Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Pink, Volume 1 by Brenden Fletcher, Kelly Thompson
3.0

So when I was a kid, Kimberly was my biggest crush ever. I mostly watched Power Rangers at 8 or 9 for her (And also the big dinosaur robots). So I was kind of excited to read this but did it live up to the rest of the power ranger series?

Kimberly is trying to visit her parents but when she gets there, the whole entire town they are staying in is completely empty. So she then goes on a mission to save them. With her she has two more rangers to join her force and...we have basically a Saturday cartoon episode. Save the town from the evil forces!

Good: I like Kimberly here. She's still high spirited and ready to kick some butt. There's also some funny moments, and the costumes in this are pretty great. It also plays as a standalone pretty good.

Bad: The art sometimes feels second handed. As if it's not the main title so not as much heart is put in to this title. I also thought the fights kind of lacked the hmph we've been getting in the main series. Also, the ending is cheesy but not in a good way.

Overall this is a okay standalone. Not horrible but not as good as I hoped. Kimberly deserves better. A 2.5 out of 5.
