Warning: contains a preview of Mighty Morphin #16!
The Eltarian War is slowly but swiftly nearing an end, but first Zordon must lead his Power Rangers into battle. But this time, it won't be as a leader giving orders from the Command Center, but actually leading the charge in person for Mighty Morphin #16. The latest issue of the series serves as the penultimate chapter in the Eltarian War.
The Eltarian War has been an ongoing saga ever since it was first teased at the very beginning of the series, which since the first issue has offered flashbacks of a young Zordon on Eltar, showcasing his evolution from inexperienced soldier to Chief Guardian of Eltar. Things culminate not only in Lord Zedd — whose secret origin story reveals Zedd to be Zordon's former Eltarian ally, Zophram - leading a city-wide onslaught on Angel Grove, but the Guardians of Eltar themselves invading the planet. The final blow to Zordon becomes literal once another former friend, Zartus, strikes at his energy tube. If not for Blue Ranger Billy quickly finding another way to contain his energy, Zordon would have died.
