Within 24 hours of Kevin Smith’s new animated Netflix series “Masters of the Universe: Revelation” debuting online, the He-Man show appears to have been “review bombed,” with fan reaction veering wildly from the largely positive critical reaction.

As of writing on Saturday afternoon, “Masters of the Universe: Revelation” has a 94% Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes from 36 critics and yet a 29% from more than 1,700 fan votes.

So what gives? YouTubers and angry “fans” on Twitter are saying that “Kevin Smith lied” or that the show is a “bait and switch” in an attempt to make the show “woke.”
