Capture the Comet Keeper is the 126th episode of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.
(Ink & Paint DVD booklet description: Upon the Lord of Destruction's command Two Bad kidnaps Zagraz, and takes him back to Snake Mountain. Skeletor hopes he and Zagraz can unite forces, allowing him to use the comets against Castle Grayskull. At Zagraz Mountain without their keeper, the comets spin out of control, causing destruction across Eternia. He-Man and Teela soon learn that Skeletor is behind Zagraz's disappearance. The imprisoned Zagraz begins to learn just what prompts Skeletor to be the evil being he is, and that he has no chance of escape by reasoning...)
Synopsis[]
Moral[]
Teela: "Some people think the only way to solve a difference is to fight. Skeletor, for example. His answer to every porglem is fight! He doesn't care who's right or wrong. He thinks that might makes right. Well, it doesn't. He-Man knows that. Even with all his power, he always tries to avoid fighting. Fighting doesn't solve problems. Fighting only makes more problems. See you soon."

Continuity[]
- Zagraz previously appeared in The Cosmic Comet and his character model was reused as the Gatekeeper in The Magic Falls.
- The sequence of the tower falling and He-Man catching it was first seen in Return of the Gryphon and when He-Man catches the Life Bringer in Journey to Stone City.
- The animated sequence of He-Man flipping over a large branch was based on a piece of animation from Filmations Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle and was previously seen in The Remedy.
Errors=[]
- When He-Man throws Skeletor over his shoulder, his scabbard and sword are missing from his back while they are present in the scenes before and after. Stranger still, the same scene is shown again during the moral Teela is giving, and this time the sword and scabbard are present.
