This He-Man retrospective took place at the Double Punch Gallery in San Fransisco. Titled, 'I Have the Power,' this show featured all types of He-Man art.
With classic cartoons like the Jetsons, Transformers and GI Joe being remade into movies, He-Man fans are waiting to see he'll follow suit.
Based on this art show, I think there is still plenty of interest in the He-Man franchise.
