Power Rangers & Ninja Turtles New Crossover — GeekTyrant

The Power Rangers and Ninja Turtles are no strangers to each other and I guess it's time for another crossover. BOOM! Studios and IDW are teaming up with writer Ryan Parrott ( Vicarious ) and illustrator Vincenzo Federici ( Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ) to bring fans Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III . This is the third crossover comic series penned by Parrott and so I'm sure he's got something great cooked up for us fans and while I'm not very familiar with Federici, a look at his Instagram tells me that we've got an incredible creative duo. With Rita and Krang defeated, the bad guys aren't cutting the Rangers and Turtles no slack! Lord Zedd and Shredder have a new plan to take down the radical teen heroes, and if they don't act carefully, they may just succeed. I really liked the first Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series but sadly missed the second series. I'm curious what Zedd and Shredder will get up to. My first instinct is something with the Dark Rangers that were a great idea with just awful execution in season two of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers . Maybe they'll finally get justice? You can read Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III #1 on August 13 from your local comic shop. There's no word on how many issues to expect, but I think it's safe to assume that it will be like the previous two series and run for five issues. What are your predictions for the third crossover story?

Devil May Cry Season 2: Everything we know so far

By Aman Shukla Published on May 24, 2025, 17:30 IST Last updated May 24, 2025, 10:52 IST Netflix's Devil May Cry anime has taken the streaming world by storm, delivering high-octane action and a gripping storyline that has fans clamoring for more. Following the explosive first season, which premiered on April 3, 2025, Netflix quickly confirmed Devil May Cry Season 2, much to the delight of fans worldwide. With a cliffhanger ending that left viewers on edge, anticipation for the next chapter is at an all-time high. Here's everything we know so far about Devil May Cry Season 2. Devil May Cry Season 2 Release Date Speculation While Netflix has officially renewed Devil May Cry for a second season, an exact release date has not been confirmed. Based on the production timeline of Adi Shankar's previous hit, Castlevania , which typically saw a 15-month gap between seasons, we can speculate a potential release window for Devil May Cry Season 2 in summer or autumn 2026. Cast and Characters The voice cast for Devil May Cry Season 2 is expected to see the return of key actors from Season 1, though some changes may occur due to the passing of notable performers. Confirmed and potential returning cast members include: Johnny Yong Bosch as Dante: The charismatic demon hunter, voiced by Bosch, will remain the central figure. Bosch, known for roles in Bleach and Power Rangers , brings a fresh yet faithful take to Dante. Scout Taylor-Compton as Lady: Despite mixed fan reactions to her portrayal, Lady is likely to return, though some X posts suggest her role may be reduced in favor of focusing on Dante and Vergil. Robbie Daymond as Vergil: Vergil's emergence as a key antagonist sets the stage for a significant role in Season 2, with Daymond's performance expected to capture the character's intensity. Hoon Lee as White Rabbit: While the White Rabbit was defeated in Season 1, the series could introduce new villains or revisit his legacy. Chris Coppola as Enzo Ferino: A supporting character who may see further development. Plot Expectations for Devil May Cry Season 2 Devil May Cry Season 1 ended on a dramatic note, with Dante captured and placed in cryostasis by DARKCOM, while his brother Vergil emerged as a formidable antagonist, declaring war on humanity as 'The Knight' under King Mundus. Season 2 is expected to dive deeper into the complex relationship between Dante and Vergil, exploring their sibling rivalry and contrasting paths. The narrative will likely focus on Dante's escape from DARKCOM's facility and his mission to confront Vergil and thwart the demonic invasion. Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

Hasbro Found Another Way to Show You the Original ‘Power Rangers' Again

The future of Power Rangers has been in limbo for a while now. Ever since the conclusion of Cosmic Fury—with no new shows on the horizon (up until very recently), scrapped reboot plans that could've severed the series' historic link with the world of Super Sentai, and the company auctioning off the franchise's history—just what Hasbro wants to do with its inheritance of the superhero franchise has been in doubt. Turns out, for now at least, the answer is the same as it ever was: what if we just found a way to do Mighty Morphin' nostalgia all over again? Such is the case with today's announcement that Hasbro has launched Power Rangers: Re-Ignition on YouTube, which might almost sound like it's new material until you see that it is simply just the first season of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers uploaded in Youtube's 4K resolution. Two to three 'all-new' episodes will release weekly on Hasbro's YouTube channels until October. Although no mention is made in the official press release that accompanied the release of the series on YouTube, Re-Ignition had previously been described as using generative AI to provide its 'enhanced' visuals at New York Toy Fair earlier this year. Hasbro actually soft-launched Re-Ignition a few weeks ago via the Mighty Morphin' Minute, truncated recap-style releases of episodes broken down into short-form video for release on platforms like YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and Tiktok. At least that cleaned-up footage is now getting released in its original form, but still, it's not exactly as 'all-new' as the company describes. But is it enough to get Power Rangers fans to bide their time for any news about the series' future? We've got until October at the least to see.

