam’s wearing a T-Shirt with a Goku-like head (‘cuz he’s ASIAN – HAR) while Aisha is wearing Body Glove-like gear… anyone remember Body Glove. Is that a thing still?
