The Secret Liquid of Life! is a 1983 Masters of
the Universe mini-comic written by Michael Halperin and illustrated by
Larry Houston and Michael Lee. Here, He-Man and companions help a friend rescue
his fiancé.
Here’s a change of pace – a bunch of new characters and no
Skeletor. The story seems thrown together (if she was kidnapped, why did Geldor
need an illusion?), but it’s nice to see some non-whites on Eternia.
The art is serviceable. We get some decent action spreads,
but we also get a long-haired brunette Teela in a yellow jumper. One doesn’t
typically think much about comic letterers, but Stan Sakai drops an “alway’s”
on us.
This one’s not awful, but it isn’t particularly good,
either.
