This past April (first reported HERE), Dark Horse Books revealed that they were adding a new hardcover to their already terrific library of Masters of the Universe books. It was called The Art of Masters of the Universe: Origins and Masterverse! Offered in a Standard and Deluxe Edition (featuring a portfolio of exclusive prints and…
The origins card art is sooo good so this is exciting. I wish they'd given us the female characters they'd teased on the cardbacks like Delora, Sultra, Sharella and Queen Marlena as figures, they would have been really cool additions to the line.
As happy as I am for more art books, especially for Origins and Masterverse.... I'm annoyed that it's coming out now, with presumably more waves still coming. Which means this book will be noticeably incomplete and outdated within months after the book is released. I'm wondering if they'll release a volume 2, or an edited re-released edition, or what.

I say the end is near with Origins and the cartoon figures will see it off just like the Classics. There won't be enough art for a volume 2.
This is so dope!! I always loved the fact that Mattel pays artists to do multiple motu paintings and they slap em on the box! What a way to show love and support to these artists and what better way to honor and immortalize these amazing pieces!! Can't wait. Man, it's expensive being a motu fan!!! 😀
@jaymeyerhoff I agree Knowgood. Not all of us collect the figures and this gives every fan a chance to own and appreciate this beautiful art for the rest of our lives. I hope the artists get paid extra for being in this book. They deserve it.
