While searching for Draego-Man fan art, I came across the work of CJEdwards, who’s drawn a quartet of images of the 30th Anniversary figures that actually makes even the non-Draego-Man ones kind of…cool?
It took more than ten years of working on the property, but the Four Horsemen have finally added their own brand-new character to Masters of the Universe. You can read the not-so-secret history of Draego-Man’s creation in this Fwoosh interview with Horseman Eric Treadaway last year, which describes the process behind his creation. Of course, [...]

When the Sorceress was introduced as a character in the 1980s Filmation cartoon [...]
PGPoA was mentioned on Ain’t It Cool News’ AICN Toys section yesterday in regard to my recent post about DCUC. Unfortunately, the quote they attribute to me is actually something I quoted from NoisyDvL5′s editorial on ItsAllTrue. I posted a comment to try and set the record straight. It’s been a banner week for Power Pals. [...]
