Description

The long, dark, new pony episode drought is nearly at an end!  I, for one, probably wouldn't have weathered it nearly as well without the creation of the comic book series to keep my pony fix going over those many months between seasons.  I've really enjoyed the vast majority of them, as they've offered their own unique take on the show without wandering too far into unrecognizable territory, while skewing slightly towards an older fanbase without abandoning the traditional target audience in the process.

The best of the lot for me (so far) was the Rarity-focused Micro Series issue, where Applejack and the gang send their overworked friend off to a spa retreat run by Flax Seed and Wheat Grass, although Big Mac's epic two-issue quest for a nail in the regular series is way up there as well.  We've also gotten a glimpse at an epic battle that inspired the founding of the School for Gifted Unicorns, the returns of both the Nightmare part of Nightmare Moon (in Rarity form) and Queen Chyrsalis, a look at Shining Armor's and Cadance's teen years (along with the revelation of who actually writes the Daring Do novels...  It seems like we'll find out if the show matches the comic early this coming season), the many would-be loves of Big Mac, the backstory of Sunset Shimmer, and a variety of fun adventures for the whole cast. 

I'm hoping we'll be treated to both new episodes and new issues for a long time to come!
