MOTUC Characters Death Count

[King Kahn]

We are talking killed and not dead of old age because a LOT of characters from pre-ternia would be on the dead list, not all of them, but a lot of them

[Berserker79]

In my MOTU verse nobody dies. All are fighting the eternal battle!

[Larry Waters]

-Webstor (killed by Snakemen in MYP)
-King Hiss (ate himself in MYP)

Wait, wha...?

Did I miss something?

[Darkspecter]

The Elders.

I'm actually not sure. I thought about them. In the MYP episode, when King Grayskull dies...it's like his energy/spirit turn them into "supreme beings" or something. So...*shrugs*

uhm, according to thunder punch he-man's bio, maybe king randor falls in the possibly dead category too...

 

"death" is in quotations in the bio because King Randor is still alive. Keep reading the bios. It's actually revealed Randor is alive in the first page of the first MOTUC mini-comic, which was shown off by Mattel.

TYTUS has been retconned to not being killed by Maegator.

He obviously died in the end (probably of old age) but officially Megator did not kill him, according to the updated bio!

Oh...I forgot about that. Hmmm...that's tricky because the majority of collectors probably have the death bio. I think I will leave it, but add a note.

He hasn't been brought into current canon yet, but Battle Bones was a dinosaur-like creature that died shortly after the rest of his species died out, before Skeletor's magic resurrected him somewhat.

I'll add him!

Should we add Man-e-Faces career to the list?

Ba-dump-bump!

I'll add them all as we find out who lives and who dies.

Zodak goes after King Hiss. Their final battle sees Zodak avenging his brother by hypnotizing King Hiss's other heads on his arms and around his body and making them bite the main head off of King Hiss's shoulders. The King writhes in pain, but is still sure that Serpos will soon restore him. He-Man struggles against Serpos outside Castle Grayskull until his sword splits down the middle, revealing a blade that can cut off the heads of Serpos. With two heads gone, Serpos is weak enough to be finished off.

The Elders emerge from Castle Grayskull and once again expel Serpos back to the Dark Hemisphere and turn him into stone again, trapping him as Snake Mountain. Zodak and He-Man bring the Snake Men the carcass of King Hiss. Realizing that their leader is gone and that the battle is lost, the Snake Men retreat. King Randor thanks He-Man for saving Eternia again. He-Man extends the thanks to Zodak, who has finally avenged his brother.

In the unproduced episode 40 comic, King Hiss is barely alive and Beastman takes him to Snake Mountain's prison. King Hiss cleverly gets Beastman to stick him in the cell with the Shadow Beasts in complete darkness, his head grows back and he's full power again. So...he kind of died, but came back to life like most people in comics seem to.

Webstor died in "Web of Evil." He doesn't die on screen, but I swear the MYP crew said he was dead. Here's the episode synopsis:

The morbid side of motu......

[shadowfall1976]

There's 4 fatalities just in this post alone....

Webstor did not die in MYP defeated but not dead..

When the Masters get there, they find Webstor severely beaten.

http://he-man.wikia.com/wiki/Webstor

In "Web of Evil" he is the main villain, stealing the substance Ambrosia from Buzz-Off's people, the Andreenids, to provide him with extra power and thus allowing him to spawn hundreds of deadly spiders, which he sets upon the Masters. The name of his species is given by Buzz-off in this episode calling him an Arachna, whose physiology is very similar to the Andreenids. After his Ambroisa-enriched eggs are subsequently stolen by the Snake Men, Webstor is brutally beaten by them and collapses dead on the ground, the only member of the regular cast ever to be killed off in a He-Man episode. However, his death is depicted in an ambiguous manner so that fans are led to debate over whether he is dead or unconscious, and it was only when Ian Richter of Mattel answered the fans' questions on the He-Man.org that it was confirmed that Webstor did indeed meet his end. It is possible that his death may have been deliberately shown in this uncertain manner, so that the writers could be left free to bring Webstor back if they chose to include him in future episodes. The series was canceled three episodes later, so Webstor remained dead.

[Megalodon]

Really?? A Wikipedia is your defense..Yea like those are accurate...

A Kill means as seen on screen not something that "may" have happened off screen

And Ian Richter never worked for Mattel......

[Larry Waters]

SPOILERS REMOVED!

I just re-read Episode 40...

Hssss was never dead. He was only beheaded (one of many heads) and couldn't regenerate in sunlight, therefore he wasn't at full power. Not dead, just de-powered.

