[edit] Thulsa Doom/General Klytus

Note that the original version of the Kull character Thulsa Doom was a skull-faced sorcerer. Coincidence? I think not. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.147.140.206 (talk • contribs) 02:16, September 29, 2005.

Note how in the 1980 movie Flash Gordon, Flash looks a whole lot like He-Man and General Klytus looks so very much like Skeletor. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.12.116.69 (talk • contribs) 23:10, July 1, 2006.

[edit] Long Article

Article is disturbingly long and detailed, longer than many country's wiki pages. Trimming suggested. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Semiquaver (talk • contribs) 19:40, January 25, 2006.

Doesn't that tell you that Skeletor is more important than countries like Burkino Faso? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 194.83.70.7 (talk • contribs) 12:59, February 6, 2006.

I've noticed it needs a lot of touching up too. Run on sentences and the like. Hanzolot 05:23, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Power Sword

I thought that Skeletor's intitial motivation for fighting He-man was that he, like He-man, possessed a power sword, which combine with He-man's would be the key to opening Gray-Skull. This is why the action figures came with matching power swords that fit together. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 166.109.248.114 (talk • contribs) 20:59, March 12, 2006.

[edit] The Tale of Teela Mini-comic

I always thought that, originally, the implication in The Tale of Teela was that, in a way, Skeletor was Teela's father. Or as close as she was going to get. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.12.116.69 (talk • contribs) 19:03, July 31, 2006.

[edit] Skull Mask

Is it at all possible that Skeletor is wearing a skull mask rather than being a hugely buff male with a skull for a head? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Neopeius (talk • contribs) 21:03, August 5, 2006.

[edit] Unused Backstory

In an issue of the magazine Starlog, can't remember the issue but it was 1982, the original backstory was Beastman was the evil king and Castle Greyskull was his fortress maned by "Skeletors" his evil minions. I realize this never made it to production, but was an early concept mentioned in a "What's new in toys" type article before the release of the line. If I can find the issue I'll state the number, I don't think it needs to be added to the article, but I wanted to share it here.Davidac18643 05:46, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Apperance in Adult Swims Robot Chicken

This should be mentioned because in at least the modern culture seciton because its relavent. He appears in more then 1 episode also. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 206.166.49.31 (talk • contribs) 17:59, Novemver 1, 2006.

[edit] Status: Alive?

This made me laugh hysterically. How can he be considered alive? He's a) a cartoon character and b) a skull! Mattl 22:05, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
