New Philip Tan Artworks for DC Comics' He-Man

James Robinson and Philip Tan are working very closely on a new project that will cater specifically to kids of the 80s like me: He-Man or more appropriately known as "Masters of the Universe".

I'm actually a bit excited for this one not because I grew up watching He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (and Thundercats and Tiger Sharks and Visionaries and Transformers) but also because they have Philip Tan onboard the project.

The story is pretty much the same wherein He-Man battles Skeletor but because of the editorial mandate to "introduce He-Man to the younger generation but still keep the older fans happy", we met He-Man while he's in a tight spot. You see all his allies have forgotten about their heroic deeds. To make matters worse (or interesting depending on how you see it) Skeletor also rules Eternia already.

Hopefully Comicxhub (my LCS) gets to order the variant covers as well as the regular stuff.
