This Show Could Serve as a Prequel to Original


In the pilot of the original '80s series, Prince Adam has already been He-Man for a while. We never saw how he got the power sword until this new series. Also, it is evident in this show that Adam is a teen whereas in the original show he is drawn to look like he is in his 20s. The funny thing about both shows, however, is that they both have an episode where Teela discovers she was adopted by Duncan and that Sorceress is her biological mother.

Impossible.

Hordak was around in the original show when Adam and Adora were born, in this series, he'd been trapped in another Dimension hundreds if not thousands of years before Adam was even born.

Add to the fact that none of the animals talk in this show (another big thing of the 80's show).

Skeletor was a Horde Member in the original when Adam and Adora were babies, in this one again, Hordak wasn't around in Eternia and Skeletor was not a member of the Horde, infact he wasn't even Skeletor when met Hordak and begged to be saved.

Zodac was white in the original, Zodak in this one he is clearly black.

MAA found teela in a giant birds nest in the original for crying out loud, in this one Sorceress gave MAA teela to raise as his own.

No one in their right mind would ever think this could be a prequel to the campfest original.

That's like saying Batman 1989 could be a prequel to the 60's Adam West Batman show, by your logic.

Mr Garak, first of all, lose the attitude. There was no need for your snippiness. I'm VERY sorry that I can't remember EVERY little detail of the original series. I was just going by what I remembered and how it compared to this show.

This one you are actually wrong about. Beastman, Stinkor, Rattlor, and Two-Badd all spoke.
