This is He-Man the way I always wanted it to be: exciting, action-packed, and well-animated. This is a brilliant series and I recommend it to anyone, even if you haven't seen a He-man cartoon before. Absolutely fantastic!

It IS He-Man!
Review date: 2008-02-23 Rating: 10 out of 10
Never wrote a review before on here, so here goes:
A pleasure to watch, a new inventation of He-man that goes into the origins & makes sense. The show has intrigue (just who is Teelas father?), subplots (Evil Lyns dad isn't Evil?) & story (how Skeletor Became Skeletor) & humour (how Skeletor punishes his Minions...Twobad?).
It is far much more than "lets throw in another new character so we can get kids to buy more". Teela, Adam & He-man's relationship is still like the Lois Lane/Clark/Superman relationship. The Humour is there & this sereies just gets stronger as it goes on (watch the Episode where He-man trys to stop Skeletor from resurrecting the Horde!), something for Adults (later on Zodaks brother was eaten by the Snakemen...gross).
The Evil Henchmen are just as dopey, the goodguys not as depenedant on He-Man (its nice to see heroes like Mossman holding their own). Its great to know that an 80's Cartoon can be brought back, Re-made & be this GOOD. If your an He-man fan, this is a tribute through & through, get over that Battlecat is more Animal than his early humour injuicing predeccesor & enjoy story, Action, Humour & Entertainment!
this Is He-man!
Ps yes I do miss He-man punching the screen, & He-man has gone a long way from being just some Conan figures that they couldn't sell to kids.
Good

I loved this series. It really was an interesting attempt to update the He Man canon. what is interesting here is that the producers tried to create an ongoing storyline which pays off in interesting ways.
Personally I will be ordering this as soon as it comes out. Definitly worth a look.
Not He-Man

This He-Man series is from a few years ago on channel on Sky known as Toonami it has appeared on ITV also but is in no way the best.
He-Man is from the 80's many animators have tried to recreate the cult TV show on the 80's and failed.
This is the latest failure to make to series Prince Adam and the others don't look like they should Cringer Adam no longer speaks and the evil Horde is mentioned a few times.
If you want He-Man invest in the 80's season one box set or the three triple sets.
This He-Man is a real let down if you remember the 80's this will shock you if your kids ask for He-Man get the true He-Man from the 80's and tell this is He-Man not the rubbish that they have seen on TV in recent years.
