Review! Masters of the Universe: Origin of He-Man #1 (DC)

COVER: Ben Oliver.  Very cool cover.

STORY: Joshua Hale Fialkov. So Skeletor and He-Man are related? For an origin issue this sure doesn't
               answer any questions about He-Man's origin. Even when the Sorceress is giving her speech she
               suddenly stops when she mentions He-Man has an uncle... Skeletor? I was hoping that this
               book would answer some questions I have had since my childhood. What is the power of the
              power sword? What exactly is Castle Grayskull? How does Adam turn into He-Man and why?
              Alas, my questions remain unanswered.

ART: Ben Oliver. Great artwork! (even if it was lacking in backgrounds)

FINAL FILE: Buy, look at the pretty pictures, Bag it!...buy it only if you want to see some nice
                        comic art...the story is rather empty.
Cool cover!

Ben Oliver has got skills

NEPHEW!? Really?
