This story was originally an action figure pack-in, introducing the fan-favorite Evil Horde characters. It was first bundled with a cassette tape featuring the actual voice cast from the Filmation cartoon. The book itself is beautifully painted by a young Bruce Timm, best known for his design work on Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series, and other DC animated shows of the '90s.
I've read a lot of these He-Man storybooks this year, and this one definitely ranks among the best—if only for the art alone. It's hard to track down a cheap copy, but fortunately, it's collected in the fantastic Mini-Comic Omnibus from Dark Horse, even though it's not exactly a comic. If you do plan to check it out, you'll find a rip of the cassette to read along with on Youtube.
