In our first episode from Season 2 of “He-Man,” the Sorceress takes He-Man and his new robotic horse on a road trip to Dark Mountain, where they plan to square off against an inter-dimensional sorcerer who looks exactly like Alan Moore.
While they wait for Morgoth the Sorcerer to appear, Sorceress regales He-Man with a story about how she found some great wasteland real estate which granted her mystical powers to become a benevolent guardian of Eternia. We learn her true name, see the early Horde, meet a tavern coot, and enjoy some foreshadowing for future stories.
But let’s return to this robotic horse. We get to meet Stridor, a mighty steed that Duncan built to combat evil warriors and alert He-Man of imminent danger. But could there be more to this horse than anyone knew?
We’ll find out when our heroes test their mettle against the Sorceress’ oldest foe!
