A signed sketch by Frank Frazetta, circa 1964. "Bill" is Bill Pearson, who at the time was a friend of artist Wally Wood, and became publisher of the magazine Witzend when Wood stepped down from the position.

The creature depicted is a beast-man from the island of Indiana in Pellucid, Edgar Rice Burroughs' lost world at the core of the Earth.

Beast and Beast-Man is a fight I wanted to see ever since I was a kid. It still hasn’t happened, but maybe one day we’ll see an X-Men and Masters of the Universe crossover.

In the meantime, we can break down this battle here. When it comes to strength, who has the advantage? It’s actually probably somewhat even. I always thought Beast was strong, but he kind of gets overlooked because he doesn’t have the strength to compete with Rogue, Gladiator, and others in the X-Men comics.

Still, he’s considerably stronger than even a peak human. He can uproot trees, pick up a car, and bust through doors and other structures. Will that help him here? Maybe.

Even though Beast-Man is really presented as just a lackey for Skeletor, he is strong, too. He’s not He-Man strong, but Prince Adam, Man-At-Arms, King Randor, and others couldn’t overpower him. Beast-Man wasn’t lifting vehicles, but there aren’t vehicles on Eternia to lift.

Agility? Well, that one is easy. Beast wins. Beast-Man has more of a clumsy-looking walk and run. So, advantage Beast.

How about intelligence? Well, you see where this is going. Beast-Man has had a few moments that exceeded anyone’s expectations. He’s not as stupid as Skeletor makes him out to be. However, he’s certainly not at Beast’s level when it comes to smarts and strategy.

The one thing that Beast-Man has is the power to control animals and other beasts. That’s how he got his name. Could he use that power on Beast? It’s possible. I don’t think so, though. Beast is human / mutant. He’s not an animal like a dragon or shadow beast, like Beast-Man typically controls.

So, as much as they are kind of an even match, and share a name, the outcome is pretty clear.

Winner: Beast

One thing that’s cool about MOTU CGI is that they don’t use the phrase “evil” for the bad guys, rather they use “havoc”

The definition of havoc is “widespread destruction”. Evil is something that can be redefined and re-evaluated over the years. And chaos eventually resolves itself into a form of order.

Essentially, the bad guys’ ultimate goal is to raise hell of a grand scale.

@bisexualdaikaiju​ what do you think?
