Dark Specter's Revenge is the twenty-ninth & thirtieth episode of Power Rangers In Space. This marks the first appearance of Zhane's zord, the Mega Winger as well as the Winged Mega Voyager, Cyborg Ecliptor & Cyborg Astronema.

Synopsis

Dark Specter wants Astronema back, and to accomplish this, he sends an asteroid on a collision course with Earth. Astronema sneaks aboard the Dark Fortress to divert the asteroid's course, but she is captured and reverted to being evil, while a returning Zhane assists the Power Rangers in destroying the asteroid with a new Zord.

Zords

Notes

• Karone being made an honorary Ranger unintentionally foreshadows her becoming the second Pink Galaxy Ranger next season.
• Bulk and Skull, along with Professor Phenomenus (last seen in "Always a Chance") appear in both parts, and are seen next in "Ghosts in the Machine".
• Karone's character in this episode (specifically, her being brainwashed through cybernetic implants to revert her to Astronema) is very similar to Tenaya's in Beyond a Doubt.
• This episode marks the return of Zhane since in Zhane's Destiny.
• Entirely original footage is used for the sequence where the Megazords push the asteroid away from Earth.
• Justin Nimmo (Zhane) does not appear in Part I.

Errors

• For some reason the Rangers didn't try using the Megazords to stop the asteroid before sacrificing Karone.
• During the attempt to move the asteroid, Andros is shown in the Astro Megazord's cockpit when he was actually piloting the Mega Voyager.
• Unusually there is a payphone in the middle of the desert.
• The shuttle is missing in the Megaship during the first scene.
