Sad? Silly, Seth, that's not how you spell "awesome."

Ego's comic is still straight-up brilliant.

Anonymous said...

I feel like if you read the second one right after the first one, it kinda ruins the moment...

Derpy Pilgrim if somepony hasn't made a trailer for that yet it needs to be done. Also die all you people who post you know #1

Bosstone said...

I AM DEFEATED

"I love you mommy" broke me. :(

Roman500 said...

First comic is best comic.

Basharoonskis said...

That Scott Pilgrim parody was hilarious. Goes to show you don't need super amazing art skills to make a successful comic.

Saw the Ego one a while ago, still cried though D:

Stop giving me these mixed feelings of happiness and sadness!

Quills said...

Heh. Cuuuuuuuute.

And interwebz.

I baw'd. Then I squee'd. So cute.

Gummy said...

That first one was allot sadder then i first thought. ):

Reever said...

The 2 comics fit together in a chilling revelation, that the GMail could cause Ditzy to lose her job and in turn, her daughter.

d'awwww I remember seeing the first one in the artist training grounds. Happy to see it again.

twilightlover21 said...

Awww!!! Manly tears of awww were shed on this day

Valmir_R0yalGuArd said...

D'aaaaww that first one hit me where it hurt...

ZeldaFan777 said...

Anonymous said...

The first one, made me, really think of what ponies think of derpy. ;-;

Thesyn said...

I has a sad now...

Rauzu said...

Help her bake muffins you say? Atleast they're not making cupcakes. Truth be told? I squee'd

Chilliam said...

Wait Dinky is a unicorn.

Is she adopted?

RandomlyWeir said...

Now, my view of Ditzy has changed a lot. (yep, never called her derpy )

colt classic said...

Ponies need to treat derpy better.

The three faces I made throughout the first comic.

Then the second one seemed a bit awkward...

I've seen that first one before, but I enjoyed reading it again.

@RandomlyWeir

Yeah, Ditzy is something else. (Call her Derpy once in a while honestly, but prefer Ditzy.)

Flygon16 said...

Dammit, it made me cry then, and it made me cry now. It cannot be said enough: Ditzy is the best mommy. Ever. End of discussion.

Commodore Z said...

Confound these ponies, they drive me to tears...

Anonymous said...

Why has derpy become the subject of such tenderness as of late!? only luna is supposed to make people cry!

Anonymous said...

So amazingly cute.
Ditzy Doo is amazing.

Reever said...

Ditzy Doo is her real name but people call her Derpy Hooves to make fun of her.

I also have trouble believing that Ditzy could be a single mum. She's the most loveable character on the show.

DreadedCandiru2 said...

I think I recognized one of the demonic-looking silhouettes surrounding them when Dinky was talking about all the ponies playing 'Let's shit on the neighborhood retard': the Bearer of the Element of Loyalty. Remember all the times when she mistook honest confusion for a deliberate attempt to ruin her day? The lazy hot-shot with the big dreams and a bigger mouth is not a person with the patience or insight to see what the less fortunate have to struggle with.

Brevity said...

"Derpy" is the number one reason we need a novel. She is so easily cast as the crazy/klutzy/ultra-loser, I'd love to have an official take on who she really is. The way fans try to validate her life... I get sad :(

(fun fact- in episode 23 where the mane six get their cutie marks, "Derpy" appears at the sun raising in adult form (crazy eyes and all,) making her older than the 'six.)

Gudreen said...

#1 man, did I just walk into a kitchen where everyone's chopping onions....

#2 made me feel a bit better after 1

Anonymous said...

Cute comic, but the whole "mother" thing is something I don't agree with the fandom. Nor do I believe she's stupid.

Anonymous said...

I'm with Seth. SOmeone better post the happiest fucking Ditzy comic in existence right this instant before I drown in the man tears.

I like the idea of Ditzy being a loving mother. Can't wait for her appearance in season , so we actually get to know what her character is like, since she's everyones favorite background meme pony.

Anonymous said...

i fucking cried at the first one. and im 15 and listen to death metal.

Anonymous said...

I'm gonna tell my mom that I love her, right now.

Rekiara said...

I loved that first when when it was submitted for the ATG, and I still love it now!

Anonymous said...

Am I the only one who thinks the fandom is taking the "dinky" thing too far? :Scampers on soapbox: So she has a similar color scheme; ya know... wait, ima go right a fic about Octavia being the mother of some random filly since their colors look the same and see if it takes off.

If Derpy was a mum, why the hell was she in the "Best Young Flyers Competition"? Teen pregnancy? Give that stuff a break already. :Stepping off soap box now:

Anonymous said...

That first comic is SPECIFICALLY WHY I only think of Dinky as Derpy's SISTER! NOT HER DAUGHTER! *Activates manly sobs of sadness*

oconnorc said...

"Dude now I'm reading it. 'Dear Ms. Derpy it has come to my attention that we will be fighting soon. My name is Matthew pony-tel, bla-bla-bla-bla-bla. Fair warning, mono-e-mono, seven evil bla-bla'. This is, this is, this is. This is boring. Delete."

HayfeverTX said...

wow, the first comic really was fantastic. thank you for this.

Anonymous said...

