However He Man's old enemy Skeletor followed him to the future and allied himself with the Mutants to wage a new war against all that is good.
After the previous He-Man series, and the spin off She-Ra, a new toy line was developed which this time sent He-Man into the future. The animation was very much improved on the new adventures of He-Man, the storylines more detailed and the continuity vast, there was even an episode where Skeletor won! He-Man was seperated from his old friend on Eternia, although he still communicated with the Sorceress, and Teela once visited him in the future, there was also a cameo from Man At Arms in one episode, although it was not the real Man At Arms but an illusion created by Flogg. The Series only ran for one season of 65 episodes in which He Man battled the evil Skeletor and tried to thwart his plans for conquering Primus.
In England, they made the comic book series based on this show.
