Now that the Power Rangers have taken a break from fighting crime, the Red Time Force Ranger is using his well-earned off time by touring the nation to meet with fans. His latest stop will be at Turlock Comics on Saturday.

Actor Jason Faunt, who played Red Ranger Wesley Collins in the hit 2001 television series, will be at the local comic shop to take photos and sign autographs for fans at noon that day.

“I am so excited to come up to Turlock Comics in Turlock, CA… Come check it out. Look forward to meeting you all,” Faunt said in a video posted to the Turlock Comics social media channels on Monday.

Faunt shared that he will be at Turlock Comics signing and posing for fans until nobody else is left in line.

Aside from the Power Rangers series, Faunt has appeared in the films “Witchhouse,” “Totem,” “The Wrong Mr. Right,” “The Wrong Child” and “Below Deck Deceit,” as well as the shows “Battleground: The Art of War,” “All American” and “Dystopia.” He also appeared in the reality series “Honeymoon in Paradise” and voiced the character Aaron in the video game “Resident Evil: Vendetta.”

For fans who do not have anything for Faunt to sign, Turlock Comics will have merchandise such as toys, masks and comics available to purchase.

The actor will be charging $50 for an autograph. The price is $80 for an autograph and selfie combo. For those who get merchandise signed, Turlock Comics will offer Certificates of Authentication for $5.

Faunt’s appearance comes just over a month since famed Incredible Hulk actor Lou Ferrigno hosted a meet and greet at the comic book shop on March 9.

Turlock Comics is located at 2717 Geer Rd. For more information regarding the event, fans are encouraged to call (209) 620-8190.
