Ultimately, I never understood why He-Man and his pals / foes were "Masters of the Universe." They mainly hung out on Eternia. Good guys had feet, bad guys had claw feet. And the guys I had, the first guys, all had rubber head that popped off and made for good finger puppets. I think they may have been Masters of Lame.

Artwork is nice, but the cross hatching is overdone for my tastes.

He-Man is such a great GAY icon :P lol

I'm a little drunk right now, and still pondering over what the hell "He-Man" was about. Let's start with the iconography: very blonde, aryan, muscular dude wearing some sort of bondage shirt with an iron cross on it. Gay nazis, anyone?

I love the new action figures from Mattel, so I think I will give this a try!

Am I the only one that would like to see a more Warrior-like attire for He-Man? maybe some armor or pants for that matter?

Why is he called "HE-Man"?

That's like calling a rabbit "Bunny-Hare" or a calling a prostitute "Hooker-Whore".

You gotta check out my blog, it's rather topical, given this article and comments:

@AtomicChipmunk I was hoping someone would post that video. It's the only reason I read this article!

I wonder if they'll try for a fourth cartoon if the comic takes off.

Maybe even another video game, this time where Evil Lyn is an enemy you can fight against, unlike for the one that came out for the Game Boy in the early aughts!

Simonsonrules, He-Man and his friends were 'Masters of the Universe', but not his foes.

Does James Robinson have a gambling debt he needs to pay off?

@TheOmegaOne. I second that. A new warrior outfit would be nice. It looks like He-Man has a Gigantic BUSH and dyes his head blonde...
