History[]
Welcome to Time Force Academy[]
Eddie was an enthusiastic cadet at Time Force Academy who was excited to meet Professor Scotts, asking her multiple questions about her time as a Ranger and her battles with Ransik when the academy was attacked.
Together with Jack, a Time Force officer, and fellow students Marv, Chloe and Vesper, Eddie tried to learn who was attacking the academy and why. After the attackers stole a time ship and escaped, Jen Scotts entrusted Eddie and the others with their own time ship and Morphers to pursue them.
TV STORY-Welcome to Time Force Academy
Shattered Grid[]
The HyperForce Rangers detected an energy surge passing through the Hyperstream to an unknown world. They followed to investigate and arrived at an alternate Newtech City where they were drawn into a three-way conflict between Scorpina, the Coinless and Finster 5 until the arrival of Lord Drakkon. TV STORY-Shattered Grid Part 1 (HyperForce)
Upon learning that Scorpina intended to reawaken the downed Serpentera, the team were forced into a temporary alliance with Drakkon to stop her. Unsuccessful in preventing its reactivation, the Rangers crashed the War Zord into the ocean. Receiving Zordon's call through the Morphin Grid, they traveled to the future. TV STORY-Shattered Grid Part 2 (HyperForce)
Eddie and the other HyperForce Rangers, now joined by Joe Shih, were among the numerous Rangers who rallied at the Command Center before confronting Lord Drakkon.

The HyperForce Rangers with other Rangers before they destroy Serpentera.
After receiving a Morpher upgrade from Doctor K, Eddie and the other united Rangers teleported to Lord Drakkon's dimension and engaged his Ranger Sentries. COMIC STORY- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (Boom! Studios) Issue 30 Following the repaired Serpentera's appearance on the battlefield, the HyperForce Rangers finally destroy it by combining the Chronos HyperForce Megazord with the Zords of several other Rangers and forming the Mega Megazord. The world then went white after Drakkon entered the Morphin Grid. COMIC STORY- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Shattered Grid Finale Issue 1
Eddie's timeline is later restored by the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers after they defeated Drakkon.
Enter the Green Ranger[]
Following Drakkon's defeat, Eddie and the others were returned prior to the detection of the energy surge in the Hyperstream. They had no memory of traveling to the World of the Coinless and the events that followed but still had the physical remnants of that time. The Rangers returned to 3017 and attended Joe and Nadira's wedding, after which they were joined by Joe as the new Green HyperForce Ranger in traveling to 2007 to protect the Corona Aurora from the Alliance. TV STORY-Enter The Green Ranger
The HyperForce Rangers and a collection of allies traveled to 1998 to prevent the Alliance from capturing Zordon. They were unsuccessful and chased after the escaping villains. TV STORY-Finale (Part 1)
After catching up to the Alliance's fleet in the timestream, Eddie boarded one of the ships and rescued Trip from Lokar. Unable to find Zordon, the HyperForce Rangers and the rescued Time Force Rangers returned to 3017 where they discovered giant statues of Rita, Zedd and Thrax and a completely rewritten future. Leaving the Time Force team behind, the HyperForce team departed into the past to rescue Zordon and restore the timeline. TV STORY-Season Finale

Personality[]
Eddie is an easy going and enthusiastic cadet who idolizes the Power Rangers, showing a great amount of interest when Professor Scotts did a lecture at the Academy. He is very knowledgeable on history to an extent and uses that to help his team, such as knowing what Halloween is even though by 3016 that particular holiday is no longer celebrated, though in rare cases he gets certain facts wrong like believing that costumes worn on Trick or Treat were actual skins primitive people wore on top of their bodies. Eddie is a fan of old movies from historic periods, his personal favorite being movies of the 1990s.
