The final issue of the Revelation comic book is out today, Teela's powers awaken and she cures Randor, so the gang have to wipe her memory once she starts asking questions, towards the end of the issue, they appear to be teasing some shadowy figure that is tied to the 'end of the universe', looks like a female. To be continued in the show I guess
Another interesting detail in the Revelation comic is Evil-Lyn knew Adam was He-Man before the show started

So someone on He-Man.org got a chance to preview the second half of Revelation.
The tone is more or less consistent with the first half, but Teela is more likeable this time, though there is a 'weird retcon' made to a long-established MOTU relationship that is also absent from the CG Netflix show.

Happy to know Orko isn't dead. Series isn't as cynical as I thought.

Volume two is in the books, and it's...not altogether terrible, still has issues here and there, No, He-Man and Skeletor are'nt the main rivalry, Teela and Evil-Lyn are. Traditional He-Man only returns to the fold in the closing two episodes, and Orko's grand return is kind of undermined by a lack of screen time, but at least the mystery of Teela's parentage is cleared up in the simplest way...Duncan actually is her real dad, Take That! Fisto, and they even find a way for Teela to override the bond with the castle so Adam can be himself
Oh, and the big tease for season two is the Hoard

Happy to know Orko isn't dead. Series isn't as cynical as I thought. The show is still being treated like it's Star Wars: The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker by general audiences and the critics. What difference does it make?

For me, the best crack pairing in recent memory has to be Lyn and Orko.
BTW, Clownfish are being salty little b*tches about the second volume, but that's only because they're butthurt over Kevin and others abusing them. Frankly, with the way this half turned out, they deserve to be miserable. It's not woke at all, and Adam and Teela work in tandem to overcome Skeletor and Evil-Lyn. I've seen some complain about He-Man's "it's not about us" line, but in context it works so well as a statement about the supporting cast being just as important to the success of the brand, as well as a dig at the alt-right fans who insist He-Man have all the screen time.

I was skimming through that prequel comic out of curiosity & there does seem to be some things to work off for a Part 3 (it'll happen). Primarily issue 2 where Skeletor tells his alleged origins & The Evil Horde is in it so maybe something here will be the basis.

CBR seem to believe that Teela and Andra were supposed to have a romance and that it got 'nixed' www.cbr.com/masters-of-the-universe-axes-teela-andra-romance/Adam and Teela as an endgame has never been realized before in animation even if it's happened in the comics and the original spin-off bibles. We were well overdue representation for them in this medium It's also a case of them seeing what they want to see, at no point did Andra ever come across as anything but a window into the world for the casual viewers and became increasingly useless as the series progressed because her purpose was served. Teela's whole deal the entire show was in figuring out how to grieve for her best friend and process his betrayal of her trust while learning to forgive him and come to understand his need for secrecy, the whole time, she is clearly in love with him and noone else.

Juts finished Revolution. Not bad. The show Revelation should have been.
