50th Anniversary 'Ultraman' Marathon Airing This Sunday
The official position of ComicsAlliance --- or at least of our senior writer --- is that no matter how much tokusatsu you have in your life, you could always use a little more. I mean, think about it. Have you ever been in a situation that couldn't have been improved if a giant hero showed up and started shooting laser beams at a monster? Fortunately, we're all getting the chance to put a little bit more of the Specium Beam in our lives. This month marks the 50th anniversary of the Japanese debut of Ultraman, and to mark the occasion, Shout Factory TV is doing a marathon of episodes, streaming for free at ShoutFactoryTV.com.

With 800 episodes over the course of 22 years, the Power Rangers television show is arguably the single most successful live-action superhero franchise of all time, and certainly one of the strangest. Adapted from Japan's long-running Super Sentai series, created by manga legend Shotaro Ishinomori, the Power Rangers combined the giant robots and monsters of their Japanese counterpart with a completely different set of secret identities and problems, and became a pop cultural phenomenon. That's why we're looking back with an in-depth guide to Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, including its source material, Kyuoryu Sentai Zyuranger, in ComicsAlliance's Ranger Station! This week, Ernie's about to go out of business and Jason finds a dog. Also, I think there's a monster and a robot in there somewhere.
