In the
King Grayskull's character design was originally an early prototype for He-Man himself.[2]
Although Grayskull eventually fell before Hordak's magic, he was able to preserve his powers inside the sword, so that one day his descendants could reclaim the power and call upon Grayskull's name whenever evil threatens the peace of Eternia. Grayskull's spirit remains hidden away deep inside the castle bears his name.[3]
Masters of the Universe: Revelation (2021)
In the 2021 Masters of the Universe: Revelation, King Grayskull was the first champion of Eternia and the namesake of Castle Grayskull. He is encountered in Eternia's heaven-like afterlife, Preternia; he provides guidance and support that allows the main characters to return to Eternia. His character design closely resembles his 2002 appearance, save that he is black, a change made in part to make him more visually distinct from He-Man.[4][5]
