Power Rangers is pretty much perfect as it already is, but if there was one single flaw in the entire franchise, I think we can all agree that it would be the fact that the show is very rarely a deep psychological drama. I mean, there's that one episode of Ninja Storm where we see the Red Ranger huddling naked in a room full of eyes as part of a dream sequence, and there are Dr. K's flashbacks in RPM, but other than that, you never really get to see the harrowing effects of being brainwashed by a Moon Witch.

Well buckle the heck up, Sigmund, because when next week's Power Rangers hits, we're getting to see what it's like in Tommy's dreams, and it is weird. Like, "my mother is actually Rita and she's the only one who loves me" weird. Check out a preview below!

See? I wasn't exaggerating. And just for the record, I wasn't exaggerating about that episode of Ninja Storm, either:

Seriously, I stopped making things up about this show about halfway through Turbo.

Here's the full solicitation for Power Rangers #5, out next week, and the fact that it emphasizes a Dragonzord attack rather than Tommy getting all reverse-Oedipal on us is pretty darn surprising:
