It is new comic book day! And today, the epic tale behind Keldor’s newly formed unholy alliance with Hordak continues in the third issue of the comic prequel limited series to the “Masters of the Universe: Revolution” Netflix animated show! With writing by Tim Sheridan, Rob David and Ted Biaselli with art by Daniel HDR (and two variant covers to choose from), Issue #3 promises to delve further into the evil warriors’ partnership that was kicked off in issue one. Main Cover by artist Dave Wilkins Variant Cover by artist Andrew MacLean SYNOPSIS: ALL IS REVEALED!Hordak’s young apprentice, against the master’s orders, returns to his home world for what…
We have the Power! 
It's a fantastic issue! And as I stated earlier here and on Facebook... ScreenRant and their article was wrong.
They had not much of a "theory" based on the actions in the comic itself, and worse they phrased their statements like it were facts. But nope.
Not Shadow Weaver. 😉
The issue itself was really great. I love that they also referenced the 2021 Revelation comic as well.
I read it and have a question. The comic says Queen Marlena's baby is Grayskull's heir and Keldor is a heir too. Does that mean King Miro was a blood relative to King Grayskull? Is that true?
@eternianbunny That is my understanding, but someone feel free to correct me. I also see why thus series was released after Revolution. Would have spoiled key plot points!

That has been the overall notion, ever since the "bloodline" idea was conceived. That it goes from King Grayskull (from a millenia ago, or 1000 years ago depending on the canon), through Miro -> Randor -> Adam. And how it gives Keldor either a "right" to the throne, or even Power of Grayskull.
Mind you, the different canons treat it differently. 200x might be the one that popularized Keldor/Skeletor idea for modern audiences, but for example they never made the blood relation as a key factor for access to Grayskull Power. That honor mostly goes to Mattel's 2012 comics (through DC Comics).
For me, the bloodline thing just muddies everything. Because then the creators have to come up with reasons why wasn't Miro chosen as Champion of Grayskull, or why Randor didn't get picked for the role. Those aforementioned DC Comics had long, long storyarcs how Hordak needed blood to get into Castle Grayskull. He took Keldor as apprentice, didn't work. He made Keldor stab Randor, didn't work. He kidnapped Adora and seemingly that didn't help either. Nothing worked until he reached Adam (who had to be first transformed into He-Man). 😜 For the acquired blood to work.
I read it for the second time last night and it's even better the second time. Both times in the beginning I found it a little confusing to follow in the manner she is speaking to both Hordak and Keldor but this is the best issue yet. I am starting to wonder if He-Man is going to be in this at all but that's okay. This story doesn't need him.

I like how it connects to lines said in the show. I wish it was an episode.

It's kind of confusing but thank you for the explanation. 😺

I guess no He-Man in your story is OK as long as it's a comic. Someone should have mentioned that to Kevin Smith.
