Though it only aired for two seasons, the classic 1980s cartoon series HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE remains a nostalgic favorite of anyone who grew up in the Reagan era. Originally created to sell a line of action figures, the syndicated series transcended its toy tie-in roots with imaginative storytelling; well-defined characters; vibrant, hand-drawn animation; and an adroit blend of action, fantasy, and science fiction.The series follows the mythical adventures of a mild-mannered royal whose magic sword transforms him into a loinclothed, Prince Valiant-coiffed muscleman known as He-Man, the most powerful being in the universe. Together with a loyal band of followers that includes his pet tiger Cringer, man-at-arms Duncan, beautiful captain-of-the-guards Teela, the cloaked floating magician Orko, and his winged mentor Sorceress, He-Man fights to protect the magically-powered Castle Greyskull from the evil clutches of his skull-faced nemesis Skeletor, who presides over his own army of supervillains. This collection chronicles He-Man and Skeletor's epic battles with 10 episodes chosen by fans as the two seasons' best.
