While numerous villains have tormented the Power Rangers from the very beginning of their Mighty Morphin saga, few have become as synonymous with the franchise as Rita Repulsa. As the Rangers’ first nemesis, Rita has captivated and terrified the franchise’s earliest fans more than most. She’s also gained the opportunity to do so repeatedly courtesy of the series’ many reboots, including the ongoing comics from BOOM! Studios.Rita Repulsa has even taken on entirely new forms thanks to BOOM! Studios’ Power Rangers universe, — something she’s done on multiple occasions. Even today, the Rita fans know best has shed her former self to take on the mantle of Mistress Vile. As of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #117 (by Melissa Flores, Simona Di Gianfelice, Marco Renna, Raúl Angulo, Jose Enrique Fernandez, and Ed Dukeshire), there is good reason to think she will move on to yet another new form soon enough, one that could very well usher in her greatest era yet with the rise of BOOM! Studios’ very own Mystic Mother.Rather than simply setting Rita Repulsa up to be a generic villain, the comics humanized her in genuinely tragic fashion, setting her up to become a villain through rote abuse and cruelty instead of some generic inclination towards evil. As seen in the pages of 2021’s Power Rangers Unlimited: Edge of Darkness #1 by (Frank Gogol, Simone Ragazzoni, Igor Monti, Sabrina Del Grosso, and Ed Dukeshire), the Rita of the comics is the daughter of Master Vile, not unlike her small screen counterpart. Where the former’s life diverges is with that relationship itself. More specifically, the lies and betrayal it was built upon.
