Jason was truly the first Power Ranger. True, he became a Ranger the same time as all the others, but he was the one who truly wanted the weighty duty of defending Earth. He recognized his chance to make a difference in the world, and while his friends were skeptical, he was prepared to go on faith that Zordon was indeed telling the truth. For 1 1/2 seasons, Jason served as the leader of the Power Rangers. As the Red Ranger, he controlled the mighty Tyrannosaurus Dinozord and Red Dragon Thunderzord. Still, while an incredible warrior on the battlefield, he was a friendly, fun, easy-going teenager everywhere else.
