As a kid it was all about He-Man & The Masters Of The Universe. Cartoon, toys, bed sheets..you name it. I've remained a big fan, but aside from a decent revamped animated series a few years ago there hasn't been too much for fans to get exited about. But if and when they finally do get around to that new live action outing, they could do worse than take some influence from Rosario's work here. A few good guys sneak in (Ram-Man, Fisto, a pretty scary take on Orko) but it's pretty much all about the villains. He also gives us a look at his takes on Snake Mountain and Castle Greyskull..

No He-Man, Skeletor, Teela etc..seems to have focused on the more obscure characters.

Orko WISHES he was that hardcore! Shit...I wish Orko was that hardcore in the old cartoon; it would have made watching more tolerable.

Good stuff! Hopefully the new He-Man movie will look something like this... Please no more realistic takes on our heroes!

They should definitely include Fisto in the XXX parody ;)

that is one of the only times Merman hasn't looked ridiculous.

HOLY SHIT! This looks awesome as hell!8)

When they make the movie i really hope too that they take some inspiration from these pics.

SOMEBODY PLEASE MAKE THE MOVIE NOW!
Chris Hemsworth, Alex Pettyfer or maybe Charlie Hunnam as Prince Adam. Hunnam and Hemsworth could play He-Man too.

If they include Orko in the movie he should look little bit like that.

Awesome art! Absolutely amazing! Definitely need to have this inspire the live action film if it ever happens.

Orcos face looks like the gremlin from the 80's twilight zone movie.

I actually think the best one is Tri-klops. Clawful and Whiplash seem be tryin a bit too hard. Fisto is cool too. Bit too Hellboy though.

These are so good. Beast-man looks the best. Some designs stray just a tad too far from original designs, but overall the artists style really shines thru in each piece

The work is excellent quality.

Castle Greyskull is amazing and if I ever travel any where near a Snake Mountain looking like that, I would certainly tread carefully. lol

He drew Fisto. Huh, huh, huh...

These are awesome, I'm digging the Orko one the most. But I wish they would have included He-Man and Skeletor, I bet those would have looked sick.

Actually i think .....eric skarsguard, sawyer from lost would make a great he-man..... or have a price adam with a cgi transferance and make he-man totally cgi....with a different actor voice over ...if brad pitt wasnt so short ...his troy movie look was close ....u could even use the voice actor from the last cartoon and have a young actor play prince adam .....its working for ghost rider and hulk
