Power Rangers: Beyond the Grid, and Finding Meaning in Challenging Times

In this Quick Take, we're re-evaluating "Beyond the Grid", a divisive Power Rangers comic arc by Marguerite Bennett and Simone Di Meo. An example of challenging art, it's also surprisingly relevant to these "unprecedented/troubling/challenging times" you're always hearing about now -- and might be extra rewarding if you're willing to give it a second look.

What is Second Chance?
Second Chance looks at media, concepts, and characters that have been deemed bad, disappointing, or divisive in some way by critics or the general public -- and tries to dig into the positives through academic and analytical (and entertaining!) video essays. Whether it’s a misunderstood masterpiece, a case of good intent vs. poor execution, or it poses useful insights on our culture as a whole, we'll figure out why and how it might actually be GOOD. So let’s dive in with an open mind, have fun, and give some of our old punching bags another shot!
