Released 6/5/2024
Sage finally morphs—but the cost is deeper than anyone expects. Written by Maria Ingrande Mora with art by Jo Mi-Gyeong, this issue marks a turning point in the series as Dark Specter’s corruption reaches the academy and Sage must embrace her Ranger identity to protect her friends.
The story centers on Sage’s emotional breakthrough: after hiding her morphing ability and fearing she might be evil, she finally transforms into the Green Ranger during a life-or-death battle alongside Tula, the Red Ranger. Their fight against Dark Specter’s forces is intense and kinetic, with Jo Mi-Gyeong’s art capturing the urgency and movement of the scene. Meanwhile, Sage’s confession to Lindy—that she lied about her powers out of fear—adds emotional depth and reinforces the theme of trust among cadets.
But the transformation isn’t just a victory. It’s tied to a shadowy part of the academy’s past, and the consequences ripple beyond Sage herself—affecting someone readers may not expect. The issue blends action, character growth, and mystery, continuing the series’ slow build toward a larger confrontation with cosmic stakes.
