Lord Drakkon to Lead New Power Rangers in Upcoming Comic

Lord Drakkon returns this summer and he’s got some new friends. BOOM! Studios recently announced Power Rangers Unlimited: The Coinless, a new 40-page one-shot comic. Written by Adam Cesare (Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal) with art by Moisés Hidalgo (Dark Blood), colors by Arthur Hesli (Heavy Metal Magazine), and letters by Ed Dukshire, The Coinless will see Drakkon return and create a new team of Power Rangers. This is going to be incredible!

As if the medium-spanning, fan-favorite villain Drakkon wasn’t enough of a threat, Mistress Vile has special plans of her own… ones that will bring the Rangers’ greatest foe into our world! But this scheming isn’t without consequences for Drakkon, and he’ll have to take a page from Zordon’s book if he wants the world of The Coinless to survive.

Talking about writing the comic, Cesare shared:

I got to work in the world of the Power Rangers once before, a short story way back during Shattered Grid, and I've wanted back in ever since. And to get to help tell this story? Drakkon assembling a new team of rangers? And the Coinless world is super messed up so the storytelling's coloring with shades of George Romero and Mad Max? And Moisés Freakin' Hidalgo? Come on. This is incredible.

Hidalgo added:

Coming back to work with Power Rangers and Boom! Studios is such a special thing for me. As another Chilean (Pedro Pascal) says ‘This is the way.’ Adam´s scripts are really fantastic, and it’s a joy to draw each page. We are all doing our best work for all fans of the Power Rangers universe.

I’m extremely psyched for this one-shot! The world of the Coinless has been really fascinating to me and I cannot wait to return. You can read The Coinless on June 28 from your local comic shop or wherever you like to buy comics. The main cover art is by fan favorite Dan Mora with variants from Goñi Montes and Stephanie Hans also available.
