Rarity's Mid-Death Crisis The realm of Equestria is filled with countless tales, as varied as its countless candy-colored equine inhabitants. They lead a nearly limitless number of possible lifestyles.

One might be a stoic cellist, bearing the misfortune in life of having already seen roughly twenty-three other mares looking exactly like her, barring coat or mane colors. She might be wondering why on earth they all look the same. Were they all like her, or was she like all of them? This, in turn, leads her to question the very nature of her existence and wonder if she is, in fact, a figment of their imaginations. She ultimately decides that the best course of acti

Important News on the MLP ComicIt looks to be pretty official, according to our editor, that the MLP comic has been pushed back two weeks to Nov 28 for street release date.
Before anybody gets upset (like one jerk on Twitter did), keep in mind the scope of this production: This is not a fanmade comic as some seem to think it is: This is a fully licensed comic book from a major Comic publisher done in cooperation with Hasbro. It is also one of the most highly anticipated comics for the entire fall/winter schedule. As such, we'd rather do it well than do it fast.
The orders for this book have far exceeded what was first anticipated, so a little more padding in the schedule is going to help to ensure the product can meet the demand
I also want to remind everyone: I am NOT The distributor/publisher... I just draw it. You cannot purchase the book directly from me. Here's some ground I've covered a number of times, but I keep getting asked... so here we go:
1. WHERE IS IT SOLD? This will be sold along all the other comics

don't worryseasons, there are many of them, some of them shorter than others, perhaps for special reasons, to be followed by other long seasons.
seasons.
many seasons.

Tomorrow we will be celebrating the rather trifling anniversary of the day I launched my D.A. account. We'll save the introspection, retrospection, and circumnavigation of that event for tomorrow, as today I feel the need to speak to an issue I see arising in the fandom.
I've done my best not to be controversial in this fandom. I've had real trouble in other fandoms I've been a part of over the years, and I really don't want to start any flame wars or cause any friction with anyone in the fandom.

I think I can be excused for trying to untangle it with the one and singular journal entry I've made in my year that can be construed as "whining".
The following journal uses language that you're not used to hearing from me, and deals with a subject that requires the discussion of anatomy and reproduction and t

"When you first came out onto the stage, you described your act as a 'unique, one-of-a-kind experience' and you've certainly lived up to that. But, if I were you, I would add 'appallingly dreadful' to that description. Sorry, it's a 'no' from me."

"It's a 'no' from me as well."

"Your act had so much potential. I hate to do this, but I have to go with 'no' as well."

But the real chain...the real thing that he used to keep us under hoof was fear.

Fear of his wrath. Fear of making one wrong move, turning right when he wanted us to go left. Fear of even speaking in his presence. Fear of death. Fear of a fate worse than it. Fear of his power to make the even worse nigh

Chapter 1

A set of double doors slammed open, casting only a glimpse of light into the pitch black room. A man, skinny and frail, was shoved through the light, falling onto his chest in the darkness. He quickly sat up, looking back in time to see the last trace of fluorescent light disappear as the doors closed.

"Do you know why you are here, Mr. Bowing?" A deep voice boomed through the room's darkness; the man's body began to shiver, unsure where the menacing voice came from.

"Uh, I'm, uh, not sure sir," the man stuttered.

The news broke today that I will be doing 6 of the 8 different covers for issue 1 of MLP:FIM! These 6 different covers will each feature one of the Mane 6 prominently, with guest appearances by other characters as well. All 6 covers interlock to form one giant scene!
Worried about not being able to find all 6 covers? Then you can order the BOXED SET! Here's the article on Bleeding Cool, along with a slight peek at the Applejack cover!

CONVENTION APPEARANCES CONFIRMED! Yes, I will be selling original art, prints, and doing con sketches at each show.

Hi there

That is absoulutely amazing, I'm looking forward to see the comics... but unfortunately I don't live in US, so there is some way to preorder them, and then send the article to a mailbox (some companies don't do that though). Would be a way to the international bronies like me to buy them without have to go to the US XD Thank you so much in advance, and good luck with your health issue

Just a quick heads up for those that want to pre-order the first issue or the box set, but don't have a local comic shop near them; The Midtown Comics website currently has issue one for only $1.99 (if you advance order) and the box set for only $16.24.
Their standard shipping (Economy Shipping) is only $4.99, so you're basically saving 3 bucks on the box set either way.

Excellent! thanks for the info!

~Roo-Gryphon Aug 22, 2012 Hobbyist Artist

where do i acquire this online

*andypriceart Aug 22, 2012 Professional Traditional Artist

It will be available for Online download when the books are released in November, on IDW's website

~FirestormDangerDash Aug 22, 2012

I agree with this. Comic store don't exist on this part of the planet.

~DuplexFields Aug 21, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

Ordered the boxed set from my local comics store.

(Plug: Comics Warehouse in Albuquerque is the best comic store in town. They're cool with it if you just go in to read continuity, as long as you buy anything.)

~CKlein07 Aug 21, 2012

So, of the two you didn't do, one is a one-in-ten special and the other's for ordering from IDW? Does that mean I would be guaranteed to get all 8 if I ordered 10 from IDW? Is there a cheaper way to go about collecting all 8? This is starting to sound expensive...

=maxmontezuma Aug 21, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Is there any way to get my hooves on them when I live in germany?

~PinkieSwirl Aug 21, 2012 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Good question

Oh and I hope you get the stone out somehow
