MotU newspaper comic, “Vengeance of the Viper King”

This was the second newspaper comic arc, starting in late October 1986.

After 2003, it’s impossible not to read a sarcastic tone into Prince Adam’s “Why does [only a fearless hero] sound familiar?”, due to King Grayskull and other close copies of He-Man being added to the lore.

The stone falcon idol has a spell imprisoning King Hiss, making this by far the earliest reference to competition between Eternia’s falcon and snake deities.

Also Skeletor had a maiden aunt.

In the mini-comics version of King Hiss’ story, he had to take control of Viper Tower to magically free Snake Face and Sssqueeze from the timeless dimension. Here he does it at the Swamp of Smokes. As both stories reference Filmation’s She-Ra, we can infer that they’re parallel timelines of Filmation continuity and the Swamp of Smokes is the land directly above Elders-buried Viper Tower.

King Hiss also brought the snake part of Snake Mountain to life in the 200X cartoon, though they used the name “Serpos” rather than “Sarcedon”.

“He-Man uses the Mirror of History to send Sarcedon back to the depths of Eternia!”

... the depths? OK, let’s see how long until artist Gerald Forton draws her coiled around the mountain again.

Review of Naive Interdimensional Commando Koalas issue #1 (And to the best of my knowledge only)

Review of Naive Inter-Dimensional Commando Koalas issue #1

What is it? Comic book; indicia gives a date of October 1986; there's also a joke at the end of the indicia about parodying the cover format of Ronin; glossy color cover; non-glossy black and white interior; approximately 29 story pages, 2 pages of paper dolls, and 2 pages of ads; Published by Independent Comics Group, Story: Sean Deming, Finished Art: Gerald Forton, Breakdowns/Covers: Danny Green, Cover Colors: Sam Parsons, Letters: Steve Haynie, Editing: Cat Yronwode and Dean Mullaney; the inside cover also includes writing credits for the songs quoted inside, and there's a photo of a real koala and a short text box about a chlamydia outbreak ravaging the koala population. Deep background: The comic book industry experiences a lot of boom and bust cycles. One of the boom cycles in the 80s saw an explosion of independent comic publishers trying to carve out a wedge of that pie from the Big Two, DC and Marvel. Many of the independent companies produced black and white books. One of the biggest hits of this time was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles book, a black and white self-published by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. The book was partly a parody of trends at the time: ninjas in Daredevil, mutants in the X-books, and they tried to emulate the look of the covers of the Ronin series with their own cover. The success of the TMNT led to other companies doing parodies of their parody. And that is how we ended up here. Plot Summary: In Australia in an alternate dimension of anthropomorphic animals, a band called the Koalas is playing a gig at the Burrow. They play their loudest song ever, “Slap That Bass”, a song written by Gershwin in our dimension, and then they get pulled through a dimensional vortex. The Koalas are a four-piece and all named Bruce. These initial four story pages are printed with the artwork upside down because Australia. They land in a delicatessen, probably in New York City, in the dimension of the Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters, a dimension that has many fewer anthropomorphic animals and more “normal” humans. The Koalas head to a fruit stand and start a fruit fight with passers-by, when one of them gets hit over the head by an old lady's umbrella. A mysterious pair of men in a car watch this incident. Koalas end up at the same car dealership as the Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters and fight them for no discernible reason. Fight is inconclusive. Obvious gag with someone saying the name Bruce out loud and all four Koalas and the hamster named Bruce all replying. Koalas are brought in by government agents. They are sent on a mission to a Middle Eastern country to overthrow an unfriendly Sheik Ratal N'Raul and reinstate the friendly Sheik Yerboobie. The Koalas do meet the resistance movement loyal to Sheik Yerboobie, which leads to the romantic subplot between brainy keyboardist Koala Bruce and Sheik Yerboobie's daughter. Sheik Ratal N'raul is overthrown by the Koalas, the brave resistance fighters, and the power of rock. What's Good About It? The crisp, fairly realistic art style works here. A lot of the mutant ninja mutant explosion books went very deliberately extremely cartoony; this one didn't. Some of the jokes land enough to make me grin or even slightly chuckle out loud. It's also a key moment in Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters continuity, as this is the origin point for the RV, Rodent Vehicle. What's Not So Good About It? They only ever published this one issue. Never revived the characters again at another company like Adolescent Radioactive Black Belt Hamsters was. The Sheiks's names were old jokes when this book was new and kind of a little bit some sort of -ist like racist. What The..? Moments: Gershwin's “Slap That Bass” is the loudest song ever? Where did the dimensional portal come from? Did the Koalas actually receive any actual commando combat training? Rating: 3 stars out of 5. It was truly a competently executed humor-action book. Method of Acquisition: Bought for full back issue price somewhere between 1988 and 1993 at the Book Stop comic

book store in Wyoming, Michigan.

REVIEW: He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: The Newspaper Comic Strips

It is hard to believe that a line of toys could have as much impact as He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. Immediately after the toy came out, there were the afternoon cartoons, then comics and video games and movies. There was a spin-off designed to appeal to girls, She-Ra: Princess of Power. The cartoon was revived twice. It never lasts long, but always reinforces the cult status of the…

RIP Gérald Forton (April 10, 1931- December 18 2021)

Born in Brussels, he worked for French & Belgian comics before moving to the USA in the early '80s. I especially loved his Teddy Ted western series.
