Got the Junior novel and flipped through it. It's a light and breezy telling of the first 2 acts of the film that ends at He-Man confronting Skeletor at Snake Mountain.
There's dialog from the actual film as heard in the trailers and from CinemaCon reports and even as told for a Junior novel it's exciting!
@dgsimo Does it show moss man in any of it? Also, can you share some of the pictures from the book?
There's only 8 photos and it's just promo photos of the characters and short bios. Moss Man is mentioned fighting with the Royal Guards when Skeletor invades.
@dgsimo I was scared they cut moss man, my favorite character. 😮💨
In the other drawn kids books hes featured!
Weird that Moss Man is in the movie, but he hasn't been shown in any trailers and no casting announcement was ever made. Makes me wonder which other characters might show up as a surprise that we aren't aware of yet...the biggest no-shows at the moment are Stratos and Mer Man...

Moss Man was announced last year by Stephen Adentan who is playing him. He even gave a bit of a tease of the prosthetic work and molds being done.
The junior novel makes mentions of Hover Robots and Shadow Beasts too which haven't been seen so seemingly there's a lot to discover!
