Born to the Queen of Magitopia amidst great celebration, the destiny of Rita Repulsa would be determined by a bitter battle for custody between the noble ruler and her former husband: now known as Master Vile. Raised in the ways of evil by her father and his new wife, Rita would leave the tedium of the M-51 Galaxy and seek to conquer her own domain.

In a campaign that led to the conquest and destruction of countless worlds, Rita was drawn to the service of Lord Zedd and thrown into conflict with her greatest enemy: Zordon. After centuries of war, her forces were defeated and Rita was imprisoned. Many felt that would be the end of her tale. They were wrong!

Ten thousand years later, while exploring a rogue planetoid, a team of astronauts accidentally stumble upon her prison and release her in a moment of greed... release her.

And to combat such a threat, the now disembodied Zordon assembled a team of superheroes to protect their world...
