Upon opening the He-Man and the Masters of the Universe mini-comic book collection, I was immediately impressed! This is like the best, most amazing book ever! As a book collector, I own many books, including some very lovely roleplaying game and comic books, so there are a few that I've seen that are comparable to this in terms of sheer awesome, but this one might just about take the cake, eat a piece, and push the rest of it on Skeletor's face while giving a sarcastic one-liner, followed by Skeletor yelling "Noooo!", which is then followed by comedic laughter by all the hero characters as the scene ends. It's just so incredibly, and even unexpectedly, beautiful! I love the illustrations and the vibrant colors and the smell of the ink and paper. I'm totally psyched! My favorite books of all time include titles that are rich with illustration and beautiful and creative conceptual imagery. This heavy tome is now instantly at the top of my list. It is 2 1/4 inches thick and has a bright red silk bookmark ribbon. The storyline text is sometimes a little inconclusive, raw, or simplistic, but that really just makes it read more like an old fairy tale or a children's book, which is how the stories of The Masters of the Universe tend to play out. In the introduction, Tim Kilpin states (something like; to paraphrase), that in the beginning, they were trying to sell toys, but that the process of developing storylines and character origins that were fun for children was something that they took seriously, that took on a life of its own, and it shows. I feel like I'm reading an ancient tome or some long lost forgotten fairy tale of biblical proportions. I'm sure that a little bit of this has to do with childhood nostalgia. But He-Man has at least a few things in common with many heroes and champions of the forces of good, from modern stories, 20th-century pulp fiction, as well as ancient myths. It's one of the few storylines that successfully combines genres of magic - sword and sorcery - with technology and science fiction themes, other dimensions, and extraplanetary travel. I can't think of many other brands or stories that do this in a way that's similar.... Warhammer 40K, Final Fantasy, or maybe Riddick or the Princess of Mars Chronicles? He-Man is pretty unique. These stories are fun, interesting, and beautifully portrayed. Contained within seems to be all the He-Man and She-Ra comics ever written, save for a few obscure issues that were printed in Brazil which were seemingly so rare that they could not be tracked down and rediscovered. This collection is epic and gorgeous. You can tell that love and attention was put into both the initial creation of these comics, back in the 1980s, as well as into this vibrant 2015 restored collection. I was seriously not expecting something of this level of quality and content for the price, which is why I decided to write this review. Considering the production value and obvious effort put into it, I might've expected this book to be 3 times what it actually cost on Amazon. Alfredo Alcala is automatically one of my new favorite artists; his use of color is tremendously striking and simultaneously both imaginary or ethereal as well as realistic. I'd compare his work maybe to Katsuya Terada's during the late 80s. Even if you're not a huge fan of The Masters of the Universe, but just a fan of comic books or of the (2nd) golden age of illustration, this book is something you really should consider owning.

Me ha sorprendido la calidad del tomo, son más de 1200 páginas con todos los minicómics de nuestra infancia. Se trata de los cómics que traían las figuras para presentar personajes y demás, así que son autoconclusivos y tienen un argumento muy simple. Dato curioso, los primeros cómics se hicieron antes de contar con una línea argumental clara, que luego seguirían tanto los cómics de Marvel como la serie de dibujos. Todos están incluídos en el tomo, con notas a pie de página para aclarar todo tipo de detalles, incluídas las incongruencias del argumento. Al estar publicado en un formato mayor que el original, tanto los dibujos como el texto aparecen aumentados, por lo que está muy bien si tienes problemas de vista o estás leyéndolo a alguien; pero ojo, que está en Inglés. La edición es muy chula, con una cinta para marcar las páginas y todo.
