“The Legend Begins!”

In "The Legend Begins!", He-Man journeys into the past with the Sorceress to witness the ancient origins of the Power of Grayskull, where he watches as the Snake Men attack a village—unseen and untouchable. When Skeletor arrives and allies with the ancient foes, He-Man is granted a rare chance to act, but only if he hides his identity behind a disguise. Written by Phil White and illustrated by Larry Houston, with inks by Bruce Timm and colors by Charles Simpson, this pivotal tale—featuring a cover by Houston and Timm—lays the foundation for the eternal struggle between good and evil on Eternia.

The Sorceress takes He-Man into the past to observe ancient legends. She does not allow him to intervene when the Snake Men attack a village because it could change the past. When Skeletor follows them and forms an alliance with the ancient Snake Men, He-Man is allowed to defend a village if he wears a disguise.
