@durendal it looks like they reused Webstor's legs.

@smitty-81 I completely agree with your points. Hopefully the next minicomic is better!

Thoughts:
  • I don't like the use of Demo-Man as part of Skeletor's back story.
  • I like the border the put around the flash-back.
  • I'm not exactly sure what happens at the end other than Hordak got the Dungeon Orb...
  • It's not a good story for Demo-Man as he doesn't do anything and we don't know much about him.

This Demo-Man story is straight out of Classics. He even has the same real name and it has the bit about their consciousness being merged (so Skeletor thinks he is part of a race of demons like the early mini-comics).

Also, "bowels" is misspelled as "bowls".

This Demo-Man story is straight out of Classics.

I know. It's not good now and it wasn't good then. There are less that zero reasons to make Demo-Man Keldor's life support system, and there are thousands of better ways to use Demo-Man.

That one panel where he wants to unleash hordes of demons (and merge Eternia with Despondos), is a good use for Demo Man and one of my favorite scenes.

The beginning was kinda nicely foreboding.

Even though I dislike the Classics origin of Skeletor with the Demo-Man inclusion, at least this story frees him from Skeletor and makes him his own character (again). They didn’t contradict / cancel that old origin, but at least resolved it / negated it in-story.

This is a direct result of the Classics line incessant need to make everything they produced connected. The arse kicker is Mark Taylor said this design was never an early Skeletor. I do not understand Mattel’s desire to continue with this poor excuse of canon after other writers have produced better ideas.

@cosmic That's the key right there - by separating him from Skeletor, he becomes an independent threat to both the heroes and rival villains on Eternia. I love that this potentially sets him up to lead his own faction, if Mattel actually follows through on that. 

MOTU needs more factions!

@durendal you would be right if he didn't seem to be one of Hordak's lackies and if we didn't end the story with him as Hordak's Pokémon prisoner.

@smitty-81 Yeah that's very ending is a bit weird, but I'm confident when Hordak tries to use him, things will go horribly wrong and Demo-Man will be his own man / demon again.

Nothing will stop him from his final goal: To be a part of Skeletor again! JK

So, I missed the announcement that Scare Mare would include a mini-comic, not that I could justify that purchase. That said, I hope if anyone did take that plunge, they would please post the mini-comic. Thanks.
