Included in the company’s 25th anniversary celebration plans are the wide slate of partners who help bring the Saban's iconic Power Rangers franchise to life, such as BOOM! Studios, the comic book publisher behind the widely successful Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic series.
While BOOM! Studios’ work with the Power Rangers has become renowned by fans for its deep and compelling stories, it’s also become known for its rich and colorful artwork. And in 2018, fans will be able to watch the publisher’s stunning artwork depict all 25 years of Power Rangers history in vivid detail like never before.
Power Rangers Artist Tribute is coming, a 112-page hardcover collection of incredible artwork that spans across all 25 years of Power Rangers history, as listed on Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk. The book will visualize fans’ favorite Rangers, Zords, and monsters, as only a group of passionate illustrators and comic book artists could imagine.
"Celebrating 25 years of Power Rangers with beautiful art tributes from artists around the world!
Since its debut in 1993, Power Rangers has been a worldwide phenomenon capturing the love and excitement of fans young and old. In honor of the 25th anniversary, return to your favorite heroes, zords, and monsters with this collection of unique artistic voices in a celebration stretching across all twenty five years of the superhero team.
Power Rangers Artist Tribute features illustrations from illustrators, comic book artists, and designers alike."
Artwork will be featured from illustrators ranging from Jamal Campbell, to Goni Montes, to Steve Morris, all fan-beloved artists from BOOM! Studios’ Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic series.
Fans can already pre-order their copy Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk, which is slated for release on March 27, 2018 at an estimated price of $24.99 USD/£19.17 GBP.
The cover artwork seen above, from Amazon, is subject to change.
Saban Brands first released a tease of things to come for Power Rangers’ 25th Anniversary at Licensing Expo 2017 in June. Among the highlights released were:
- Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel, the show’s 25th season airing on Nickelodeon in the United States.
- New Legacy toys from Bandai.
- New mythology stories from Boom! Studios’ comics.
- An ultimate visual history book from Insight Editions.
- Live, location-based events with details to come.
In additional Power Rangers merchandise news:
Saban have released another look at their anticipated Legacy Dinozords. The Zords are part of Bandai's rescaled line of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, and in the latest images, fans can see the design schematics of the upcoming figures. Being that this is the Legacy line, you can expect the overall design and art style to stay the same. That said, the design schematics give a great idea of just how articulated the new Zords will be.
The line is set to kick off with the Red Ranger's Tyrannosaurus Rex Dinozord and the Yellow Ranger's Sabertooth Tiger Dinozord. Each Zord will come with the appropriate Power Rangers as well, with the other Rangers and their Zords following soon thereafter.
You can view both schematics below.

Once all are released you will be able to form the Megazord, which will be in proper scale with the rest of the Legacy line. These should hit stores sometime in 2018.
Bandai's Legacy line is finally expanding into Power Rangers Zeo territory, with the Gold Ranger's Golden Power Staff as the next full-scale release.
