In April DC announced to many fans delight that they were going to be doing an all-new ‘He-man And The Master Of The Universe’ title (don’t worry it’s not part of the New 52…whew) and starting yesterday they would be producing a digital-first comic book.
The series would be one-shots of characters by various creators. The first of them being a character that Geoff Johns created when he was eight years old…Sir Lazer Lot. The character will even be getting an action figure that we will see debut at San Diego Comic-Con.
“I’ve been a huge fan of HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE since I was a kid, so it’s cool to write a story for this new series — not to mention teaming up with Howard Porter and John Livesay, my old FLASH partners in crime,” stated Geoff Johns. “And to create an all-new character that will become an action figure – Sir Laser Lot — it’s beyond fun. I’m going to buy like 100 of them.”
The digital series will debut new chapters twice a month on Saturdays. The second chapter (7/14) is written by Mike Costa with artwork by Jheremy Raapack and it tells the story of He-Man’s most trusted companion, Battle Cat. The third digital chapter (7/28), written by Kyle Higgins with artwork by Pop Mhan, is an adventure with the captain of the Eternia guard, Man-At-Arms.
