Last-Minute Beefcake!
It seemed wrong to let a Beefcake Week pass without paying homage to one of the classics.
And have I have a doozy for you! From Marvel's Masters of the Universe 8!
Let's add up all the elements shall we? We have:
1. nonstandard costume! (underwater gear! And flippers!)
2. bondage! (It's a He-Man comic, so pointing that out is like pointing out the frequency of Superman encountering Kryptonite or Hal Jordan getting laid.)
3. villain who enacts said bondage through embrace (I don't think that's what Mr. Rogers meant...)
4. with really long tentacle like arms. (The better to squeeze you with, my dear)
5. Let's not overlook that slightly phallic looking missile thing (I have no idea what that is.)
6. AND the gratuitous shooting of the bad guy in the crotch. (And for the record, that's a harpoon gun.)
And that, ladies and gentleman, is why He-Man is a legend. Hah.

Wow! That lizard guy is HOT! Oh...you mean He-Man? Well, he does wear a furry loincloth, which is always fun.

So he's doing the bad guy like Willem Dafoe got it in the Spider-Man movie? He-Man is HARD CORE.
Wait, that didn't sound right.

Given the blond hair and color scheme of the costume, my first impression after a split-second glance was that He-Man was Power Girl. :^/

The "Philac thing":) is He-Man's air tank, Rigged that way to also provide a speed assist: i.e. underwater rocket. Also probably drawn that way to make drawing the tentacles easier.
And for the love of God quit enjoying #6! Just as I know nothing of birth-pains, you ladies can not know the agony of being racked by anything.
