1. In the center of the universe,Copy !req
2. on the planet of Eternia,Copy !req
3. rules Castle Grayskull,Copy !req
4. ancient fortress of mystery.Copy !req
5. Its power sought by the dark forces
of Snake Mountain,Copy !req
6. sanctuary of sin and sorrow.Copy !req
7. Ruled by the demon Skeletor
and his evil acolytes,Copy !req
8. and the only thing that
stands in their wayCopy !req
9. is Prince Adam, who defends
the secrets of Castle GrayskullCopy !req
10. as He-Man!Copy !req
11. The most powerful
man in the universe!Copy !req
12. Only four others
share this secret.Copy !req
13. Guardians of Grayskull all,Copy !req
14. amidst an army
of the honorable,Copy !req
15. committed to
guarding Castle GrayskullCopy !req
16. from the havoc of destruction.Copy !req
17. For those who control GrayskullCopy !req
18. control the power,Copy !req
19. the power to beCopy !req
20. Masters of the Universe!Copy !req
21. Oh, there, there, little Teela.Copy !req
22. This is a blessing.Copy !req
23. One that will manifest
when she needs it most.Copy !req
24. I'll never leave
our baby's side.Copy !req
25. I know you won't.Copy !req
26. But train her
to protect herself.Copy !req
27. One day, she will protect youCopy !req
28. and all of Eternia.Copy !req
29. My little bird...Copy !req
30. your mother,Copy !req
31. she loves you so much.Copy !req
32. But she's
going away for a while.Copy !req
33. She's going to see
the entire universe.Copy !req
34. And it will all
seem so small nowCopy !req
35. because it will
never make her feelCopy !req
36. like you did
the day you were born.Copy !req
37. Mama, mama!Copy !req
38. My Duncan.Copy !req
39. It's OK. It's OK.Copy !req
40. Attend the tale of Sorceress,Copy !req
41. seen here in her darkest hour.Copy !req
42. "Find the sword,"
the old crone cried.Copy !req
43. "It's the source of
my magical power."Copy !req
44. She summoned
three to Grayskull,Copy !req
45. a witch, a warrior, and ward.Copy !req
46. With all hope lost,Copy !req
47. the champion dead,
she begged them,Copy !req
48. "Find the sword!"Copy !req
49. Prince Adam!Copy !req
50. Alliances struck,
a fellowship formed,Copy !req
51. that stormed hell,
breached heaven and more!Copy !req
52. But only now do they understandCopy !req
53. it was all for Skeletor!Copy !req
54. It tastes like copper.Copy !req
55. What tastes like copper,
my lord?Copy !req
56. Time, I think.Copy !req
57. Or perhaps it's just the stars.Copy !req
58. Or after all these years
of appetition,Copy !req
59. maybe I'm just
savoring the tasteCopy !req
60. of transcendent triumph!Copy !req
61. I saw eons pass in
the darkening corners of space.Copy !req
62. I'd witness planets
made purely of iceCopy !req
63. and ancient suns
burning out and dying,Copy !req
64. taking entire civilizations with
them into eternal darkness.Copy !req
65. The air filled with
anguish and madness.Copy !req
66. You would have loved it, Lyn-y.Copy !req
67. Ah, sweet Sorceress.Copy !req
68. You've awakened!Copy !req
69. Or more like a-weakened.Copy !req
70. When the magic returned,Copy !req
71. instead of nourishing yourself
back to full strength,Copy !req
72. you let all of
Eternia drink it in first!Copy !req
73. How noble!Copy !req
74. And witless!Copy !req
75. If you hadn't so selfishly
tried to help others,Copy !req
76. you might have seen me coming!Copy !req
77. But alas,Copy !req
78. after all these years,Copy !req
79. I finally know
the real secret of Grayskull.Copy !req
80. We want to believe
in an ordered universe.Copy !req
81. Some grand architecture
holding it all together.Copy !req
82. But there is only power.Copy !req
83. Beautiful, chaotic, naked power!Copy !req
84. And every so often, for the most
unfathomable reasons,Copy !req
85. that power fixes itself
to one being.Copy !req
86. One in all creation!Copy !req
87. And now...Copy !req
88. I have the power!Copy !req
89. Soon, all of Eternia will remember
this historic momentCopy !req
90. when Skeletor
finally kills He-Man!Copy !req
91. I'm not He-Man!Copy !req
92. What did you say?Copy !req
93. I am Adam!Copy !req
94. Prince of Eternia!Copy !req
95. And defender...Copy !req
96. Ugh!Copy !req
97. And defender of the secrets
of Castle Grayskull!Copy !req
98. Hmm.Copy !req
99. Ha!Copy !req
100. And this is my fearless friend.Copy !req
101. Cringer.Copy !req
102. No!Copy !req
103. Run, Teela!Copy !req
104. - I'll hold him.
