Ok, so I read it, and it was pretty cool. I actually like the look of Skeletor and crew.
Also, I think this is proof that the bios are not necessarily cannon for other media...
Oh, and real blood in a Masters of the Universe comic? This isn't our childhood mini-comics story. We have matured!
Well worth the 99 cents!!

It continues into the Batgirl series... And beyond. As a fan of the figures, I was happy to see a comic based on them.

UGH! That guy makes Toyguru's work look like Shakespeare's.The second chapter (7/14) is written by Mike Costa
Since when does blood equal maturity?!
Also, it's not the first MOTU comic book to show blood.
Brings doom to MOTUC with cel accuracy.
Wow! Art by Howard Porter!

Well...i love the tone of the story.
When the mention sll name it hurts. It just illustrates how bad a name it is. It doeant fit his persona or tone of thestory. I hate the mention of spector. So skelly and crew mention spector as one to avoid...that builds my fear ugh. over all i give it a 7. Maybe 6.5. Hate evil lyns redesign everyni else isnt bad. Sll is black? I like how he looks without the suit. And i like his character..but as vertigoink said the toy doesnt look like that. sigh. I hope the main mjni series focuses on the real motu characters. I understand this was a sll spotlight...but the spector mentio really irked me.

Fair point about blood not equalling maturity, however, this is the first time I recall seeing violence on this level in MOTU comics...
Have we seen anything this graphic before? I guess the MVC work might have, what with Kronis/Trap Jaw's transformation... It's just a bit shocking when, for me approaching 40 next year, my nostalgic memories are of the more "innocent" 80s media.
If memory serves, there wasn't much for him to work with given the way things had played before, on Transformers. His run on Cobra was excellent, though. But... This is Battle Cat right? What kind of story should we be expecting... He seems like an odd spotlight choice.
And I'm unclear, are these spotlights tied into the upcoming series, or standalone/part of something else?

See the last part of the post you quoted.![]()
Im assuming they will all tie in... as this was one was titled a Prologue.
Wasn't a bad read... I enjoyed it and I liked how they worked the new characters in.
While I'm one of those who loves Sir Laser-Lot, I wish his plume was more "lasery" looking.![]()

Just read it and liked it - a bit different but still recognisable as masters. I really like the new redesigns - Evil-Lyn especially!

See, now why can't the bios flesh things out more like this prologue comic did? This comic did what I wish the bios would do: give the character's powers some explanation and origin. And also give us a bit more info as to where they fall in the story. Now Sir Laser Lot actually makes a bit of sense...
While I groaned when I saw Sir Laser Lot was the focus of this debut issue, I have to say- it was done well! A nice "in" to the story... I like the comic book version of Sir Laser Lot- I just wish the action figure itself came out better!
On a first reading, I'm underwhelmed.... But I guess I'll see how I feel after further readings and further issues
He who dies with the most MOTUC wins!
Pre-Filmation MOTU was just as violent, with characters cutting down villains with axes and swords. Check out the original DC Comics Masters of the Universe mini-series' first and second issues for the best examples of this. In the first issue, Battle Cat, He-Man and Blonde Bikini Teela are actually having a conversation mid-battle about their preferred methods to dispatch foes...

I could see it happening in a trade...
Maybe we might see physical copies if the book really takes off.

I just downloaded and read the digital thing. It wasn't mind blowing but I did enjoy it -- liked some of the elements there of our knight. The thing that weirded me out the most was how Evil Lyn looked.
