After the runaway success of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe in 1983 led to a spate of toy-based series that were broadcast in syndication in America, He-Man returned in 2002, after the toys had been redesigned. Adam lost his Dutch boy hair cut and his body looked even more overdeveloped. The premise remained the unchanged: With the aid of the enchanted Sword of Power, Adam, the slacker-dude Prince of Eternia, becomes He-Man, the heroic defender of the realm against the evil machinations of Skeletor and his minions. Like Superman, Adam has to keep his alter-identity secret. But instead of spunky newswoman Lois Lane, his love interest is Teela, who insults and belittles him. From Snake Mountain, Skeletor hatches schemes to conquer Eternia, only to be thwarted by He-Man, with some help from Teela, Man-at-Arms, et al. With the possible exception of Evil-Lyn, Skeletor's henchmen are such doofuses, they don't feel like much of a threat. The battle between good against evil is so simplistic, it makes Dragon Ball look nuanced. The filmmakers try to capture some of the excitement of anime fantasy-adventures, but they pull their punches--literally and figuratively. Although the combatants twirl swords and pole arms like martial artists, no blood is shed and no one gets seriously injured. He-Man only uses his Sword of Power to deflect energy blasts: he slugs bad guys and monsters. The disc of extras includes video commentaries and animatics for three episodes, audio commentaries on five episodes and an extensive image gallery. (Rated TV Y7: violence) --Charles Solomon

After watching THE NEW ADVENTURES OF HE-MAN, I kinda expected this series to be a continuation. & for my surprise it wasn't. It was a more thorough & complete storyline. Like you get to see who's Skeletor even before being Skeletor & his name back then, which the memorabilia of HE-MAN says who Skeletor was before being Skeletor & his name back then. Plus on this series Cringer nor Battle Cat speaks like in the old series. All the characters kinda look the same from the old series but with some inside ... Read More

I would give this product 5 stars except for the defect in Adam's Courage where it skips several scenes. Otherwise excellent cartoon.

I grew up in the 80s, and I loved watching both He-Man and She-Ra everyday. When I read in 2002 that Cartoon Network was going to start showing He-Man, I was thinking "FINALLY! They've picked up the reruns!" When I found out that it was a new series, I still wasn't disappointed. I watched both seasons of this back then, and I have still not figured out for the life of me why Cartoon Network pulled the plug on this. Nonetheless, I'm glad they did release this on DVD. The 80s He-Man, She-Ra, New Adventures, ... Read More

This is a brilliant reinvention of the 80's animated series with an intoxicating blend of sword & sorcery, & sci fi. The characters & animation is visually arresting & the story lines are reinvigorating a lost & out in limbo franchise. This show only lasted 3 seasons but they're well worth the purchase.

I loved this update of the classic series, however for those who buy this in 2009 or later, there are no more replacement discs mentioned in some of the reviews below, so we are out of luck. I know because I tried to get one and the phone number is disconnected and the email listed just sends an automated response saying call the number--and the BCI GUY mentioned above was on a He-man website and said that BCI is going out of business. So no replacements. Supposedly you can buy an "Orko Approved" version that ... Read More
