He-Man and the Masters of the Universe #5
Description
THE POWER SWORD, a weapon that grants access to the wisdom of Grayskull, was forged by the universe’s most powerful sorcerer—HE-RO. He-Ro created a second blade that would only be usable if a champion became a tyrant, but an accident corrupted it, tainting its violet metal. He-Ro hid the Sword of Flaws across Eternia, hoping to prevent misuse. Now the weapon has fallen into Skeletor’s hands, making him an even greater threat. Can He-Man and the Heroic Warriors stop him before he becomes MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE? This issue launches The Battle of Snake Mountain, Part 1 of 4, in an ongoing series set in the He-Man mythos. Script by Tim Seeley, art by Reilly Brown, with a cover by Ciro Nieli and colors by Jim Charalampidis, delivering classic action and fresh danger in a bold modern take on the franchise.
