I do like this; well drafted and balanced as a piece - and with more subtle colouration than usual in MOTU, some of which is way too garish in tone.

Well done.

Awesome classic rendition! I personally like the 2002 remake much better, but without the original, the remake wouldn't have existed at all.

Excellent artwork!

Thanks!! I remember the figures from childhood (and I have He-Man and Skeletor now) I will have to check out the '02 remake. Β I haven't seen the 80's one in ages - I bet its got that awesome 80s cheesiness

You're welcome!

The 2002 remake is very good (to be honest it's the first He-man that I ever saw). I've tried to watch the original, but found it to be too cheesy. As a warning, the remake is more serious, but it has its lighter moments as well. You'll see for yourself.

I hope you enjoy the remake! I found a website where you can watch it here:Β  www.animeflavor.com/index.php?…

Yes - I'm a big MYP/MVC fan too. Good to point this out to those unfamiliar with it. Many assume Filmation is all there is.

You might like this - which has just started to be posted by chapters. It's a really compelling tale - and has a strong 2002 series vibe to it.

I hope that you will read and enjoy it.Β  I think it's tremendously good - after only one of the 12 chapters - and with some splendid atwork, too.

I shall be interested to hear what you think.

I've finally gotten a good chance to read "Though Heroes Fall" and it's actually pretty good. I've just begun to read through part two recently. I like the blend of the old and the new that it has.

I've managed to get about halfway through Part 2 of the story and will continue from there. One thing that I'm struggling to grasp is the fact that Teela is a damsel in distress in the 1980's He-man. I'm so used to the 2002 remake's Teela it's strange for me see her put in the "captive princess" role.

archanc In reply to CrescentNubila [2014-04-26 05:08:11 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for following my recommendation; I certainly like the story a lotΒ  - and I agree that there's a hybrid feel to it - a blend of the old and the new together. That's part of the appeal, I find.

This version of Teela is younger (as is Adam) than Filmation, it would seem - but also less of the hardened warrior than the MYP version. It's an intriguing idea.

But I wonder if the whole 'damsel in distress' element here is a ploy and nothing much more. The intro. to the story rather infers that (I think.)
Β Either way, it's going to be interesting following what happens as the tale unfolds.

CrescentNubila In reply to archanc [2014-04-26 23:43:36 +0000 UTC]

You're welcome. It was very worth it. The story proves that both the old and new can coexist together to make something amazing.

Ah, that makes sense. I was assuming that the story's version of Teela was the official version. Now I know. I don't find the whole idea that appealing though as it's overused in way too many movies. I'm not a feminist or anything, but I do hate it when women are portrayed as stupid, weak and helpless.

The damsel and distress scenario does seem to be a ploy, but I wish it could've been something else. Oh well, I'm sure that the story in general will continue to be promising.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

archanc In reply to CrescentNubila [2014-04-27 11:09:48 +0000 UTC]

It does have its appeal, I find, that synthesis.

Maybe you are right about the whole damsel thing - even as a ploy. But I shall wait and see what happens. There may yet be more to it than that - and I get the distinct impression that this Evil-Lyn is FAR from stupid, weak or helpless!

But why don't you make your comments to the author direct? He seems quite open and approachable - and there's a healthy amount of discussion of just this type goes on there with some very enjoyable to-and-fro between writer and artist and commentators. I'm sure your thoughtful input would be valued - and we really ought not to be hijacking this thread!

CrescentNubila In reply to archanc [2014-04-27 18:01:48 +0000 UTC]

Very much agreed. By the way, there's two He-man fan fiction authors that I know of that I think you may like. These ladies are some of my favorite authoresses ever. (They've also written a collab story together called "Stumbling into the Light")Β

I should, but I figure it's his story so I'll just let him go with it. And I do agree,no need to clog up the comments section. Maybe we should continue via note if you want.

Great! I'm happy to hear that you liked it!Β  Β 

How far did you get? Did you get to the Snakemen arc? My fave characters: King Hiss and General Rattlor. I also am a big fan of Zodac, The Faceless One, Sorceress, Teela, Queen Marlena, Roboto, and Buzz-Off.

Other villains I like: Skeletor, Evil-Lyn, and Count Marzo.

I'm sorry to spoil it a bit for you, but the 2002 remake was cancelled after the second season. So characters that would've appeared later (like Adora, more of Hordak and the Horde, etc) are a no show. However, there is a comic of the 40th episode that was made as a special feature on the DVD. I'll try to link it to you.
