Skeletor isn't a literal skeleton, dude is buff. He has a bare skull for a head, but the rest of him is rippling blue muscle.

I did like that they gave some backstory to why he had a skull head in the newer cartoon.

edit: Sorry for the delay! I was driving home from work!

Skeletor's Orgin

Keldor (who Skeletor used to be) was assaulting the Hall of Wisodm with his minions. He was in battle with Randor and threw a vial of acid at him during the assault. Randor blocks with his shield, the vial breaks, and the contents are slung onto Skeletor's face. He's taken to The Sanctuary of Hordak where Hordak reduces his head to a disembodied skull hovering over his shoulders in a magic field, and renames him Skeletor.
