''Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers'' is a comic book series based on the TV series of the same name published by Creator/BoomStudios. The series is a reboot happening in a different timeline to any past media or the upcoming movie, and is more mature than the series' usual campy tone.

A spin-off series focusing on Kimberly after leaving Angel Grove is also being released.

!This series contains examples of:
* AdaptationalBadass:
** 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.
** The Dinozords are space-worthy, as demonstrated when Tommy pilots the Dragonzord ''to the moon.''
* AdultFear: Kimberly witnesses her own mother [[spoiler: being turned into a monster]] in Pink.
* AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs: In issue 7, Rita occupies the Commander Centre and parks her throne right in the middle.
* BadassBiker: Kimberly in the "Pink" spinoff.
* BothSidesHaveAPoint: 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, with Jason needing to be clear about orders to the other Rangers and Tommy needing to ask clarification when he doesn't know what to do.
* BroadStrokes:
** Begins shortly after the Green With Evil saga, with the events of previous episodes presumably having happened (various early monsters are shown in flashbacks).
** It goes even further in the Pink Ranger series, which takes place at least two years after the main series since it starts after Kim leaves for the Pan Global Games.
* TheBusCameBack: [[spoiler:Zack and Trini return to help Kimberly by becoming Power Rangers again in ''Pink'' #2.]]
* CallForward:
** Lieutenant Stone is assigned to supervise Bulk and Skulls community service, 2 years before he becomes their superior when they join the Junior Police Force.
** The reveal that [[spoiler: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.
* ChildSoldiers: 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.
* ContinuityNod:
** Alpha mentions that Kimberly is still the bearer of the Pink Energy since her powers weren't transferred with the Sword of Light, allowing her to become the Pink Ranger again.
** [[spoiler:Goldar uses the Sword of Light to power his new war Zord, which he built from the wreckage of the Rangers old Zords.]]
** Goldar's story from the annual mentions [[spoiler: Lord Zedd's disfigurement from the Zeo Crystal and Ninjor empowering the Aquitar Rangers.]]
* DarkerAndEdgier: Than the show it's based on.
* FiveManBand: Just like in the show each of the Ranger's fills a specific role in the team.
** TheLeader: Jason, who gives orders to the team in the field and acts like a military commanding officer.
** TheLancer: Zack, who acts as the second in command to Jason. [[{{Reconstruction}} Reconstructed]] as he's shown to resent Jason and Tommy overshadowing him but keeping the resentment in check because of genuine loyalty to TheLeader and because said leader honestly appreciates his help.
** TheBigGuy: Trini. Being [[AllAsiansKnowMartialArts the most focused on martial arts]], her contribution to the team is mostly through fighting.
** TheSmartGuy: Billy who is the most academic of the Rangers and is called on to assess mechanical issues. [[{{Reconstruction}} Reconstructed]] as he feels out of place among the more athletic Rangers, but Trini point out that his technical knowledge is far more valuable than any martial arts expertise he has. The problems of having just one tech guy are also shown, as without him even [[TranslatorBuddy Trini]] admits that she only knows enough to keep up with his TechnoBabble,
** TheChick: Kimberly, who is more emotionally open than the others and is the only one to unerringly accept Tommy.
** SixthRanger: Tommy, who joined later than the main five. [[{{Reconstruction}} Reconstructed]] as he is ''not'' EasilyForgiven for his actions while brainwashed and the other Rangers have difficulty trusting him, but he and they are genuinely motivated to moving past that and bringing him into the team proper.
* GambitRoulette: Rita's plan so far has 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 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 Ranger's 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.
* InvoluntaryShapeshifting: [[spoiler:Kimberly's mother and stepfather, as well as most of the population of St. Moineau, are turned into monsters by Goldar in ''Pink'' #1.]]
* MythologyGag:
** Rita's palace is revealed to be called "Bandora's Palace", just like the sign on the front says (Bandora was the name of the villain in ''Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger'', which Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers was originally based on).
** Bulk and Skull are sentenced to 1,993 hours of community service. 1993 is the year ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers'' began.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Rita's normal ''modus operandi'' is send down monsters and make them grow. Issue 4 ends with a giant monster appearing and ''shrinking down'' to fight the Rangers.
* ParentsInDistress: Kimberly's mother in the Pink series.
* PocketDimension: The Rangers have one for training simulations.
* RealityEnsues: ''Oh yeah''.
** Tommy in the show was seen to be EasilyForgiven 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 committed treason 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 annual depicts the stress such battles would take on the Rangers themselves as well as depicting the destruction the battles would cause
* {{Reconstruction}}:
** Seems to be heading this way as the liberal doses of DarkerAndEdgier and RealityEnsues don't showcase why the elements of the series don't work but prove why they do.
** So far it's given Zack and Trini moments to express that they want to move on to bigger things, thus better setting up their departure to the Peace Conference than the show did.
* SettingUpdate: The series is set in the 2010's instead of the 90's, as in the original show.
* ShesBack: The ''Pink'' miniseries focuses on Kimberly, who gains new Pink Ranger powers.
* StormingTheCastle: Tommy and Jason take the Dragonzord to Rita's moon palace [[spoiler: to rescue Billy from the Dark Dimension.]]
* SuperheroParadox: [[InvokedTrope 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 CardCarryingVillain, Zack doesn't buy it.
* TenMinuteRetirement:
** Kimberly gains new powers from Zordon when the Rangers can't help her save St. Moineau, becoming a Pink Ranger again.
** She soon recruits [[spoiler: Trini and Zack and re-powers them as well.]]
* UnwinnableTrainingSimulation: Tommy and Kimberly go through one in issue 1. It's a mark of Tommy's mental state that he demands another go even after Zordon spells out the "unwinnable" part for him.
* WeCanRuleTogether: Issue 5 reveals that Rita tried to recruit Zack as the Green Ranger before Tommy.

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 has been hallucinating her presence to keep him 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 Ranger's 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.

** Tommy in the show was seen to be EasilyForgiven for his actions while brainwashed. This 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 committed treason to do it.
** 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.
