Mighty Morphin Power Rangers – Rita's Rewind #1 arrives with a 30‑year‑later twist

When a future‑fueled Rita partners with her own robotic doppelgänger, the original Mighty Morphin team faces a threat before they even suit up. A fresh squad from the era of the new game rushes back to lend a hand, promising a nostalgic 90s adventure for longtime fans and newcomers alike.

Rita Repulsa isn’t working alone this time. She brings a future version of herself—Robo‑Rita, a mechanized echo from three decades ahead—to sabotage the Rangers at the very start of their legend. The premise flips the classic formula, positioning the villains with a temporal edge that forces the heroes to think before they even morph.

To counter this unprecedented assault, a team of Rangers pulled from the game's future—Rocky, Kat, Billy, Zack and Minh—travel back in time. Operating behind the scenes, they aim to guide their predecessors, creating a layered battlefield where past and future strategies collide. The story balances the familiar dynamic of the original crew with fresh perspectives from the new generation.

Writer Zoe Tunnell brings a lively, character‑driven script that feels both reverent to the original series and daring enough for a modern audience. Tango’s art, bright and true to the 90s aesthetic, captures the kinetic energy of the showdown while delivering crisp, expressive panels. The cover, also by Tango, sets the tone with bold colors that scream retro arcade vibes, making the issue a standout on any shelf.

If this time‑bending tale piques your interest, you might also enjoy the earlier Marvel‑published Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie comic. It offers a nostalgic glimpse at the franchise’s first big crossover and complements the new series’ blend of classic lore and fresh twists. Both books celebrate the enduring spirit of the Rangers in different eras.

Drop by the shop or scroll to the digital store when it lands on August 6, 2025, and give Rita’s rewind a spin. It’s a perfect entry point for anyone craving a blend of retro charm and new‑school adventure.
