5 Things We Want to See in the Power Rangers War Storyline

Thunderzords

Fans who have been reading Mighty Morphin Power Rangers will remember that the Thunderzords have shown up already, but they were busted and broken thanks to the war waged by Lord Drakkon.

The Rangers assembled all of their various Zords, including the Thunderzords, White Tigerzord, Falconzord, and Tor the Shuttlezord. Alas, it wasn't enough, and the Thunderzords were mostly destroyed and left to rot at the remnants of the Command Center.

Now, that was all in the dark universe, but it would seem Lord Drakkon could end up mounting another army to take on the Rangers in this universe. If that's the case, the Rangers would likely need an upgrade, and seeing the Thunderzords brought in as a permanent fixture could be just the thing to even the odds.

More Psycho Rangers

It was revealed in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #20 that Zordon has encountered the Psycho Rangers in the past, and while the Green Psycho Ranger seems to be destroyed, there are four more out there that are probably really pissed about his death.

As seen in that issue, one Psycho Ranger can do an unbelievable amount of damage. Throw in four who are even angrier than usual and you have a recipe for disaster.

If they join forces with Drakkon, who also almost took the Rangers down by his lonesome, it might be too much for the Rangers to stop.

Grace As A Ranger Again

In Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #19, it was revealed that Grace Sterling is Zordon's original Red Ranger. While she's the head of Promethea these days, Drakkon's war could be the perfect excuse to pull her out of retirement.

Now, she didn't depart on the best of terms (see Power Rangers #20), and she clearly has issues with Zordon. Still, sometimes you have to put adversarial relationships aside to save the world, and it would be amazing to see Grace get another chance to put on the Red Ranger suit.

It's not like there haven't been multiple Red Rangers before, and this would certainly be a worthy occasion to pull out all the stops.

White Ranger

Speaking of Rangers, few are more popular than Tommy Oliver. These days in Mighty Morphin he is still representing the Green, but Drakkon's presence could mean it is time for a change.

Drakkon is a blend of the Green and White Rangers, and to keep him from taking even more power our universe's Oliver might need to take the power of the White Ranger for himself.

Granted, he would have to give up the Green Ranger abilities, but he's done that in the past.

Actually, come to think about it, wouldn't it be amazing to see him take the White Ranger power and give the Green Ranger power to Grace Sterling? It would keep it out of the hands of Drakkon and might have something to do with her having the Green Psycho Ranger's dagger.

Who knows, but it is a nice setup, right?

Return Of The Resistance

One of the best parts of the Lord Drakkon storyline was meeting the resistance. This group of rebels was made up of the Rangers that survived Drakkon's onslaught, a group led by Zack.

The standout in this group though was Trini, who due to the loss of Billy in their world had taken on a more aggressive and stark attitude. Over time she comes back around a bit, but you won't confuse her anytime soon for the Trini of our world.

Other members of the resistance include Bulk and Skull as well as Aisha (the future Yellow Ranger), and everyone has adopted a more survivalist mentality. It was amazing to see this group do whatever they can in the wake of Drakkon's dominance, and it would be equally amazing to see them come to our universe's Rangers aid if things start to go south.
