Coming this Summer from BOOM! Studios, in collaboration with leading games, IP) and toy company Hasbro, the ONLY place to get new, official POWER RANGERS comic book stories. The VR Troopers are the most elite of the Eltarian empire's human heroes on Earth, but what secrets are the Eltarian's keeping?
