Disclaimer: Power rangers is not mine. Thank god, or I'd have to settle on one particular canon of events.

Mighty Morphin'

The Mighty Morphin' team is like no other.

They feel this, every time they get together, every time they run into a new face or a new uniform. These new generations always seem so young, so confident. So much like them in the old days, and yet nothing like them at all.

None of these kids were there when power rangers was a new and unfamiliar concept, when there was no fifteen year string of victories to bolster their confidence and give them hope. None of them can remember a time when supervillains only existed in movies, or were there when they stopped being laughable and became terrifyingly real. None of them have had the world had rested on them and them alone, with no retired heroes ready to leap in and catch them should they stumble.

It's an old complaint. Every generation says the new one doesn't know how good they have it. But that doesn't make it less true.

The Mighty Morphin' team is like no other. They were the first.
