OUR REVIEW:
A solid, slightly overstuffed episode where the "MacGuffin" that characters are chasing is the Grimalkin Statue, an artifact that contains a cool looking demon (which is dispatched too easily at the end). Webstor is a decent character addition, but Kittrina is the real star here. (7/10)
Comment, Review and Discuss below:
Tomorrow’s Episode is: “The Energy Beast”
The animation was better. I don’t remember if it lasts all season long but there was a noticeable bump in quality.
Good episode.
I’m betting at least 5 people out there became furries because of seeing this episode in their youth.
Is this one of the very rare times Adam turns into He-Man without the transformation sequence, it just cuts to the next shots?
Like Webstor. Weird yet fun voice.
Kittrina aka Proto-Catra is into Battle Cat and I’m sure many don’t know how to feel about that because y’know……
5 stars. Ripper episode and contains my favourite toy, Webstor! And he is presented as very competent. Fun episode, great writing, dangerous villans, fast pace. S2 off to a ripper start.
@mrskeletor I wanted to see more of Webstor’s Wind Raider with the spider legs.
Am I the only one who has a dirty mind about this pic? 🤣
