Black Ranger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Black Ranger is a designation given to several Power Rangers characters. In the Sentai version of the show, the Black Ranger usually serves as second in command, which is a position taken by the Blue Ranger or Green Ranger if there isn't one on the team. Black Rangers are often part of the core Ranger team. When the Black Ranger is not in the core five Rangers, this position is usually taken by a Green Ranger. Like the Green Ranger, there has never been a female Black Ranger.
