Media Release -- BOOM! Studios and Hasbro unveiled today a first look at SABAN'S GO GO POWER RANGERS #13, kicking off a major new storyline in the aftermath of Shattered Grid this October from series writer Ryan Parrott and new series artist Eleonora Carlini (Batgirl).
After coming face-to-face with the Ranger Slayer, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers are still trying to make sense of the incredible encounter and settling back into their normal teen lives. Little do they know that Rita Repulsa is setting into motion a plan to retrieve an artifact that might be the key to besting Zordon and the Rangers once and for all – the Green Power Coin!
This issue features a main cover by Dan Mora (Klaus), along with variant covers by Miguel Mercado (Over The Garden Wall), Audrey Mok (Archie) and Natacha Bustos (Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur).
"After Shattered Grid, this is the only comic book series where you can see the five original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in action," said Dafna Pleban, Senior Editor, BOOM! Studios. "Now we're going to see the biggest story in SABAN'S GO GO POWER RANGERS yet, as Ryan and Eleonora reveal a massive piece of Ranger history and take the team places you never imagined!"

Studios webstore. Digital copies can be purchased from content providers like comiXology, iBooks, Google Play, and the BOOM! Studios app.
