Netflix is nowhere near slowing down when it comes to its vast amount of content on the streaming platform. Considering that another streaming platform, Disney+, has taken over and become the destination for the most streamed series, Netflix has to work double-time to keep their customers happy. Comic Book now reports that Netflix is welcoming a new series to its platform coming from Mattel, called He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.
The new show will be in addition to the 2D-animated Masters of the Universe: Revelation by Kevin Smith coming from the original Masters of the Universe.

In the end, who will become Master of the Universe?"
