Go Go Power Rangers has a knack for balancing the bigger than life moments with grounded and relatable characters, and the book’s approach to Shattered Grid will be no different. ComicBook.com had the chance to sit down with Go Go Power Rangers writer Ryan Parrott to talk all things Go Go, including which Rangers will have the biggest arcs over the course of this story.

“I came to this book with the concept that sort of trying to come up with … there was a lot of themes that played into it, you know the sort of forgotten friends is a big theme that played out for the first twelve issues,” Parrott said. “The concept of evil being important to your life and then for a small section of it and then you know we all grow and evolve and change and move on so that’s a big one. But another aspect that we wanted to talk about was sort of facing the future.”

“So yeah Kimberly I think has the biggest arc in this particular section because she’s going to be facing her future and is facing a version of herself so that will have an impact on anybody and also will have an impact on the other Rangers.”

That makes sense with the Ranger Slayer running around, but she won’t be the only Ranger to get a substantial arc. The leader of the Rangers will also get some time in the spotlight, as well his relationship with his dad.

“Jason has a good chunk of this one cause … when I was in high school my mother was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and so when I was dealing with that it was all the sudden, it was this extra layer that came upon my regular world and I didn’t tell a lot of people about it because it was something we didn’t know what to do with,” Parrot said. “So it’s weird to have that extra baggage hanging upon you and I just thought it’d be great to see with the Power Rangers who face, you know life and death circumstances every day and they can’t tell anybody about it. It would be … I just thought it was just such a nice contrast to see Jason sort of have to face it in a very personal way.”

“So I’m looking forward to people hopefully, you know seeing where that story goes and how he reacts to it,” Parrot said. “How that evolves his character so I think Jason has a rather large chunk in this particular arc.”
