Power Rangers is best when it leads with heart and backs it up with stylish action, and luckily "Necessary Evil" has both in spades. Read Full Review

"Necessary Evil" has been a unique story arc amongst a wonderful tapestry that has been created within this series. It's rare to see proper growth and evolution within a comic book series, but this book has beautifully matured while still maintaining that feeling of joy we all had when we were children.  Read Full Review

The awesome climax that has been building for months lives up to the energy and hype. Great use of the characters and the history. Read Full Review

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #50deftly brings the "Necessary Evil" storyline to a close while setting up future stories in the Power Rangers universe. After four years, this series still manages to capture the spirit of the television show while deepening the mythology. That is a testament to the creators involved, and I hope it continues to be the standard going forward. Read Full Review

Not a bad conclusion. Could've been better, but could've also been worse. What I like about these comics are that they're so much more well-written than the show ever was. That's why I have hope they'll still be good, despite the fact we're approaching the point where the series went downhill. Like I said, at least these comics tell more exciting stories than stuff like half of the Rangers getting trapped in a storybook (One of the Dumbest episodes in the entire MMPR series). I hope we see Dayne try to get revenge for his defeat one day. He shows promise as an enemy, and I doubt we've seen all he's capable of. As for that "Big spoiler alert" ending, was ANYONE out there really surprised who "(Spoiler)" was? That's as surprising as Dr. Doo m returning to battle the Fantastic Four. As long as the comics stay 500 times better than the show was at this point, I plan to keep reading it. more

The post-Shattered Grid storyline was doing pretty good and the finale had me curious and excited but unfortunatelly not only does "Necessary evil" fails to live up to its name but all the various plotlines had a lackluster and unsatisfactory conclusion Avoiding spoilers Im just going to simply mention my issues with the story: 1) the battle of the MMPR vs Dayne was resolved in a very dumb way and a villain that was shown to be a formidable foe was easily dispatched 2) the battle of the Omega Rangers vs the Anointed ended very quicly thanks to the help of the Solar Rangers (nice way to spoil your own story with the cover BOOM) which seems like lazy wrting to me since it would have been much better if they appeared AFTER the fight jus t to lend a hand with the finnishing touches instead of arriving mid battle and practically ending the fight when it was at its most desperate/thrilling point 3) If the problem with the Morphin Grid giving power to random people was as easy to resolve as simply bringing the Solar Rangers (which I really dont like or care much about since they were introduced in a mediocre story), why didnt the Emissary do that from the beginnig? I see no purpose in creating the Omega Rangers and makes even less sense when he was only going to recruir Jason 4) Now that their mission is done what are the Omega Rangers going to do? staying at Safeheaven and taking care of the poeple seems very trivial and once again lazy writing. I hope we keep seeing them in the enxt story 5) The reveal at the last page of the mysterious character who would appear was very exagerated by BOOM, I think everybody knew who was it going to be and besides, it didnt do a great job of making me excited fo whats next. Hope the FCBD issue and the new series does a better job 6) I thought the title implied there was going to be some philosophical analysis for why evil is necessary to exist but we got nothing of that. I thought they had great opportunities to delve into this in both GGPW and MMPR issues where the rangers sometimes pondered about their futures once they´re no longer rangers thanks to there being no evil guys around or maybe at the final battle they could´ve considered themselves the bad guys...but nothing but wasted potential more
