Mattel and DC teaming up for He-Man/ThunderCats crossover

July 9, 2016 by Gary Collinson

The Power of Grayskull and The Sword of Omens are set to collide this October as DC Entertainment and Mattel unleash He-Man/ThunderCats, an epic crossover thirty years in the making!

The six issue series, which is set to get underway in October, will be brought to life by the writing team of Mattel Head Writer and Masters of the Universe Lead Creative Rob David and Supervising Producer Lloyd Goldfine alongside artist Freddie E. Williams II (Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

“The Masters of the Universe and the ThunderCats are both global phenomena, beloved by millions. Teaming them up for one enormous story will prove to be a publishing event that fans simply cannot miss. This is something that transcends both comic book and pop culture,” states DC Editor-in-Chief Bob Harras.

In his eternal desire to destroy the mighty ThunderCats, the evil Mumm-Ra quests for a weapon that can rival the legendary Sword of Omens: He-Man’s Sword of Power! But his dimension-spanning scheme launches a cataclysmic crisis that will, for the first time ever, unite Lion-O, Cheetara, Tygra, Panthro, WilyKit and WilyKat with He-Man, Battlecat, Teela, Man-At-Arms and the rest of the Masters of the Universe.

He-Man/ThunderCats #1 is set for release on October 5th.
