“Wait, is this journal 100% He-man now?” you may ask. No! It’s uh… just an exciting time for Masters of the Universe fans. I’ve been a mark for these characters and this universe since I was five. Some loves die hard. Today, I was delighted to find the new figures from the He-man and the […]
For those of you not keeping up with Masters of the Universe news, you might be confused as to why I’m talking about a He-man series on Netflix yet again, but this time it’s a different series! Unlike Masters of the Universe: Revelation (which I did an episode by episode look at), this series is directed […]
The Temptation of Adam As always, the spoilers will be coming fast and heavy. So be warned. Episode 5, “The Forge at the Forest of Forever,” opens with a funeral. At the end of the last episode, having entered Preternia, our motley group of heroes and villains met Prince Adam. I’d expected a long journey […]
The Green Glow of Fear Warning: Beyond This Point There Be Spoilers. “Land of the Dead” doesn’t feature the flashbacks to Skeletor and He-man’s old adventures like past episodes have.

This time, things get way more fishy. Warning: Beyond This Point There Be Spoilers. Episode 3: The Most Dangerous Man in Eternia Episode three opens with another flashback to […]
To Live and Diode in Eternia In my last journal entry, I covered episode 1 as well as some general thoughts about this new MOTU series. This time, I’ll dive straight into Episode 2. Warning: Beyond This Point There Be Spoilers. Episode 2: The Poison Chalice We’re given the first glimpse of the state of […]
Fabulous Powers & Fatal Secrets Recently, YouTube has been suggesting to me videos in which a wide variety of numbskulls mug for the camera, their faces distorted into grimaces or embarrassed faces that would make a Disney Channel actor roll their eyes. Their heads and shoulders are cut out, pasted onto a still from Masters […]
Masters of the Universe is the best! Because Digital River stinks, I’m getting mine in batches from a fellow collector. I got a batch in over the weekend, and just had a chance to open them up after visiting family. Man, I love this line! What a crazy, varied and wonderful group of characters! I […]
I was feeling a bit nostalgic, and thought it’d be fun to look back on the very first comics I remember reading as a kid. I wracked my brain (but memory’s a funny thing) to compile this list. The first time reading them is still pretty vivid, but the exact order is a little fuzzy. […]
