I enjoyed this one. Leto sorta crushed it as Skeletor.
I did too. It's a lot like Odyssey really.
The He Man's cast is way more diverse...i mean, Man At Arms is a black dude now? wtf!!!
Historically, the chief weapons master of the Eternian Royal Guard was black. It's period correct. Also it turns out that Teela was adopted.

:shock:
Anyway, here's a schema Joyce sent to a friend to map out how the 18 chapters of Ulysses sit on top of the 18 books of The Odyssey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linati_schema_for_Ulysses

And he created another schema for another friend a year later: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_s ... or_Ulysses
Stop saying schema like anyone knows what that means, brainiac.
This is like one of the three times per year that my degree comes in handy, give me a fucking break.

I don't know why I said this. The more I think about it, the sadder it gets. That poor fella
I think Wolverine is sadder. He loves a woman who loves someone else and yet still entertains his love
That's a nice sob story, but what about poor Magneto? I believe his family was tragically killed in front of him? Oh and he's a Holocaust survivor as well.
