This review sums it all up for me:
"So glad that DC left the Filmation's campy kid's stuff behind in favour of a more dark and serious tale of betrayal and vengeance. The level of violence was remarkable to MOTU standards: He-Man ruthlessly stabbing and slashing his foes, Skeletor beheading the Sorceress, Battlecat chewing on one of Evil-Lyn's warriors ... awesome!!!"
Sigh

The sound you can hear is my head being shaken, and of DC missing the point of He-Man by so much that it wouldn't even count as close with nuclear weapons let alone horsehoes and hand-grenades.

Karl No Karl, He-Man being a cartoon for little kids is inherently shameful. Putting lots of blood and gore and boobs and turning the shameful comedy characters into SECRET VILLAINS is adult and mature. Because that is what 'adult' and 'mature' mean. |

I'd have no problems with DC doing a more adult take on He-Man in line with the original mini-comics, before the Filmation backstory was developed. But this isn't adult in the slightest.

I hope there is a Filmation style epilogue full of good and wholesome ethical advice....
