Review: Sheer awesome! vibrant - beautiful - Upon opening the He-Man and the Masters of the Universe mini-comic book collection, I was immediately impressed! This is like the best, most amazing book ever! As a book collector, I own many books, including some very lovely roleplaying game and comic books, so there are a few that I've seen that are comparable to this in terms of sheer awesome, but this one might just about take the cake, eat a piece, and push the rest of it on Skeletor's face while giving a sarcastic one-liner, followed by Skeletor yelling "Noooo!", which is then followed by comedic laughter by all the hero characters as the scene ends. It's just so incredibly, and even unexpectedly, beautiful! I love the illustrations and the vibrant colors and the smell of the ink and paper. I'm totally psyched! My favorite books of all time include titles that are rich with illustration and beautiful and creative conceptual imagery. This heavy tome is now instantly at the top of my list. It is 2 1/4 inches thick and has a bright red silk bookmark ribbon. The storyline text is sometimes a little inconclusive, raw, or simplistic, but that really just makes it read more like an old fairy tale or a children's book, which is how the stories of The Masters of the Universe tend to play out. In the introduction, Tim Kilpin states (something like; to paraphrase), that in the beginning, they were trying to sell toys, but that the process of developing storylines and character origins that were fun for children was something that they took seriously, that took on a life of its own, and it shows. I feel like I'm reading an ancient tome or some long lost forgotten fairy tale of biblical proportions. I'm sure that a little bit of this has to do with childhood nostalgia. But He-Man has at least a few things in common with many heroes and champions of the forces of good, from modern stories, 20th-century pulp fiction, as well as ancient myths. It's one of the few storylines that successfully combines genres of magic - sword and sorcery - with technology and science fiction themes, other dimensions, and extraplanetary travel. I can't think of many other brands or stories that do this in a way that's similar.... Warhammer 40K, Final Fantasy, or maybe Riddick or the Princess of Mars Chronicles? He-Man is pretty unique. These stories are fun, interesting, and beautifully portrayed. Contained within seems to be all the He-Man and She-Ra comics ever written, save for a few obscure issues that were printed in Brazil which were seemingly so rare that they could not be tracked down and rediscovered. This collection is epic and gorgeous. You can tell that love and attention was put into both the initial creation of these comics, back in the 1980s, as well as into this vibrant 2015 restored collection. I was seriously not expecting something of this level of quality and content for the price, which is why I decided to write this review. Considering the production value and obvious effort put into it, I might've expected this book to be 3 times what it actually cost on desertcart. Alfredo Alcala is automatically one of my new favorite artists; his use of color is tremendously striking and simultaneously both imaginary or ethereal as well as realistic. I'd compare his work maybe to Katsuya Terada's during the late 80s. Even if you're not a huge fan of The Masters of the Universe, but just a fan of comic books or of the (2nd) golden age of illustration, this book is something you really should consider owning. Review: Excellent, exceptional, and worth every penny! - A must for any MOTU fan!! Absolutely worth it. Be prepared to hold it and be in awe of it's magnificence. Thank you to the people who cared enough to make this beauty happen. It means so much!! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #764,373 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #114 in Graphic Novel Adaptations #763 in Media Tie-In Graphic Novels #1,043 in Dark Horse Comics & Graphic Novels | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 2,278 Reviews | ## Images ![He-Man and the Masters of the Universe Minicomic Collection - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91A5STAB88L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sheer awesome! vibrant - beautiful *by N***Y on November 7, 2015* Upon opening the He-Man and the Masters of the Universe mini-comic book collection, I was immediately impressed!

Absolutely worth it. Be prepared to hold it and be in awe of it's magnificence. Thank you to the people who cared enough to make this beauty happen. It means so much!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly good for more than just nostalgia *by A***S on November 12, 2015* I must confess - I purchased this collection simply because I own quite a few of the earliest minicomics of the He-Man universe (although the toys have long since died, having been played to death, I took special care of the packed-in minicomics), and I really just wanted to see the other stories attached to it. I had no expectation of actually enjoying the comics - this was merely for completion purposes, to scratch an itch from childhood (obviously, no parent bought every toy for his/her child). However, having recently received this volume, I can heartily recommend it to anyone who loves comics for what they are - as fun, kid entertainment. This isn't for the bluebloods who won't read anything that isn't written by Moore, Morrison, Gaiman, or Miller - this is for people who grew up on comics and cartoons of the 70s and 80s. You know - the ones who watched Superfriends and read the old Spider-Man reprints (they were Collector's Item Classics, after all!). If you fit that category, you're in for a treat. First, the physicals of the volume. This is a large, heavy hardbound book of 1000+ pages. There is no dust jacket, but the cover is printed as shown. I actually prefer this - while I own plenty of hardbound comic volumes, it feels weird to see old Superman comics bound in faux leather. The stock of the paper is thick and glossy (and cheap, to be fair). For a thirty dollar cover, this is a good value, but for the discounts for which this can be found on Amazon, this is a no-brainer. The book begins with the earliest He-Man "comics", which are actually just illustrated books. They then move to actual comic form. It's fun seeing the evolution of characters (originally, Teela was a goddess, and there was no sorceress, but merely a "spirit of Grayskull"), but soon enough, the comics fall in line with the mythology set forth by the cartoon (i.e. He-Man is really Prince Adam, son of Randor, etc.). The art changes dramatically as the comic moves forward. There are a couple of big-name artists present here (most notably, Bruce Timm, who would become quite famous with the excellent Batman Animated Series and its DC follow-ups), but honestly, I enjoyed all of the art present here. In addition to He-Man, there are collected the She-ra, Princess of Power comics as well. I never had any interest in this as a kid (I always thought that was a toyline trying to break into the girl market), but it's nice to see the collected comics here. They are substantially more..."girly" than the He-Man comics. In addition to the minicomics, there are numerous interviews present, as well as interesting footnote tidbits of the comics and their place in the mythology. This is surprisingly thorough representation of a comic that has, quite frankly, been long-forgotten outside of its (rather small) fanbase, and I for one am thrilled at it. So again, if you're looking for fun comics of yesteryear, and aren't afraid to look past the kid nature present (I know - how dare comics be written for kids!), there is much to enjoy here. If you're a child of the 80s and grew up on this, of course, it's a no-brainer.
