Reviews

This one has excellent art! And the characterizations are very in line with the TV series.

Plot, dialogue and art are all on point! My favorite of the “He-Man” Golden Books I’ve read so far.

Skeletor is after the Cosmic Clock in order to control time. When he spots the Sorceress spying on him, he takes her captive. Without her, the friends must rely on Orko’s shaky magic in order to save the Sorceress and escape the alternate dimension…before the clock strikes twelve!

Loved the illustrations in this one especially of the female characters! I’m always up for seeing more of the Sorceress, Evil-Lyn, and Teela (especially in her snake armor). In true fashion, He-Man used his total brute strength to save the day. I liked how He-Man and the Sorceress called Skeletor the Evil Lord of Destruction. That was definitely mirrored from the toy line.

Love the art. A mixture of original MofU toy style with very little of the cartoon influences.