- Dad, you can't!Copy !req
105. Go!Copy !req
106. Aah!Copy !req
107. Going somewhere?Copy !req
108. Your little playtime is over!Copy !req
109. There's nowhere left to run.Copy !req
110. Nowhere left to hide.Copy !req
111. The power of Grayskull
has abandoned you!Copy !req
112. Aah!Copy !req
113. Ah!Copy !req
114. What?Copy !req
115. Silly Sorceress!Copy !req
116. You don't have enough magic
left to engage a god!Copy !req
117. I may not be at full strength,Copy !req
118. but you're only playing
at being a god, Skeletor.Copy !req
119. You forget what you truly are.Copy !req
120. And what is that?Copy !req
121. You're nothing but bones.Copy !req
122. Ugh!Copy !req
123. Ugh!Copy !req
124. Zoarvazeka!Copy !req
125. Shukmota, zoarvazeka!Copy !req
126. No!Copy !req
127. Zoarvaseka!Copy !req
128. Not so fast, Man-At-Arms.Copy !req
129. Shukmota, zoarvaseka!Copy !req
130. Ah!Copy !req
131. No!Copy !req
132. Tiresome woman!Copy !req
133. You've been
the Sorceress for so long now.Copy !req
134. Time for some new blood!Copy !req
135. Ha!Copy !req
136. No!Copy !req
137. Why? Why did you do that?Copy !req
138. Why, my love?Copy !req
139. My Duncan.Copy !req
140. Teela! Teela! Teela!Copy !req
141. You gotta help him!Copy !req
142. Oh, my God!Copy !req
143. Prince Adam!Copy !req
144. Wait,
we have to stop the bleeding.Copy !req
145. Zoar, help me.Copy !req
146. I love you, little bird.Copy !req
147. No, my love!Copy !req
148. Don't leave me!Copy !req
149. Eugh!Copy !req
150. Grief, it's so grotesque.Copy !req
151. Lock him up in the dungeons!Copy !req
152. Let him marinate in his tearsCopy !req
153. until I amputate
his man-at-arms!Copy !req
154. This abattoir of a universe
is teeming with the deadCopy !req
155. because men and women
are born solely to die.Copy !req
156. Gods, however,Copy !req
157. we live forever!Copy !req
158. This cryptic castle requires
a mistress of magic.Copy !req
159. So you are the new
Sorceress of Grayskull!Copy !req
160. You see what I could accomplishCopy !req
161. the moment I wasn't surrounded
by the buffoonery of obnoxious idiots!Copy !req
162. The best thing that ever happened to me
in my entire life was getting killed.Copy !req
163. And yet you survived.Copy !req
164. Before I was
atomized by the orb,Copy !req
165. I quickly cast my soul inside
your wand staff for safekeeping.Copy !req
166. There,
I fed off you like a tick.Copy !req
167. Slowly regrowing
my body from yours!Copy !req
168. And when I was strong enough,Copy !req
169. I whispered to you the winds and
witches that have brought you here.Copy !req
170. You used me!Copy !req
171. Of course I used you!Copy !req
172. And I paid you backCopy !req
173. by enhancing you
with some of my power!Copy !req
174. Sadly, the sacred station
of the SorceressCopy !req
175. also comes with
a crooked curse, my dear.Copy !req
176. You are bound, forevermore,
to the halls of Grayskull,Copy !req
177. unable to ever leave
this forsaken fortress.Copy !req
178. But thanks to my newfound power,Copy !req
179. I will bring the universe...Copy !req
180. to you!Copy !req
181. And now,Copy !req
182. I want you to use that powerCopy !req
183. to see where the Sorceress
sent her servants.Copy !req
184. How'd you do that magic thing?Copy !req
185. - I don't know.
