Timey Wimey Spector Bullcrap!

Neitlich-sama is at it again...Now we get how Sir-Laser-Lot was supposed to die and the way Spector saves the day.

Spector was there to infiltrate Grayskull's Preternia MOTU team, become a trusting member of the group and therefore befriend Sir Laser Lot to convince him to come forward in time to train He-Man's son Dare as the new MAA. Together Spector and Laser Lot arranged a plan based on Spector's future knowledge of Sir Laser Lot's heroic death - sacrificing himself into an active volcano to save the planet. Spector arranged to time port in right before Sir Laser Lot hit the lava, hence pulling him into the future without changing his fate in the past. Grayskull and all his MOTU would continue to assume Laser Lot died in the Volcano saving Eternia (by placing a magic crystal inside that cooled the eruption) and Sir Laser Lot's place in history would remain unchanged (from actually dying in the Volcano which is what happened "the first time"). He could now come to the future and help train Dare and have further adventures without affecting the time stream (a very unique situation which the Time Agents spent a long time researching to pull off).

After the FUBG, Spector ported back to the future (leaving Grayskull and his men to assume Spector perished on the field of battle). He would then time port back to Preternia 5 months later to carry out the plan outlined above with Sir Laser Lot. Hence Spector's line in the mini comic refers to completing the initial part of the plan; having made contact with Laser Lot and convinced him to take part in the second part of the plan.
Why does this sound familiar?

Holy crap! Eric Northman is trying to stop Loki from being the Crow? FOCUS!!!
Is Neitlich ripping off Star Trek?  He was called out on it on the He-Man.org forums and here's the Toy Guru's reply:
Actually that is one of the reasons I wanted to spell it out. When I went to see ST and saw that scenes I thought "wow, that is darn close to the whole SLL/Spector story". Figured since there is no animated series to spell out this detailed of an adventure, and with the opening to the new ST being a very similar story, best to get this out there quick before someone else comes along and tells the same story too! A case of minds thinking alike and all I guess! (not that it was that complicated/original or brilliant of a scenario)

As for SLL being named King He-Man's MAA, he was chosen as the best candidate in all of history. Duncan is long dead (see 3rd mini comic) and Clamp Champ is retired his family by this point (his wife was pretty firm he give up the job after there first child was born, hey can you blame her?) So King He-Man helped arrange for the best candidate to be brought to help train his son etc...

I'd post a picture of bovine fecal matter, but that would be a bit crass... I am led to believe that this is pure and unadulterated... you know...

The thing that bugs me is how conveniently close is to the whole Star Trek Into Darkness Scene... So, if he had seen something else we could've had a different scenario?


Replace that with Spector, Laser-lot and a two-seater battle ram

But we're not done!!!


We still have the whole second paragraph to deal with...
So, King He-Man needs a Man-at-Arms cause Mrs. Clamp Champ made her husband quit... (I now kinda want a Mrs. Clamp Champ...), Duncan is dead... Sir-Laser-Lot is dead. He has been for about 49XX years. So He-Man chose of ALL THE PEOPLE IN THE PLANET OF ALL TIME some dude from 5000 years ago? Aside the obvious Geoff Johns made it and TG is a fan of Johns connection, this doesn't make a lick of sense! The correct answer to Who He-Man would pick as his Man-at-Arms was, is and forever will be DUNCAN!!

Seriously, that's like the US Government picking Attila the Hun as the Head of the DoD...
