Boom! Studios and Hasbro are set to explore the untold story of Tommy Oliver this December with the release of the original graphic novel Power Rangers: Soul of the Dragon, which comes from the creative team of writer Kyle Higgins (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers), artist Giuseppe Cafaro (Justice League vs Suicide Squad) and the original Green Ranger himself Jason David Frank as special consultant. Check out a first look preview here…
“We were really excited to dig into what really makes Tommy tick, beyond being a Ranger, but what he will do to protect the people in his life that he loves—and the lengths he’ll go to keep them safe, even if it means returning to a life that you thought was in the past,” said Dafna Pleban, Senior Editor, BOOM! Studios. “Saban’s Power Rangers: Soul of the Dragon is all about the difficulty of determining the right thing—and the fight to make it a reality, even when the odds seem stacked against you. Luckily for Tommy, he’s no ordinary man—and this is no ordinary adventure!”
“Saban’s Power Rangers: Soul of the Dragoncontinues to exemplify the exciting ways we are working with BOOM! Studios to develop new Power Rangers stories that both expand and deepen our lore,” said Brian Casentini, SVP Power Rangers Franchise Development and Production. “It’s been a pleasure collaborating with Kyle, Giuseppe, Jason David Frank, and the entire team at BOOM! Studios to help bring to life a story that both honors the rich 25 year history of a character as iconic as Tommy Oliver while also moving his story forward in bold, exciting, and surprising new ways.”
It’s been a long time since Tommy Oliver has served as a Power Ranger. He’s defeated space witches, brought down evil armies, protected the galaxy, but now Tommy leaves protecting the world to the Power Rangers at Space Patrol Delta. But when his son goes missing, it’s up to Tommy to discover a secret in his past, in order to save his future. Now Tommy will call on all his training, his friends, and maybe even some of his enemies as he sets out on his most important mission: find his son and bring him home.
Saban’s Power Rangers: Soul of the Dragon is set to arrive in stores in December.
