Of all the conflicts that the Power Rangers have faced over the course of more than three decades, BOOM! Studios’ Darkest Hour is by far the most harrowing. Apart from losing one crucial battle after another, the Rangers have been forced to watch their very same powers fall into the hands of a myriad of their worst enemies. Now, even the most seasoned of heroes are left wondering what exactly it means to be a Ranger in the first place, and the harsh truth behind that question has absolutely nothing to do with the power they wield.With Tommy Oliver caught in the clutches of Mistress Vile and Dark Specter’s army on the verge of overtaking the entire globe, the Power Rangers have been spread dangerously thin. As seen in the pages of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #115 (by Melissa Flores, Simona Di Gianfelice, Raúl Angulo, Jose Enrique Fernández, and Ed Dukeshire), this has led to non-superpowered individuals getting caught in the crossfire, even if it was for having joined in the fray for himself in the case of former Red Ranger Jason Lee Scott. Fortunately, Jason still has friends like Kimberly Ann Hart to check up on him on occasion.While the kinds of possessed or abjectly evil Power Rangers of today are a far cry from anything fans saw in 1993’s original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers television series, similar varieties of twisted versions of the titular heroes have been around from nearly the very beginning. Apart from Tommy Oliver’s introduction, fall, and subsequent rise throughout the series’ “Green With Evil” story arc, the original Power Rangers also faced off against the earliest of their own doppelgängers in the forms of both the Mutant and Dark Rangers, each little more than rudimentary substitutes crafted from Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd’s otherwise ordinary Putty minions. Though these particular Dark Rangers were no real match for their counterparts, actual evil clones of the likes of Billy Cranston would cause a great deal more harm in the rare one-off stories where they appeared.
