The prelude was unlocked as the $625,000 stretch goal. The information will be made known as the year goes on. With two hours to go as of writing, the campaign sits at $661,020 raised. It isn’t mentioned whether this prelude is also, as the series it leads into is, co-written by her boyfriend, director Matt Hotson. Johnson is of course best known as Kimberly Hart, the original Pink Ranger for all but eight episodes of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, to which she last returned to the role in Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie. She made a cameo in the reboot film Power Rangers as a civilian onlooker, her most recent appearance in the franchise. She would go on to be a series regular in Felicity and Flashpoint while starring in Susie Q and Perfect Body. She turned to directing about a decade ago when she also started making convention appearances. She’s also started directing television, with an episode of Superman & Lois.

Johnson is incredibly excited to reflect back on her time as a Ranger, calling this comic book series a love letter to her fans and the franchise that gave her her start.
