THE STORY SO FAR: Kobra Kahn had escaped from his cell at the Eternian prison of villainous henchmen, and was last seen making his way through the Swamps of Enchantment possibly a secret route to Snake Mountain only he'd know. Adam and Teela were already out on the Evergreen Forest when they heard Duncan's alert and Teela insisted they get to him first since they were closest, much to Duncan AND Adam's protests. As they flew over the terrain on their wind raiders they spotted Kahn in a clearing on the run, but so did he, and with snake-like agility he leaped up to the canopy in efforts to firing his acidic venom at them, damaging Teela's raider she lost control barrelling down for the swamps. Adam took the opportunity to land elsewhere and transform into He-Man before going after Kahn. He-Man could already hear the sounds of some kind of struggle near by and made haste to assist Teela only to find her besieged by some new friends Kobra Kahn seem to have made in the swamps, "putting her in a bit of a bind are you fellas' " He-Man chided as he went to pull them off Teela. Only his attempt at a timely rescue would be interrupted by Kobra Kahn, whom until now was hiding out of sight as he quickly knocked His Power Sword from his hand before he could react, He-Man would next attempt to simply lift the snake man overhead and launch him out of the way, only Kahn had another idea as his hood opened up spraying his sleep miasma right in His face. As He-Man quickly turned away trying not to inhale, he squinted to see Teela becoming a little too acquainted with the serpents' powerful coils...

Finalmente!!! This ten-ton gorilla of a project is done! And I feel an invisible weight literally falling off my back when I saved the final draft last night at 2am and again today as I'm posting it for the WORLD to see . I went with the updated title "Snake Pit" after the Mike Young Production episode of the same name, as it would look if it were a classic cover illustration like Earl Norem would have done (or at least me trying to re-create his style ). My only regret is not drawing He-Man's Power Sword but I just wanted this to be done with and move on to other projects, but my back-story explains his sword bring MIA pretty well I suppose ! I'll be moving the earlier version to the drafts section, thanks to everyone who commented and ed on it and looked forward to the final, your wait is over LOL! All comments welcome of course !
