It is based on the 80s series and begins with the unresolved stories from the original production i.e. the confrontation of He-Man and Skeletor for Eternia, to once again begin what could be the final battle between the two.

Creator is Kevin Smith (chasing amy, 1997). Narratively, our series was planned to be the next episode of the legendary 80s animated series that aired between 1983 and 1985. It is a continuation of that story. We will play with the original legends and characters, revisit the plots that remain to be resolved.“.

One of the unfinished themes from the original series that lingered in the minds of the ’80s is precisely the last meeting between He-Man and Skeletor. Smith said, “We can see them participating Not only in swordsmanshipBut in much deeper conversations than we’ve seen before. It’s not like these two guys have been trying to hit each other for decades.”

The reactions of followers on Google varied: “It’s such a shame that what Kevin Smith has just done with such a great story and a great hero so many of us have grown up with that we’d rather see again after so many years. In this series, He-Man is a weakling with no presence or character, leaving Prince Adam so much worse, without being He’s anything special because he’s a Greyskull sword bearer. The series is really bad and from what I saw in Chapter 5 it’s only going to get worse with more than ‘show From Tila’s Revenge or “Tila’s Revenge”. I’m so sick of them taking the classic stories that made our generation the best for fun and having fun, that they end up making the history mess they want. They change the role of each character…”.

Another fan of the series said, “I really liked it, it respects the essence of the characters and the ambiance of the last year, and gives it a modern touch without changing at all. Excellent that I save the stories of the secondary characters as seen in the vignettes of the stories that came with the dolls.”
