Icon-boomThis article is about a/an Ranger in the Power Rangers comic sub-franchise by Boom! Studios.

Kimberly Ann Hart is the first Pink Ranger of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers in the alternate universe series, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Return. She is the wife of Tommy Oliver and the mother of Olivia Hart.

After her time as a Ranger, she moved to Canada under the name Emma Phillips to get a fresh start. Following Tommy's return from the Morphin Grid, Kimberly stepped down as the Pink Ranger and gave her Pterodactyl Power Coin to Olivia.

History[]

Kimberly's early history closely follows the TV series. Jason, Trini, and Zack went to the Peace Conference in Switzerland. But instead of transferring their powers and leaving the team like in the main timeline, they stay on and use teleportation to come to Angel Grove when they are needed. All six Rangers graduate from Angel Grove High. In addition, Kim never left for the Pan Global Games either.

The other Rangers attended Tommy and Kimberly's wedding in 2000 and the duo work together at the Angel Grove Youth Center teaching kids Karate and gymnastics. After a year of planning, Rita and Zedd launched an attack in Serpentera on the Command Center and completely destroyed it, killing Zordon and Alpha 5 in the process. A traumatized Kimberly cries as Trini wonders what they should do…Tommy suggests that they take the fight to Rita and Zedd on the Moon in retaliation for the death of their allies, intending on ending the two villains once and for all. Comicicon COMIC STORY- MMPR 30th Anniversary Special

Jason leads a diversionary Zord attack on the Moon with Billy, Trini, and Zack while Tommy and Kimberly infiltrates the Moon Palace and prepares the Benevolator, a device that the Rangers made filled with Morphin Grid Energy that would theoretically incapacitate the enemy of all evil by releasing a wave of purification. Rita stumbles upon the Rangers in her bedroom and the Benevolator gets damaged in the battle.

Outside, Jason is facing Goldar in his Zord and ordering his team to hold the line as they need to keep stalling the enemy army until the device is activated. Lord Zedd revels in watching the final battle against the Power Rangers, but is concerned that his wife has not returned yet, ordering Finster to go find her.

Just as Rita is about to kill Tommy, powering up her wand with a huge amount of energy, an arrow fired by Kimberly pierced her heart, killing her. They contact Jason about the damaged Benevolator who is struggling to hold their positions outside as Goldar is smacking them around. Billy says that there is a fail safe detonator that activates the Benevolator in ten seconds.

Billy adds that there is something he forgot to mention, the Benevolator’s power is proportional to the amount of dark energy it comes in contact with. Unfortunately, with all the new monsters that have been spawned, he calculates that the force of energy released will set off an explosion that will make a huge hole in the Moon the size of Angel Grove. Jason says there is no other way as their Zords are taking heavy damage and they are about to be overwhelmed.

Kimberly is crying, refusing to leave her husband, but he reminds her that she promised him if things got bad she would bail out. He tells her that he loves her and gives her one last kiss as Jason shouts over the comms that they need to detonate now as the Zords are failing, ordering Billy, Zack and Trini to bail out as their Zords get ripped apart by the enemy forces, with all four of them teleporting out just in time. Lord Zedd relishes in victory, only for the last thing he would ever hear being Squatt rushing in and giving him the tragic news that his wife is dead as the Benevolator detonated.

The Rangers teleported back to Earth and watch the lunar explosion from the ruins of the Command Center, they at first celebrated except for Kimberly who is horrified and in tears. They then realized that Tommy isn’t with them as Trini goes to comfort her best friend over the death of her husband as Kimberly starts to grieve. Instead of blowing a hole on the Moon’s surface, the Benevolator’s explosion blew off a large chunk off of the Moon. Comicicon COMIC STORY- MMPR: The Return #2

Following their final battle with Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd on the Moon, the team disbanded and swore to never morph again. Kimberly changed her name and moved to Canada to get a fresh start. Comicicon COMIC STORY- MMPR: The Return #1

This fresh start included shutting herself away from her old friends and refusing to contact them. Her former teammates did not hear from her for years until she heard the news that Trini Kwan had died from cancer. She boarded a plane at the airport for Angel Grove, California to attend to the memorial service under her new name Emma Phillips. Comicicon COMIC STORY- MMPR 30th Anniversary Special

Once there, she witnessed the emotional speech by Billy, who dedicated the opening of the Trini Kwan Memorial Park and Youth Center in Trini’s honor as she was Angel Grove’s longest serving mayor amongst many other accomplishments and the people of the Angel Grove were mourning her death. Kimberly left the crowd when Zack came up to speak, with his fans celebrating the publicly known Power Ranger’s appearance rather than paying attention to the memorial service despite him saying that today was not about him but about his friend Trini. Zack noticed that Kimberly was in the audience leaving but decided to give a speech first. Kimberly went inside the Center and looked at old photographs of her best friend and reminisced when they were kids, missing her late friend all the while.

After finishing looking around the Youth Center, Kimberly went to her husband’s grave to place a bouquet of flowers. Comicicon COMIC STORY- MMPR: The Return #1

MMPR The Return 3 Rangers Forcefield

Billy, Jason, Kimberly, and Zack trapped in Selena's forcefield on the Moon.

Selena Repulsa, the daughter of Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd, disguises herself as Trini's relative to gain access to her Power Coin and Power Morpher in her safety deposit box. She captures Jason, Zack, Billy, and Kimberly along with their Morphers and takes them prisoner on the Moon. Selena reveals her true identity and her plan to use the Morphin-Matic, an upgraded version of the Monster-Matic machine using Lord Zedd's Z Staff, the Rangers' Power Coins, and the last of Finster's magic clay, to bring her mother back.

A surviving Finster activated the Morphin-Matic, but the machine soon went dead. Wondering why it didn't work, Kimberly revealed that Selena only had 5 Power Coins as there were 6 Rangers. Selena scoffed and said that Tommy's Power Coin was destroyed as she had the Putties search for it and never found it. Kimberly said that Tommy wasn't morphed when he activated the Benevolator to which Finster told Selena she was telling the truth. Just then, Finster's sensors went off revealing that the Dragon Power Coin was coming to them. Selena pulled Kimberly out of the forcefield demanding to know where it is as a female Green Ranger teleports in front of the Rangers: Olivia Hart, Kimberly's daughter.

Personality[]

Like her main universe incarnations, Kim was fierce, clever in a fight, witty, and tenacious. These traits took a backseat, however, in the wake of her husband's death and her experiences since then, contending with both PTSD and motherhood. Kim eventually developed a bleak outlook on being a Ranger, considering that the idea of Rangers ever being needed again to be the worst possible scenario, as such dire situations took Tommy from her and left their daughter without her father. Kimberly's determination to escape the ghosts of her past were evident, due to the lengths she went to in order to build a new life for herself and her daughter Olivia. However, she still held a fond place for her friends and former teammates, as she told her daughter stories about them despite never allowing them to even know of her child's existence, displaying how traumatized the final battle and loss of Tommy had left her.
