Good 'ol He-man, it's a wonder why no one wore pants, they just wore loin-cloths or tights.

I remember this mini comic. I was a huge Trap-Jaw fan also. For me it was absolutely the interchangeable arms.

God, I loved and love He-man. I still have every single one of my toys and even watched an episode of the MOTU cartoon the other day and it was bliss. Sadly though, I didn't care much for the mini-comics as a kid, so I missed out on that side of He-man. But I think my dad insisted we keep them safe and stored away somewhere so he probably still has them in pristine condition somewhere. That would be awesome to get my hands on them now :D

I have the comic with Man-e-Faces now that one rocked. Oj on a side not Great Lakes Avengers/GL-X-men/great lakes intiative/Great lakes champions is the best written drwan and all around BEST Comic ever it deserves a review and if there was one it needs MORE!!!!!!!!

[GLX-Mr. Ordinary]

Oh and my spelling need work HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!!

I wonder how long it will be before he-man gets a movie. Maybe it will be as cool as transformers was. I'm sure that they would figure out a way to get product placements into Eternia somehow.

There was a Masters of the Universe movie made in 1987 -

Get yourself a dose of Dolph Lundgren as He-Man. Gouging out your eyes was never so much fun.

I also think it's a shame they don't do things like the mini-comics with toys anymore. You'd get them with everything - G.I. Joe, Transformers, Sectaurs, MASK, etc - and they were all great fun, adding (usually bizarre) details to the greater 'canon' of the toy-line.

I darn near laughed to death when my eyes played a trick on me.....
I read: "The Menace Of Trap JEW"! Haha, that would be a great comic too.

Hey anybody remember Fisto (great name) he had a Giant Iron Fist for a hand he had a Evil Version But the Nam escapes me He was an Asian guy who had a Golden hand that he would use to chop things wit ( No lie talk about your stereo types) If anyone Know His name Please post it. Its bugging the heck outta me.Oh both charecters was fron He-man but the was like the second edition toy line or something.

[rizzo]

Ju-Jitsu was his name I believe.

[Tetsu Deinonychus]

I must be reverse aging, because when I was a kid I actually did over-analyze everything, but now I'm much more forgiving of "cartoon logic".

Masters of the Universe:Icons of Evil has an awesome story recounting the origin of Trapjaw. Merman,Beastman, and Triclops round out the rest of the 4 issue run. More of a Longbox thing, but MoTU related. Jitsu was the name of the evil asian counter part of Fisto.

[Captain PirateFace]

so... a question?

You encounter a prostitute whose nickname is "Trap Jaw"....
Run away or proceed?

[Desert_Screams]

The MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE movie was hilarious, in the way that World War II was hilarious or leprosy is hilarious. Hopefully Frank Langella (Skeletor in this mess of a film) has since replaced his agent....

[BakaGaijin]

My favs were Hordak and the Evil Horde. However, by some shitty decision by some shitty exec at Filmmation, they ended up being the villains in the She-Ra cartoons as opposed to Masters of the Universe; which was the toy-line they belonged to. To see my favorite toys in action, I had to plod through girly plots centered around toys I didn't care about. Bastards.

[D-MoN]

I'm pretty sure they used that loop on his head in the toy commercial. I just used to love Trap Jaw in the cartoon but he didn't bite enough shit.

[blacksamster]

The movie was amaaaaaazing. Courtney Cox, Dolph Lundgren, Frank Langella, and an 80s style plot which hinges on one guy's ability to play a synthesizer? COUNT ME IN.

I miss He-Man. Lets just hope they don't make a live action movie about him... Oh wait.
