Godzilla vs. The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #3 is the third issue of IDW Publishing and BOOM! Studios' five-issue crossover comic miniseries. It was published on May 25, 2022.[2]

Description

Everyone reading this series is expecting a team-up, and here it is! Only, this might not be what they had in mind! What's worse than a villainous monster from the Godzilla universe? Villainous monsters from the Godzilla and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers universes! And they're joining forces to destroy the Power Rangers!

Plot

The Megazord slams a Ferris wheel into Rhinoblaster and kicks Eye Guy out of the air as Gigan advances towards it. The three monsters regroup and stagger the damaged machine with their beam attacks. Rita Repulsa's monsters taunt the Power Rangers as they press their advantage, and are confused when Gigan simply smacks the Megazord with a Hammer Hand without saying anything. Aboard the Xilien UFO, Rita tries taking control of the Green Ranger's mind once more, but he successfully resists her. She explains that she plans to betray the Xiliens, find a way to control the monsters of this reality, and bring them back to hers to dominate the planet.

The Megazord repels the monster trio with its Cranial Laser, then knocks them off their feet with a sweeping kick. Gigan approaches it from behind as it focuses on Rhinoblaster, only to be blasted away by Godzilla's atomic breath. The wounded monster attacks all four combatants with tail strikes, atomic breath, and grappling, but soon begins to tire. The Black Ranger laments that they have no way to communicate to Godzilla that they share a common enemy, inspiring the Blue and Red Rangers to call forth the Power Sword. They use the energy from the blade to heal Godzilla's wounds, and he tail-whips Rhinoblaster toward them for a killing blow. The Megazord trains its Cranial Laser on Gigan next, while Godzilla destroys Eye Guy with his atomic breath.

Gigan retreats as Rita rages at her defeat. She demands that the Xiliens supply more of their monsters, as Finster's take time to craft. The Supreme Controller of Planet X cautions her that their other monsters are less easy to control - and that his people are not hers to control. She then sends Scorpina down to Angel Grove to aid the aliens' monsters.

As Godzilla regards the Megazord, the Power Rangers wonder if the powered-up monster will simply resume his attack on them. Before he can decide, Megaguirus knocks them both off balance. She is joined by Kamacuras, Kumonga, and a monstrous, gigantic Scorpina, who throws down a challenge.

Trivia

  • The Power Rangers monster Pirantishead is featured on Cover B, but does not appear within the issue itself, nor in any issue of the series.
  • Though Cover B was designed as a gatefold cover, the back part of the cover was not printed on the physical release. This mistake was also reflected in the cover gallery at the end of the issue, which only includes the front half of the cover. The error would not be rectified until the trade paperback's release, which included the full gatefold art in its cover gallery.
