I may be in the minority, but I sort of love the new Masters of the Universe DC has been putting out for the last couple of years. It's basically detached almost entirely from the continuity set up by past cartoons and comics, and has pretty much said, "gently caress it, let's just kind of go crazy".

It started with Keith Geffin writing it as a world where Skeletor won ( we later found out it was because of loving Orko after he got power from Hordak's skull), and from there has murdered off major characters, completely changed others (especially Teela), and has now come to the point where Etheria's armies have taken over Eternia. While it's pretty apparent the plot is sometimes being made up at the last second, the storyline has somehow remained surprisingly tight and fun.

Yeah, I saw the first issue of the new run has Teela as a snake-witch, and He-Man and She-Ra are leading the Rebel Alliance or something?

Tella has become the new sorceress, has taken control of the Snake Men (after it was revealed that King Hiss had murdered and replaced He-Man's father, Randor, then led the team into Hell), and has taken up residence in Snake Mountain, which is the home base of the rebellion against Hordak's armies. Also, at one point, Tella manipulates She-Ra into cutting He-Man's throat.

The comic is sort of bonkers and fun.
