Masters of the Universe #2

The second chapter of DC's 1983 Masters of the Universe mini-series promises high-stakes Eternian drama with its story titled "The Key to Castle Grayskull." George Tuska's pencils and Klaus Janson's inks deliver a striking cover: He-Man and Skeletor stand side by side before the towering stone battlements of Castle Grayskull itself, a glowing Power Sword thrust prominently between them, while Skeletor grips his sinister staff — an uneasy pairing that hints at something unusual afoot. It's a genuinely compelling visual that makes issue three feel a long way off.
