Dark Rangers
From Power Rangers Universe
[edit] History
Justin, Hilary, Zane, and Tina (the blue dark ranger has not been named) were the newest bullies of Angel Grove High. As they ran into Tommy, Billy, and Zack, the rangers were warned of their newest threats. They thought Angel Grove belonged to them, and that was the special reason that Lord Zedd chose them to be his Dark Rangers. They met up with Jason, Kimberly, Billy, and Zack at the beach. Before they could fight each other, Zedd beamed the bullies to the Otherworld.
Soon after the Green Crystal was filled, the gang finally became the Dark Rangers (the uniforms are just colored putty suits). The Power Rangers tried to tell them the truth about what Zedd would do, but the Dark Rangers didn't listen.
After the Green Ranger destroyed the crystal, their powers were gone and so were the Dark Rangers. When they transported back to Angel Grove they made peace with the Power Rangers and became their friends.
[edit] Comics
In winter of 1995, Marvel Comics released their third issue of their Ninja Rangers comic series. In this issue, Lord Zedd had been seeking to gain control of the Thunderzords. When he was unable to locate the Tigerzord, he found it was time to recruit a new team of Dark Rangers. Unfortunately, Angel Grove's talent pool was too small for him, so he chose five teens from around the world to take on the role of his Dark Rangers:Osamu Tezuka from Japan, Fara Jukwa from Zimbabwe, Stanford Winner from the United States, Nelinda Valensisi from Columbia, and Marie Claire le Monde from France. Their morphed forms resembled the good rangers' original morphed form under the Dino Coins. Following Zedd's orders, they called on the Thunder Megazord and went to the Ninja Rangers' location, forcing them to call the Ninja Megazord and Falconzord. When the rangers were about to form the Ninja Megafalconzord, the Tigerzord showed up at the scene of the battle. However, once the Ninja Megafalconzord was formed, the Tigerzord took off with the Thunder Megazord, ending the issue. It was never revealed who the pilot of the Tigerzord was, or if it even had a pilot at all.
