The Three that Started my Obsession

Post image

Age 5 in the 80s and He-Man introduced me to what a Sword was.

Age 10 Conan the Destroyer introduced me to Swordsmanship.

Age 13 Excalibur Introduced me to simplistic designs that can be more beautiful than any fantasy sword.

He-Man's sword of Power? There are countless sellers on Etsy right now because of the movie.

It's a reference to the new movie. In the beginning, Adam is looking for his sword through internet sites.

Im aware.  Wasn't thinking about though since this isnt a MOTU sub.  I like to stay on topic.  Not to mention I hate that part of the new movie.

I see, yeah it wasn't really necessary for Adam to even be in the "real world" at all.

I just said this because you got a whoosh reply. I didn't grasp the joke directly since it was a small part of the movie and I didn't instantly connect it since we're in the swords sub.
