Which Skeletor Origin Do You Want To See in Masters of the Universe?

Over the years, we haven't really had a chance to see Skeletor's origin story fully fleshed out, but a new comic series from Dark Horse (Masters of the Universe: Genesis) seems to be finally bringing that to light. From the Skeletor backstories we've had over the years, which one do you hope the film goes with?

We've had Skeletor from another dimension, Skeletor first being Keldor, or Keldor and Randor actually being brothers and dueling for the throne, but there could also be a completely original origin story for the film.

I am kind of expecting it to be something like the Barbie movie, so i kind of am hoping for and welcome an out of cannon origin in this case

What did the last go at his origin from Dark Horse not cover? His favorite breakfast cereal? His first shave? It was never a franchise that needed every minute detail kept explicitly canon. That was an exercise in why adherence to canon is such a pain in the ass. That way lies Crisis addiction. Sometimes you just have to let the story move forward and stop going backward.

Personally I am a proponent of knowing someone's cereal preferences, even a villain like Skeletor. LET US HAVE OUR CEREAL DETAILS SOLOMON!
