![]() ![]() The comments about everything Master Vile has done not only to her but also to her brother Rito just to fulfill finding Dark Specter’s perfect vessel made Rita’s case even stronger. All of Rita’s history felt like it culminated at this moment when she was completely done working for Master Vile. The relationship between Rita and Master Vile makes great use of how we’ve seen the Power Rangers comics develop Rita’s backstory. It’s things like this that are very much appreciated because while we know that BOOM! Studios Power Rangers has diverged into its own universe we have these ties that honor the show. Here we see what appears to be the first meeting between Rita and Divatox that builds that connection. Back in Power Rangers Turbo, there was a scene with Divatox and Rita that did paint them to be on at least contact terms. This all is made to work within the mythology of the Power Rangers since we know that as Rita she had some relationship with them. ![]() Not only do we get Master Vile but also see Divatox, Darkonda, Dark Specter, and Alpha-1 return. There are moments throughout Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #104 that will hit with fans, especially of the Zordon Era. What made this all work was how Flores uses the mythology of Power Rangers to connect everything. With how much damage Rita as Mistress Vile has already done it was refreshing that Melissa Flores took the time to provide a deep dive into all that’s gone on in the Recharged direction thus far. Mistress Vile and Alpha-1 then go to Planet Bizerk to recover Vessel from where it is locked in ice.īack in the present Matthew Cook is unable to fight off Mistress Vile’s torture as he is shown falling closer to darkness. Dark Specter agrees and provides Rita with a portion of his power to complete her transformation into Mistress Vile. Rita then offers to be Dark Specter’s new general and obtain the Zeo Crystals for him. Mistress Vile goes over her history as Rita Repulsa in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #104. Rita then removes the memories of the fight and Dark Specter from Master Vile’s mind. With Alpha-1’s help, Rita defeats her father in a fight. On Planet Infernus Dark Specter calls out Master Vile for thinking a centuries-old robot would be a proper vessel for his power. When Rita is brought to her father Master Vile reveals he will offer Alpha-1 as the new vessel for Dark Specter. Mistress Vile then recollects when she was still Rita Repulsa she was found and freed by Divatox, who was hired by Master Vile to bring him back his daughter. CREATIVE TEAMĪrtists: Kath Lobo and Simona Di Gianfelice That is where Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #104 comes in as it teases revealing what happened to Rita since we last saw her before returning as Mistress Vile. The question is how she not only escaped the cosmic dumpster but gained this sudden power upgrade. We’ve never seen a Rita this powerful as she has reached a whole new level that made even Lord Zedd look like a child playing with a toy. The Rangers’ most persistent foe isn’t all bad, though she’s cooperated with Zordon and the Rangers when the stakes were high enough, and she eventually turns away from evil toward the light, becoming the Mystic Mother.Things have certainly escalated with Rita Repulsa returning as Mistress Vile to cause all sorts of chaos to not only the Power Rangers but also Lord Zedd. From her lunar base, the Moon Palace, Rita surveils the planet and hatches schemes with Lord Zedd, her partner in villainy and romance. Earth has stood in the way of her goal for millennia, thanks to Zordon and the Rangers. Rita Repulsa is a fearsome master of magic bent on conquering the universe. ![]()
