It was great as a kid but yes rewatching some of it now really demonstrates it targeted very young kids.

LOve Skeletor to this day from the 80's toon. Far better than Hordak.

Yeah. I was never into Hordak. But that may only be because I thought She-ra sucked ass.

I liked Hordak he was my second fave but no one came close to Alan Oppenheimers Skeletor.

It is canon to wildstorm though.

Never said otherwise. Majestic got punked by a reality-warper's idea of Superman. I'd expect the same with most 14-year-old Superman fans if they had the power to do so. srug

That's just your opinion. You'll be surprised how many majestic or thor fans are out there.

We're from the internet, and frequent fan boards. Neither of our personal opinions count for much. I'm talking about sales, notoriety, etc. My mom knows Thor. Knew him before the movies, and not just because her son's a nerd. My nephew is the next generation comics will be pandering to. He's 5. He already has a plastic Mjolnir. Point is, I doubt I'd be surprised at all.

Not exactly. You'd be wrong then. Its a central theme of his character since golden age. He is a measure of strength long before He-man was little else than a concept. I don't know about that. Pr is too modest about superman's capabilities.

Superman is a symbol, he's a character. What he actually stands for is about so much more than just his power set. Is he really just a buff boyscout to you? I understand what you're saying, but it wouldn't undermine anything to have someone beat him, or even be stronger than him. He has been beaten before, plenty of times. It's rare, especially in strength, but if that's what you care about with him, you're missing the point.

She sucked something. In my dreams.

Wait, I was a kid. I'm lying.

I feel dirty.

😐

Superman losing to He-Man wouldn't undermine the character, imo. Superman's shtick is that he's the strong/powerful guy of his company, so if it's a test of strength, then He-Man probably shouldn't win (a stalemate would be fine though). With some element of magic involved, it would probably be more easily excused. Or even have them fight more than once, and have each one pull wins from the other to even it up.

And anyone who seriously thinks I downplay Superman is going to get a rude awakening if they read the submissions I'm making to the writing tournament when they're put up.

Given He-Man's power source I don't think him being able to match or beat Superman should be scene as a negative. He's like PC Captain Marvel sans flight, but with a bad ass pet Sabre-tooth Tiger-Dragon and magic sword.

I have always felt like He Man is stronger than Superman, personally.

Nobody read this? It was decent. Nice to see Black Alice working for Skeletor. And cool to see John Constatine in the story.


The art looks great. Might have to pick this up.

when He Man matches him.

Well, that was definitely worthy of an understatement of the year award.

Old news. 😛

Also, that didn't end up being the real Superman, unfortunately.

Magic + Adam's strength + Sword of Power = a not implausible outcome if that were to happen. But yeah, not canon for Big Blue.
