He-man, Skeletor, He-man (Cartoon version)



Man I loved these guys.


I loved raising a stick over my head and yelling "I HAVE THE POOOWWWERRRR!

I loved seeing a young man surge with energy and become a legendary warrior.

I loved the feeling I got just by holding the chunky toys in my hand.

I loved the mountain of Masters of the Universe weapons lying on the floor.

I loved the bold image of He-Man mounted upon the faithful Battle-Cat.

I loved that Castle!

I loved being a kid.

  3. AMAZING!!! I loved He-Man I once stole a kids shark ride thing from pre school. I told my grandmother that my mom got it for me and I told my mom that my grandmother got it for me. And then I got caught and one of my earliest most vivid memories is having to give the toy back and apologize with adults towering all around and watching approvingly.

  7. Ahh, the childhood memories. Thank you so much for keeping all the vintage cartoon series alive with your tributes.

    And now for shameless fanboy mode:
    "Draw Battlecat! And Jace and the Wheeled Warriors! And M.A.S.K.! And the rest of the Thundercats (especially Cheetara)!"
    [/shameless fanboy mode]

    Seriously, I love this blog.

  8. Hey dean, been following your site for a while after seeing it on Gizmodo where they featured the comic heroes.

    Love the Simpsons myself, although I've stopped watching after the new seasons started sucking :p

    Anyway, was wondering if you had a place anywhere, where people could make suggestions of things they'd like to see "simpsonized"?

    Personally I'd love to see the character of Spawn made into a Simpsons version, as well as some video game characters like Sonic and Shadow the Hedgehog, as well as various Blizzard characters!

    I admin a fairly large Diablo 3 fansite, and would love to feature some Diablo themed simpsons characters if you ever made any!

    Either way, great work so far, and look forward to seeing what cool characters you can come up with next :)

  19. I agree with your comments about Adam's alter ego, dude! He-Man, along with Leon-o are the very best animated TV heroes I rememeber. Thanks for your designs! How do you draw them? I'm kinda an artist myself and I appreciate your work very much.
