Beast Man in the 2002 Cartoon Series
In the 2002 Masters of the Universe cartoon, Beast Man looks a lot like his classic version. However, he is shown as much bigger and has a hunched back. He is one of the largest villains in this series.
In the cartoon, Beast Man is very loyal to Skeletor. He never tries to take over Skeletor's place. In fact, Beast Man is the only one who truly trusts Skeletor as a friend. Skeletor even gives him a powerful weapon in one episode!
Beast Man can control all wild animals. But he sometimes has trouble controlling dragons, as seen in the episode "Dragon's Brood." He still uses a whip, but he also has a good relationship with his animal friends.
Beast Man's Origin Story
The cartoon doesn't explain where Beast Man came from. But a comic book series called MVCreations shared his origin story. It says he came from the Berserker Islands. There, he first met Keldor before Keldor became the evil Skeletor. Beast Man has been loyal to Skeletor ever since Skeletor saved his life and made him his servant.
Beast Man in the Classics Toyline
The MOTU Classics toyline started in 2008. The toys came with short stories on their packaging. These stories combined different parts of the Masters of the Universe history. They created a new, special story for the "Classics" world. There were also mini-comics and posters that added more to this new story.
Beast Man in Later Comics
The 2012 DC comic series, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, used a new idea. It said that there is a whole group of creatures called beast men. Beast Man is one of these creatures.
Beast Man in the Live-Action Movie
Beast Man is set to appear in the upcoming live-action He-Man movie. In the film, he will be a fierce and strong enemy. He will also have a special power: he can change his shape into any type of beast! This makes him a useful spy for Skeletor and a very tough fighter.
