Kickstarter Exclusive hardcovers of all the oneshot graphic novels they've done up to now, as well as complete collections of the oldschool comics by Marvel and Image Comics.

Something to note is that if you want hardcover collections of specific arcs, you can get those as add-ons. This even includes the entirety of GoGo separated into two big volumes. Wish they had the collector's' box as an add-on though.

If this includes the Youngblood/Zeo crossover, I'll chip in.

Do tell!

Well, a long time ago in a video far away, a Comic Reviewer named Linkara reviewed two issues of the short-lived Power Rangers Zeo comic printed by Image in 1996. Rendered lovingly in the studio's house art style, Liefeld proportions and all.

Not only is it the first recorded instance of Zeo-Fighters (the jets from Ohranger that were glossed over in Zeo), but at the end of the video, Linkara teased a review for the lost Zeo/Youngblood teamup.

I say lost, because the only evidence pointing to its' existence are 1. A listing in a magazine, 2. A teaser at the end of Issue 2, and 3. A few uncoloured pages.

This is... unexpected! All these years, I never even heard of this unrealized crossover! An incredible tidbit in the franchise's history and a wonderful deep-dive.

Two issues would suggest that they didn't have the license for long and the issues must not have sold well. Cancelled after two definitely sucks!

I do know that not everyone likes the infamous Liefeld style, but I can take it or leave it.

I do think the Ohranger Jets were seen very briefly in the Zeo episode "The Shooting Star", but the fact that they have a "canonical" inclusion is something else.

What magazine was this listed in, and where does one find these uncolored pages?

Shame this never happened. Not like BOOM! and Image would do a collaboration with Hasbro's blessing.

Or would they?

I'll drop this Article; https://www.thetimelinemachine.com/a...eo-youngblood/ It's pretty old, but it lists everything you'd want to know.

As the campaign has passed four stretch goals, the following things have been unlocked:

1. Everyone who contributes to the campaign will receive PDF copies of all three collections for free.
2. Every hardcover and slipcover will now be made of nicer material.
3. A brand new comic series for Power Rangers will be fully revealed on the 31st. For now, they've posted a teaser image of Rita Repulsa.
4. Everyone who pledges $200 or more via tiers and/or add-ons will receive a set of Angel Grove inspired patches.

Why does Boom Studios need a kickstarter?

[Sheepweaver95]

I ask that a lot from Hasbro and Mattel. But with Boom Studios, it makes a little more sense. They're not a big publisher like Marvel or DC, and they're releasing a niche title for a niche audience.

The new comic series was revealed to be on co-written by Amy Jo Johnson. Makes me wonder if this is what became of that one idea she pitched awhile back about a comic special following the MMPR cast decades later.
