The (possible) predecessor to He-man, this other 'barbarian' with a magical sword starred in this Filmation cartoon before anyone had heard of He-man.
Like He-man, Blackstar was a muscle bound sword wielding hero on the planet Sagar and defended it against the evil Overlord. Though I remember the show to be very entertaining, little remains of this great cartoon nowadays, nor does anyone seem to remember it.


DVD Information

Blackstar will actually be released on DVD in the (near) future due to a deal BCI has closed with Entertainment Rights. Read the details at TVShowsOnDVD.
