Why He-Man and the Masters of the Universe’s Evil-Lyn Change Is the Character’s Best

When Netflix decided to reboot the He-Man franchise, fans were stunned to learn it’d be via two very different series. Sadly, the streamer canceled a He-Man movie, but the cartoons are alive and kicking. Kevin Smith oversaw Masters of the Universe: Revelation in July 2021, with He-Man and the Masters of the Universe coming out just a few months later. The former took a grittier approach to life on Eternia, while the latter was more comedic and for kids.Interestingly, Evil-Lyn was a prominent member in both series, proving to fans how underrated she was as a witch. She played both sides, though, manipulating Skeletor into thinking she was loyal while plotting to steal power for herself. But while the two shows did feel like it was rehashing the same arc with her, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe’s Season 3 finale stunned nostalgics with a huge twist confirming this series will have the best version of Evil-Lyn moving forward.To process the change Evil-Lyn endures, one must understand the villain’s roots. She’s been a staple in every cartoon, even the 1987 movie, played by Meg Foster. Evil-Lyn was introduced into the Masters of the Universe toy line in 1983 as the Evil Warriors needed a female presence. She was shaped as the nemesis of Teela. In time, she’d be tinkered with and refined as a witch trying to stop the Sorceress from helping Prince Adam at Castle Grayskull.RELATED: Masters of the Universe: Revolution Can Fix a Controversial Arrowverse Couple
