It’s morphin’ time! By which I mean it’s nearly the weekend and soon I’ll morph from a productive member of society into a bump on a log, sitting on my couch and playing The Witcher 3 until my eyes dry out. (What? It’s still fun.) But before I transform into a Megazord of human laziness, let’s end this week on a high note with a gallery of exclusive covers for BOOM! Studios Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers #5.
The latest issue in the series is a special one-shot focusing on one of Rita Repulsa’s most sinister schemes yet: trying to tempt Zack, the Black Ranger, to the dark side rather than Tommy. The issue, from the Batman Beyond 2.0 team of Thony Silas and Kyle Higgins, hits stores this July, but you can get an exclusive sneak peek at its many, many variant covers in our gallery below.
