@rogerblake my hope is there's no international version and Walmart exclusive are just US versions only.

The wordless versions on Vaults of Grayskull are great for when I'm making a wiki page for a character or item or whatever, but not great for reading.

You can find the original art on Freddie E. Williams' site.

@rogerblake that's cool but I'd like color. Although it would be fun to color those myself.

@zodac they almost look AI drawn but with someone coming in to fix the hands. The Art "style" works for VeeFriends but not for Rokkon. 

 

Really I think we're all spoiled with how damn good the ToG art is.

 

True. I wonder how much of a role AI is going to play in designing the figures, packaging art, comics, etc down the road.

The art done by actual artists has been a big part of how Mattel promotes the stuff. Pixel Dan always mentions how cool the art is in every revue and often mentions the name of the artist. And currently IG pages like Roy Juarez shout out the art and creators, which then inspires a lot of YouTube/Blog reporting on MOTU, which excites the fan base. 

They're not about to upset the whole applecart by saving a couple bucks on art.

NOTES
  • We're Back down to 6 pages
  • The art is dramatically improved over "The Spear of Eternity"
  • The choice in characters in interesting, I get Lord Gr'Asp, Extendar, and He-Man, but the rest just see like the artist or writer picked his favorites
  • The ending is rushed and cringy

@smitty-81 I just want to say thank you for publishing these minicomics for all of us to read. I also agree the ending is rushed and cringy.

The Fog Spirit appeared in the German Interpart-Condor comic story ‘The Valley of Power.’ He was the protector of the aforementioned Valley and when Buzz-off was on a scouting mission, he flew too close to the valley and was trapped in its terrible Fright Fog. He-man and the Masters head off to rescue him and of course Skeletor tries to take advantage.

@dan1980 that's so cool. I love when franchises incorporate this kind of deep cut.

Apparently that is issue 20, which is available in this video.

@rogerblake I’ve managed to get scans of the Interpart Condor comics and have translated them, just need to put the translations into the scans.

I can help with that. I am proficient at Photoshop and letter my own comics. (Kari Crock - Lady crocodile making deliveries for Space Amazon to monsters and aliens who want to eat her. - Available on Google Play ebooks.)
