Power Rangers’ most iconic ‘90s villains are both returning to the TV canon in 2023, the year in which Mighty Morphin Power Rangers turns 30.
The two most iconic Power Rangers villains are both returning in 2023 in two separate projects. The Power Rangers universe turns 30 in 2023, something that will be celebrated not only with a new Power Rangers series, Cosmic Fury but also with a Mighty Morphin Power Rangers reunion. Nostalgia and references to past seasons have always been part of the Power Rangers franchise, and it will be no different in 2023.
From Mighty Morphin to Dino Fury, Power Rangers has had dozens of main antagonists – not to mention the countless Power Rangers’ “monsters of the week.” Still, just like a lot of elements from Mighty Morphin, the original Power Rangers villains are still the most recognizable ones. Fortunately, Power Rangers is revisiting its original 1990s villains on TV in 2023.
Curiously, Rita Repulsa as portrayed in the classic Power Rangers TV show no longer exists at that point in the canon. During Power Rangers in Space’s “Countdown to Destruction”, Rita’s evilness was removed from her by Zordon’s energy, meaning that Rita was pretty much redeemed by the end of the Zordon Era. Rita Repulsa would return years later in Power Rangers Mystic Force, except she was now helping the Power Rangers as the Empress of Good Magic.
Power Rangers Dino Fury Brought Lord Zedd Back Ahead Of Cosmic Fury Power Rangers Dino Fury season 1 brought Lord Zedd back to a Power Rangers TV show canon more than two decades after Zedd’s last appearance in Space’s “Countdown to Destruction”. Like Rita Repulsa, Lord Zedd had also been redeemed at the end of the Zordon Era. Still, the evil version of the second most iconic Mighty Morphin Power Rangers villain was recreated by Dino Fury’s Reaghoul.
Power Rangers Dino Fury season 2 ended with the Dino Fury Rangers going into space to look for Lord Zedd, who was responsible for the destruction of Rafkon, the home planet of Zayto, Aiyon, and future Cosmic Fury Red Ranger Amelia. Though the Rafkonians survived and found a new home, Lord Zedd remains a threat to the entire universe. Three decades after Tommy Oliver and his team faced Lord Zedd, the Emperor of Evil is once again challenging a Power Rangers team.