[MLBfan]

Couldn't we include Beast Man in all of this?
Speaking of the unproduced #40 episode, once Hisss regenerated he bit Beast Man on his way to Skeletor's throne. If the Sorceress can't survive Hisss' bite and venom with the Power of the Universe, how would Skeletor be able to save Beast Man with his magic?

[Shadow-Ra]

Isn't Randor dead, it implies it in She-Ra's bio

[Megalodon]

Hey if your going by death's are they not all dead because there is no cartoon,comic or movie tie in?

[Darkspecter]

He was definitely dead. I found the interview where Ian Richter confirmed it:

79. loved the show and truly miss it now. but one question - Did Webstor die in the end of "Web of Evil"? and if not, were there any more plots which were going to include him more?

IR: Yes, but anything is possible.

*shrugs* I don't know. He did regenerate...but if he doesn't "die" after eating his own head...I don't think King Hiss is able to be killed then.

Good question! Someone will have to ask the MYP guys about that.

I answered that in my spoiler tag.

ZING! lol

Yea but if you see that tidbit the only reason he is "dead" is because the series was canceled if the series continued then he probably would have lived....If you look at it this way then most of the Snake Men are "dead" after they jumped into the pit around Grayskull wasn't Kobra Khan one of them? How can someone survive a fall like that and live in a bottomless gourge/pit??? He's not dead dead....

[Swanmarsh]

Too much uneccessary death in MOTUC! This should be a never-ending struggle for the power to be Masters of the Universe!

Don't think we can consider Saurod killed, more likely transported to some other dimention or prison.

I don't believe the Sorceress dies ... nor the Goddess.

I understand his answer as follows: yes, Webstor was killed, but it's possible we could have brought him back somehow if fans wanted us to. I think the Webstor scenario is very similar to The Cheetah on JLU. They intended for her to be murdered off screen because it's too violent to show on a kids show (like Webstor). The difference was, the animation studio screwed up and showed her at the end of the episode being arrested with the other villains. Fans argued she was alive, creators explained the error...but they eventually sided with the fans and brought her back to the series. Ironically, she's one of the villains that ends up surviving the rest of JLU!

Lots of stuff that is too graphic for TV happens off screen. We didn't see the Sorceress and her husband make love, but she still got pregnant with Teela.

I believe the Snakemen went through tunnels in the side of the "pit." I forget. I would have to re-watch and re-read the episode 40 comic.

I agree about too much death. I really think Saurod was killed in the movie though. It shocked me when I first saw it. I hope Sorceress comes back to life or just "changes" some how and does not die.

EDIT: Updated with the two new MOTUC deaths.

Oo-Larr is probably not around anymore.

Wait...Man-at-Arms is killed by Clamp Champ? When?

[redsquadron]

Characters only die of old age in my universe... I'm too nice

[Death Weed]

Hordak being defeated by Skeletor just shows to me that they're not ignoring Filmation. Every She-Ra episode that featured Skeletor and He-Man nearly ended in Hordak's death at the hands of Skeletor. He got the better of Hordak every single time, and She-Ra had to save Hordak on most of them. If that show actually had an end, She-Ra wouldn't have been the one who defeated Hordak.

[J-West]

As for Snake Face (or Snakeface), his fate is still uncertain since he was turned to stone. Mer-Man was brought back so maybe Hisss brought SF back too

Yes. It happened today, actually. Snake MAA's bio.

Hordak being defeated by Skeletor just shows to me that they're not ignoring Filmation. Every She-Ra episode that featured Skeletor and He-Man nearly ended in Hordak's death at the hands of Skeletor. He got the better of Hordak every single time, and She-Ra had to save Hordak on most of them. If that show actually had an end, She-Ra wouldn't have been the one who defeated Hordak.

I think if PoP continued, She-Ra and the Great Rebellion would have defeated the Evil Horde...but Hordak would definitely not be killed by She-Ra NOR Skeletor. He would have been driven off the planet by She-Ra (as he is in MOTUC, actually). He then goes to Eternia in MOTUC, which may have happened in Filmation if PoP AND MOTU continued. *shrugs*

As for Snake Face (or Snakeface), his fate is still uncertain since he was turned to stone. Mer-Man was brought back so maybe Hisss brought SF back too

That's true. Lots of dead characters come back in comics and superhero-related media too.
