Is Skeletor a white guy or black guy?

[Gary Mitchell]

I never understood why Keldor's skin was blue considering he was Randor's brother (uncle?).

He had an unfortunate accident at the Ty-D-Bowl factory.

Half-brother. I do sort of wish this point had come out eventually in the Mike Young series.

He-Man has the potential to have such an awesome and epic history. I wish someone would spend a shit ton of money to develop it.

I would love a Peter Jackson He-Man trilogy.

Soo now that, that's settled, what skin color was Mum-Ra?

I'd pay to see it!

 

[TheMasterOfOrion]

I never once thought of him in terms of race I always thought of him as just 'Skeletor'

 

[WendellM]

"Skeletal American" is the preferred nomenclature.

 

[Aragorn]

Existentially challenged.

 

[The Mirrorball Man]

I would love a Peter Jackson He-Man trilogy.

I'd love to see David Lynch's movie adaptation of "Jem and the Holograms".

 

[Davros]

White Bones
Black Heart

 

[The Badger]

He was white on one side of his body and black on the other.
Trouble is, I'm not sure which.

 

[Mike Farley]

Skeletor is a BLUE man and proud of it. And he's offended that you marginalized his race. Just like The Man--always comin' down on people of bright color.

He also dreams of a world where he is judged not by his hideous, skinlesss skull, but by the content of his character.

White Bones

Yellow bones, must be the tap water at Snake Mountain.

 

[EnsignRicky]

I don't think he ever had skin, why else would his parents name him Skeletor? Of course that muscular body kinda adds to the confusion. Maybe he was blue, unless he's wearing tights.

 

[RoJoHen]

I always thought he was yellow. Besides, I didn't think he ever had skin; Why else would his parents name him Skeletor?

They didn't. His real name is Keldor. He became Skeletor when he pulled a Two-Face and burned his face off.

Wouldn't that more logically make him Skulletor?

Yeah, I did a quick edit when it dawned on me that he had a fairly normal body. What you say makes sense, my He-Man knowledge only goes back to watching the old filmations after school many moons ago.

 

[MeanJoePhaser]

During the 80's I was never sure if that blue covering him was his skin or a unitard or what. Not until MIKE YOUNG productions did they answer that. Actually, the 80's Masters of the Universe movie made it clothing.

My name's Skeletor Tiberius Kirk!

 

[Mr. Adventure]

I always liked that Skeletor was never concerned about whatever the fuck he was, never any stories about how he's jealous of He-Man for being human or whatever, at least not in the Filmation shows.

 

[Garibaldi O'brien]

Great. I've just learned from scanned the thread that Skeletor "Tiberius" Kirk has blue bones. Thank god he was wearing tights.

Wasn't he white in the movie? Or is that not part of the canon. Is only his original mold color the proper shade of blue? How badly has the home value of that castle been hit in this down economy? Someone needs to interview him.
