The Origin of Skeletor Exclusive Preview


Writer Joshua Hale Fialkov spoke to USA Today about his powerful new origin for the villain who has been a thorn in He-Man's side for 30 years now. It sounds as if this new story might cast Skeletor is a slightly more sympathetic light, as he reacts to the injustices of Eternian society..

"It's a really human reaction. It's inside all of us — it's that feeling of 'That's not fair' that we all feel and go through. Skeletor is now tied much more directly to He-Man's origin, locking the two of them in an eternal struggle for a reason. Skeletor thinks he should be the king, and not only does he have the king who (ticks) him off but he has this kid who's going to become king and, by the way, has this magic sword that should be his. That's a telling story."