Power, Pio Pico and the Beginning of Los Angeles Live on Stage

What becomes of the strong and stoic who try to preserve the old ways while the winds of change swirl all around them? Pio Pico was California's last Mexican governor before the territory was ceded to the United States in 1848. Pico lived large in his day, partying and gambling and building lavish monuments around Los Angeles, but died nearly broke. After he died, his tomb was vandalized and his wife's body stripped of her jewels. When his name is spoken today, it's mostly to curse the traffic on his namesake new stage production California Story shines a wildly contemporary light on this ancient L.A. origin story. During Pico's lifetime, Southern California (or as he would have called it Alta California) transformed from a dusty pueblo of maybe 300 to a burgeoning mini metropolis of 55,000 Americans. Everything Pio knew was uprooted and changed as the old traditions and social hierarchies of Spain and Mexico were superseded by cold, hard Yankee capitalism encroaching from the east. East L.A. native Peter Mendoza plays Pico with a ferocious intensity and much wailing and gnashing of teeth, flailing as his empire crumbles around him. He plays the part with such an indignant madness that I could see why he was cast as Night Stalker Richard Ramirez in an upcoming film. As Pico descends into a righteous rage and passionate denial of the new world falling atop him his little brother Andrés (played with elegant coolness by Davi Santos, perhaps best known for playing a refined knight on TV's Power Rangers) attempts to talk some sense into the ex-governor, hobbled by bad luck and bad loans. Blonde-haired and blue-eyed Sawyer Shine practically twirls his moustache in devious delight as he topples the old empires while his long-suffering wife, played by Camila Arteche, suffers some more. Playwright Roger Q. Mason (Lavender Men) spent years developing the story as part of the Califas Trilogy, three productions about 'land, power and dreams' and the past, present and future of our state. California Story joins Hide & Hide and Juana Maria on L.A. stages through June. Mason's surrealist staging shifts back and forth through three centuries with the aid of the Legendary Children, a roller-skating Greek chorus inspired by Disney's Hercules, that pops in and out of the dream. The innovative staging, lighting and special effects are almost overpowering, but then you realize you're sitting around the campfire, listening to stories of those who were here before you.

Power Rangers Prime is the Reboot Fans Want — GeekTyrant

I grew up in an era of American tokusatsu shows. I'm talking Power Rangers , VR Troopers , Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog , Big Bad Beetleborgs , to name a few. BOOM! Studios has recently been mixing two of these with their comic series Power Rangers Prime . The series is written by Melissa Flores with art by Michael Yg and I'm loving it. This article feels a little awkward in terms of timing because I've read the already released Power Rangers Prime #1-6, #7 comes out on June 4, and Vol. 1 which includes #1-4 releases on June 3. I think my approach will be to mostly cover the first four issues, but I might allude to things that happen in #5-6. I will also say that anything revealed in the first issue will not fall under the spoiler tag, but later issues will. The Power Rangers universe is reborn… It's time for Prime! In this thrilling relaunch of the Power Rangers comic book universe, five young adults are chosen to inherit incredible powers, suddenly finding themselves in a universe-spanning conflict with an authoritarian empire, alien monsters, and a very… familiar villain. This is a completely original take on Power Rangers and I am all for it. Many of the characters we follow are original characters like Mark and Jun, but then there are familiar faces like Lauren Shiba and Bulkmeier. So far, I really like how most of the main characters appear to be original, but there are handfuls of beloved characters sprinkled in here and there as a treat for longtime fans. It's very important to remember that this is a completely different universe than what we're used to in a Power Rangers series. Yes, it takes place on Earth, but it's an Earth with tons of aliens around and Eltarians came to Earth 70 years prior to help against another alien invasion and they have since colonized Earth. The VR Troopers are the superheroes that help stop big problems because Power Rangers are not approved by Eltar which is what establishes a big part of the conflict in this series. As you can probably tell from that last paragraph, Power Rangers Prime very much looks at political struggles like classism (colonizer vs refugee) and racism (Eltarian vs non-Eltarian) as well as police states and how different groups experiencing it view the world around them. There's also the classic good vs evil, friendship, relationships, etc. As you can tell, the Power Rangers are going to be more of a resistance force instead of the heroes of grandeur that we are used to. I'm in love with this story from Flores and the art from Yg. Everything is so well cared for so far and I highly recommend that any Power Rangers fan pick this one up. The redesigns of some characters and suits are also very cool. I mean, just look at the Red Ranger from the cover of Power Rangers Prime #1! I'm definitely going to do my best to keep up with Power Rangers Prime .
