Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: 30th Anniversary Special #1

BOOM! Studios

#4 Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: 30th Anniversary Special #1

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: 30th Anniversary Special #1 is a celebration of everything Power Rangers, from people who love Power Rangers. I can’t recommend this one-shot enough, whether you’ve been reading the MMPR comics since the first issue or you’ve watched every episode of Power Rangers. Or both. It’s truly morphinomenal.

W0RLDTR33 #5 Fantastic Five

Image Comics

#2 W0RLDTR33 #5

W0RLDTR33 #5 is a perfect end to a nearly perfect first arc, with James Tynion IV masterfully weaving together a story of corruption, tragedy, unending mystery, and potentially even hope into a unique vision of what’s to come. Grounded in gorgeous art from Blanco and Bellaire and stellar lettering from Bidikar, W0RLDTR33 #5 will continue to shock readers while promising even more amazing world building.

#1 Action Comics: Doomsday Special #1

With all of the cards in place, Action Comics: Doomsday Special #1 by Dan Watters, Eddie Barrows, Eber Ferriera, Adriano Lucas, Max Raynor, and Andrew Dalhouse is a terrifying and exciting event setup that will lead to a new era of Supergirl and Martian Manhunter.
