She-Ra Vs Angela

Started by cdtm3 pages

Indeed.

This is basically a stealth continuation/ending to the 2002 cartoon, Hiss follows Skeletor, and was in turn meant to be overthrown by Hordak, leading back to Skeletor.

While the He-Man/Thundercats was more an end to the '80's cartoon.

Is your sister blonde? 🙂

Here's how much power Hordak had:

World's exploding, from the shockwaves alone.

She-Ra has a mammoth feat here.

The "Grayskull" Hordak versus She-Ra encounter reminds me of a game called Soul Calibur (a play on "EXcalibur" of Arthurian legend) ...

I'll help out in your quest to inform us about the current Masters of the Universe.

In case someone was wondering about what a "Horokoth" was, this is what Teela reveals before showing Adam that "Future" vision where his sister ends him ...

The origin of Skeletor's havoc staff:

It's his own damned head.

He's already a skinless guy with a floating head. 🙂

It's like the Finn Sword. There's a cycle of Skeletor going back in time, kidnapping Adora, raising her, rebelling, and dying. And Hordak has to ensure this keeps happening.

Only, this time, Skeletor doesn't do that. He never goes back, yet Adora is still here, so he breaks time and fate, and becomes "Master of Death".

mmm

I suppose you're right.

I started to put "This is definitely not your father's MOTU ...",
but then I started to think of how many horror elements are actually contained in the original Masters of the Universe series.

This series just makes more blatant what was already there.

Sort of like the Star Wars series and the 1st 6 movies, where people rate the 1st as arguably the most "fun" and "Happy Go Lucky" installment, especially compared to the darker 2nd and 6th films.
Then you think about what the active station the Rebels destroyed actually DID before it was destroyed, and realize more people died in that first film than in all 5 subsequent movies combined.

At any rate, moving past the one-eyed symbolism on the cover, as well as the skull and bones, and the "I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven" motif intrinsic to the transformation sequence of He-Man and She-ra (I wonder far less now why many Christian parents were bothered by this show than I used to),

I'll go on and post a point in She-Ra's favor, by giving another demonstration of what her sword can do, which is envelop herself and an ally, and presumably allies plural if the area is not too great, in a protective envelope ...

Those are also semi-tangible wraiths, who she couldn't hurt with direct sword attacks because she passed right through them, yet they could attack her.. Sort of like Prince of Orphans John Aman.

I'm starting to wonder if the DC staff members writing this weren't let go by Filmation early in their careers or something. He-Man is leader of the Serpent Men now?!? Seriously?

Worser and worser still ...

I found the scene before what you were referencing on the following page:

Another reason worth posting.

Look at Beast Man's cloak.

Look carefully.

🙁

Shame upon shame piled ...

Th-They killed Tigger!

The scans posted by Cdtm changed my thinking from
"Comic-book She-ra has absolutely NO chance of winning this"
to
"This might be a straight 50/50".

Problem was, and remains, Angela's speed, which even She-ra's best showings imply will be a problem. Are we really to believe a woman who, after reluctantly slaying her brother, cannot effectively outrace a flowing puddle of water, will be able to take a strong and skilled warrior with reactions and speed so great that opponents who are faster than thought cannot overcome her?

With inherent damage soak great enough to endure impaling, and a carried weapon capable of instantly healing such damage, however, She-Ra just might survive, especially if, unknown at the moment, Angela does not mechanically go for kills but engages her opponents formally, as her brother and most Asgardians seem won't to.

One other consideration, IF the sword She-Ra carries possesses one other power her brother's displayed:

From the looks of it, She-Ra might face off against Injustice Wonder Woman.

Unfortunately, I think you may be confusing Teela for She-Ra.

She-Ra versus Wonder Woman WOULD be cool, though, and establish Adora as a fighting force against an opponent that a majority of fans would agree would give Angela fits.

Speed is the lone reason I think Angela edges out this contest.
If anyone can convince me She-Ra has a legitimate counter to Angela's speed and/or can match said speed, Adora would get the nod.

I'll keep my word by giving the last of what I'd gathered for discussion last week over the next few posts, a collection of about 20 scans:

Does Angela have super speed?

I don't remember the Spawn version being a speedster.
