Michael[1] "Mike" Corbett was a soldier of Terra Venture. Though he was one who pulled the Quasar Saber containing the Red Galaxy Ranger powers, an ensuing battle forced him to hand the saber to his younger brother as he fell into an abyss to his assumed death. However, he is later revived and became the second Magna Defender after the original Magna Defender sacrificed his life to save Terra Venture. During his participation in Shattered Grid and Beyond the Grid, Mike was recruited by Grace Sterling as a part of the Promethea Rangers, to save the Rangers Lord Drakkon had captured. He later becomes (temporary) the Black Solar Ranger of the new Solar Rangers team in order to win the fight against the corrupted Morphing Master Praetor and his Crimson Raiders, in the dimension known as the "Void".
