The following contains spoilers for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #2, available now from BOOM! Studios and IDW.
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles finally uncover a way to stop their closest ally from being lost as the latest villainous Power Ranger.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #2 by returning Power Rangers scribe Ryan Parrott (Rogue Sun) and artist Dan Mora (Batman/Superman: World's Finest) finds Rita Repulsa's minions and their mutant compatriots gathered together to receive both the Evil Space Queen's praise and condemnation, including Casey Jones. All the while, the eponymous heroes are left to wonder what they could possibly do to free Casey from her clutches, though the Rangers already have one idea in that regard. As Tommy Oliver knows from his time under Rita's thrall, she tends to enchant something sentimental belonging to her twisted Ranger, and there is nothing Casey loves more than his infamous hockey stick.
The Power Rangers and Nina Turtle's New Crossover Continues a 2019 Storyline
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II has continued the story that began in the franchise's last comic book crossover in 2019. While the Rangers were cut off from their abilities the first time around -- which then led the Heroes in a Half Shell to take up the Rangers' Morphers in their stead -- the latest storyline has seen the heroes still reeling from prior events amidst a return to relative normalcy.
Along with the current crossover series, IDW has paid homage to 1997's infamous Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation live-action television show in its currently ongoing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic book series by reintroducing Venus De Milo, the first female Ninja Turtle; although, she returns in a far different form than her small-screen predecessor. Rather than a lost sibling to the original four members of the Splinter Clan, the current Venus was cobbled together by the villainous Doctor Jasper Barlow from loose limbs, Donatello's former carapace, and a scale of the Dragon who dearly destroyed New York City.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #2 is written by Ryan Parrott, with art by Dan Mora, colors by Raúl Angulo and letters by Ed Dukeshire. Main cover art is by Mora, with variant cover art by Kevin Eastman, Freddie Williams II, Andrew Dalhouse, Tim Lattie, Bon Bernardo, Taurin Clarke, Simone Di Meo, Junggeun Yoon, Simone Ragazzoni, Ariel Olivetti, Goñi Montes, Sajad Shah, R1c0, John Giang, Derrick Chew, Ivan Tao and Doaly. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II #2 is on sale now from BOOM! Studios and IDW.