Um. Are we..er..are all Bronies damaged goods? In some way?

Oxcenia said...

First one made me tear up. So sweet and sad. Doesn't matter if it's canon or fanon or if not everypony agrees with the characterization or mother-daughter relationship. It's a damn good piece of writing, and a excellently drawn comic. Bravo.

I'm gonna go call my mother now.

Bobbyzero said...

@Anonymous

Dinky really should have been Derpy's adopted sister all along...if only I drew a comic and planted the seed...

DJ Octavia said...

Awwww, that first comic... sad. :( If I find anyone making fun of Derpy, their plot is toast. >:(

The second comic is funny and cute. And Derpy saying "dude". XD

RandomlyWeir said...

@Oxcenia

And its made from the perspective of Dinky's innocency... which makes me even sadder...

This comic gives me reasons to hate ponyville

Anonymous said...

Is that first comic trying to demonize us for calling her derpy? WELL FRACK YOU!

Enfid said...

As I have commented in a fanfic entry, I don't like the way people refer to her as the (IMO) somewhat derogatory name Derpy. Worst part is, it's so widespread that I found myself using it, and I dislike that name.

Ditzy Doo sounds much cuter too.

Icehawk said...

The first comic is really sweet and endearing. I don't think that relationship would ever be canon, but it's still well written and works for the characters.

@Reever

1) The character is NOT officially named Ditzy, she's not officially named anything yet, but it's a lot more likely to become Derpy given greater prevalence of it and history within the fandom. Also I believe Lauren Faust drew some artwork of the character and named her Derpy in it.

2)You think "Derpy" is insulting bit "Ditzy" is not? The word Ditzy actually refers to her character as a whole and implies by definition that she is stupid. "Derpy" is just a cute sounding made up word that refers to her eye condition and says nothing about her character.

I'm on the verge of tears because of #1

Ego has the superpower to make anyone cry at will.

Anonymous said...

Confound you Ego!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brony Neumo said...

Wow. Right after a comic where we have Dinky making a very heartfelt and touching statement about how she is hurt by mean people making fun of her mother...

...you post a comic that essentially makes fun of her mother. Nice job Seth.

Luna said...

Wow, its been a while since I saw that first one.

And maybe the last one isn't us making fun of her, but Derpy making fun of herself. Maybe she's trying to tell us a joke. She s a postmare, she should know whether or not she has mail, not some new-fangled talking-picture box.

Princess B said...

I cried at the first one

jaayro said...

The contrast between the comments made me laugh.
Harder than I should of.

Deathaura40s said...

First one...so sad

Second one...was funny, then I remembered what Dinky said in the first and felt even sadder :(

nielsdejong said...

*Watches the first comic*

*distributes torches and pikes*

Alright bronies, who's with me to teach some "mean ponies" a lesson in friendship and magic?

Fasde3333 said...

@nielsdejong

Gimme that damn torch now.

oh god the first one made me cry.

Ashmonsterr said...

First one made me cry. And not the whole just a tear drop cry. I like sobbed. D': and the 2nd one made me feel better. :D

SuperGiantRobot said...

Oh THAT old thing. Welcome to about a month ago, guys.

Anonymous said...

First one was sad. The second one raises a question: how exactly does one type with hooves? :|

Probably best not to think about it.

Anonymous said...

I remember reading the first one a while ago... I read it again anyway though, and I still got tears in my eyes. :(

Sir Leadhead said...

dat mood whiplash

i recognize the first one, but it's still full of daww.

the second one lolol

M1Abrams said...

Now I feel really bad for Derpy....I don't want to pick on her anymore!

Anonymous said...

I've loved the first one since Ego first posted it to her dA page... for all of you gathering up pitchforks against the crowd of mean ponies, she pointed out on dA that the pictures are also Dinky's exaggerated filly POV, and even if only a few meanie pants ponies who are jerks to you (or your mum), when you're a little kid, it can seem like everypony's out to get you. 8(

Take that as you will.

Anonymous said...

In the first comic, the picture that said "I have mommy, and mommy has me." made me HHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGHHHHH so hard the neighbors heard it.

Ionnan said...

That was the first time ponies have ever made me tear up... and it was nice

I bawled like a baby

The first was very gripping. Simple yet very comeplex. Sad yet happy. Amazing work.

@Chilliam
Maybe her (rotten, no-good) daddy was a unicorn.

Matariel said...

Someone had better post a comic of one of the mean ponies being mean to Ditzy/Derpy, then in the next panel BAM! All the Bronies appear to defend her and shame the mean pony

It must be done!

Anonymous said...

second one got me to laugh.

blakestar15 said...

I actually missed the ditzy doo and dinky doo art and fandfics, thats what originally got me started on being a brony. Next to the newbie artist training ground and the lyra/bon bon comics.

Rockopoly said...

Daww, i thought it was soo cute!

BillyBatman said...

Derpy being my favorite pony... I can't stop crying...

Unknown said...

That first comic ;-;

really really well-done though. it was awesome. i dont think i can think about derpy the same way again, though. not that it's a bad thing or anything...

I still don't believe in the dinky thing.

As sad as this comic is I still DO NOT treat dinky doo as cannon.

I really hope that here affiliation with derpy doesn't become cannon in season two.
