Ehy does he wear an iorn cross and was he a nazi?

>>93680002
That's teutonic cross. Which means he's of german ancestry like most of americans.

>>93680002
The cross is a symbol that comes from ancient times. Even the pagans had it.

In case of He-Man, according to the MOTU mythos, it's the symbol of the Starseed, the source of Grayskull's power.

Bit he rides a tiger and german tanks were called tigers.

>>93680157
Riding a tiger doesn't mean nothing like that. Many fictional barbarian characters like Kull, Beastmaster etc, have feline companies, much like He-Man. It's pointing out their barbaric origins, and their balance with nature.

It would be more nazi to let him ride actual general Sherman instead don't you think.

>>93680180
Or that their creators sympathised to nazi.

Nope nothing like that again. He-Man is a Conan/Kull ripoff, and Frazetta inspired as the very first designs testimony. If you ever saw before any Sword & Sorcery artwork , you would know that many times barbarians have been depicted alongside with tigers.

He-man isn't a rip off.

Yes he is. He-Man's first designs by Mark Taylor are speaking from themselves.

>>93680399
I still disagree.

Mark Taylor needed to make some changes afterwards, for not geive the idea that he is a clear rip off, but having He-Man to look like his own barbarian character.

>>93680433
So in the end it was changed enough to not be a rip off.

>>93680433
Burly man in loincloth is fantasy cliche. That's like saying every disguised vigilante is a Scarlet Pimpernel ripoff.

You could say so. The funny thing is that Conan looked similar to He-Man during the same period. Conan even had the same haircut with He-Man.