- Come on!Copy !req
186. Woo!Copy !req
187. Tang!Copy !req
188. Your king and queen
are gone not ten minutesCopy !req
189. and you treacherous thieves
try to loot the palace!Copy !req
190. I'll let you hit him
with your fistCopy !req
191. if you let me hit you with mine.Copy !req
192. Clamp-Champ, Fisto,
are you two blind?Copy !req
193. That's Teela!Copy !req
194. Teela!Copy !req
195. Zoar-above!Copy !req
196. Teela, we know.
This one, we don't.Copy !req
197. She's a friend of mine, Fisto.Copy !req
198. And you guys know me.Copy !req
199. Prince Adam!Copy !req
200. What sick sorcery is this?Copy !req
201. You want to talk sick sorcery?Copy !req
202. You should see
what Teela just did.Copy !req
203. It's not magic. Adam is alive.Copy !req
204. Somehow.Copy !req
205. Oh, the king and queen
will be elated!Copy !req
206. Raenius, where is everybody?
Where's Mom and Dad?Copy !req
207. I just sent them off,
in the talon-fighter.Copy !req
208. When we saw what was happening
in the skies above Grayskull,Copy !req
209. the king decreed
an evacuation of Eternos.Copy !req
210. Once the city is empty,Copy !req
211. the plan is to
rendez-vous at Point Dread.Copy !req
212. Is it true?Copy !req
213. Skeletor has returned?Copy !req
214. Ask him yourself.Copy !req
215. He's back, all right.Copy !req
216. I'd sure like to fist him!Copy !req
217. Pathetic people of Eternia,Copy !req
218. your almighty masterCopy !req
219. has finally found a purpose
for your utterly useless lives.Copy !req
220. As an Army of the Dead!Copy !req
221. Ah!Copy !req
222. There you are!Copy !req
223. My, you certainly are resilient.Copy !req
224. Let me help with that!Copy !req
225. Move!Copy !req
226. The mist! It's corrosive!Copy !req
227. Then don't
let it touch you!Copy !req
228. - Adam!
- Go on, I got this!Copy !req
229. Alley-oop!Copy !req
230. Now's not the time to lounge
around the castle, Prince Adam.Copy !req
231. That stings, come on!Copy !req
232. This way, come on!Copy !req
233. It's time for
this mist to meet my fist!Copy !req
234. Ah!Copy !req
235. Ha!Copy !req
236. Raenius, it's me!Copy !req
237. Snap out of it!Copy !req
238. It's no use. Whatever's left
of our friends is long gone.Copy !req
239. Sorry to do this, Clamp-Champ.Copy !req
240. Ha!Copy !req
241. If you wanna beat me,Copy !req
242. it'll take more than
just a fist!Copy !req
243. Ah!Copy !req
244. Hey, Teela!Copy !req
245. I'm sorry.Copy !req
246. I'm sorry, old friends.Copy !req
247. You deserved better deaths.Copy !req
248. Their souls
were honest and true.Copy !req
249. So, if I know anything
about the afterlife...Copy !req
250. both Fisto and Clamp-Champ
were already in Preternia.Copy !req
251. They would be.Copy !req
252. But as you can see,Copy !req
253. I hold their souls right here,Copy !req
254. in the palm of my hand.Copy !req
255. Such is the power with which
I find myself imbued.Copy !req
256. Now, I have command
not only over life and death,Copy !req
257. but the afterlife as well!Copy !req
258. And you, Adam,Copy !req
259. you abused this power.Copy !req
260. You hid it away and only ever
called upon it to police me,Copy !req
261. when you could've used that power
to rip the soul from my body!Copy !req
262. Like I just didCopy !req
263. to your noble friends!Copy !req
264. So, while they were bound for glory
and eternal reward in Preternia...Copy !req
265. I just damned them both
to Subternia instead!Copy !req
266. You dare to attack me?Copy !req
267. Ha-ha! Without your silly sword,Copy !req
268. you're no longer He-Man.Copy !req
269. I mean, you're barely a man!Copy !req
270. Just look at you!Copy !req
271. Once the bane of my existence,Copy !req
272. now merely a bug on the
windshield of my wind-raider.Copy !req
273. Ha!Copy !req
274. Your heroics are
hilarious to me!Copy !req
275. You wanna fighty-fight?Copy !req
276. I can unmake you with a thought!Copy !req
277. But you think you can
punch your way to a victory?Copy !req
278. Ha-ha! Tell you what, kid?Copy !req
279. Take your best shot!Copy !req
280. What are we laughing at?Copy !req
281. See, the sword
is just the conduit.Copy !req
282. But the spark?
That was always me.Copy !req
283. And I've often wondered...Copy !req
284. what kind of fabulous secret
powers would be revealed to meCopy !req
285. if I didn't have the sword...Copy !req
286. but still said the words?Copy !req
287. No!Copy !req
288. By the power of Grayskull!Copy !req
