Comic: Tank / Don't Giggle at the GhostyCl

Source: Cartoonlion
Yah... That's a small technicality there Dash.  I wonder if the flying creatures in Equestria can walk on clouds though? Did pegasai evolve from birds? SO MANY MYSTERIES.

That first comic has a point.....

Bombedrumbum said...

Derpy, you have gone too far

Joey Wonton said...

But OT; a tortoise falling from the sky just makes me think Terry Prachett. Anyone?

Plus, I'm very glad that ponies are made from marshmallow in the second one. Of course Pinkie would have just fell thwough a hole in the tree anyway.

Guywithpasta said...

Ugh, even you, Seth? It seems to me that NOPONY really watched the "Find a Pet" Song! Just let me go screen-cap...

RaccoonBL said...

Pinkie...NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! :'(

Bombedrumbum said...

In "Find a Pet" it shows the birds on the clouds. Problem/Mystery solved.

~pkThunder said...

I'm impressed that Derpy cut down a tree with a hand saw

Dark Griffon said...

Well, Twi does have an easy cloud-walker spell in her Grimoire, so the Tank situation (once Rainbow Dash rescues him) is easily resolved. He'll just need regular recharges. :-)

As for the second, well, methinks Celestia herself is gonna have to put Humpty Dumpty together again this time...

Mojo said...

Tank is just so boss that he has the ability to walk on clouds the end.

Guywithpasta said...

@Seth:

Here, there are 10-11 cases that flying animals can perch on clouds (wasp is too tiny to see if perching)

omg... Derpy killed Pinkie

Trixie's Hat said...

Well, that second one was pretty... heavy.
*puts on shades*

RaccoonBL said...

Um guys, You're talking about BIRDS! We have no idea if a turtle can walk on clouds. All we know is if it has wings, it can walk on clouds.

jodyjm13 said...

The first comic is an example of classic comedy timing.

The second... seems more mean-spirited than silly, but maybe that's just me.

Dark said...

Cartoon physics saved Pinkie!! -twitch-

Dark Griffon said...

@Dark

I would say no, it didn't. Celestia's gonna have to clean up this mess.

Octavia said...

#1 Oh no, not Tank! lol Poor Tank. Quick RD, after him! As for pets walking on clouds. I guess you'd have to cast that spell Twilight gave everyone before. As for evolving from birds. It's also a theory of mine that Pegasus might have hallow or lighter bones than other ponies. So it may be plausible.

#2 Derpy killed Pinkie! I keep going between laughing and crying. D:

Travis Smith said...

#1 Saw that coming, that's why it should have been a Wolf, they are awsome

#2 if a tree falls in the Everfree forest and no one heard it, is it's Derpy's fault?

Masquerade said...

With his little helicoptermajig, I doubt Tank has to worry about falling through the clouds.

Guywithpasta said...

@RaccoonBL
I understand this, yet Seth still said that "I wonder if the flying creatures in Equestria can walk on clouds though?" Sure, all we know is that those specific animals can perch on clouds (insert idea that pegasus powers rubbed off of Flootershai during care).

Turt... Tortoises, not quite sure...

Bombedrumbum said...

@Masquerade what about fuel?

Bombedrumbum said...

Oh, right, magic............

Wierdplatformer said...

1. Pffffhahaha XD Poor Tank!

2. No, just no.

Flutterguy said...

It's much more plausible that a Pony evolved wings rather than a bird evolving into a completely new animal that resembles a pony. So no, Pegasi didn't evolve from birds.
TL&DR It's magic! I don't gotta explain crap!

ViewtifulSteve said...

#1 Still wondering how they're going to work around that. That helicopter-thingamajig can't run forever can it?

#2 P-Pinkie? You ok?... ;_;

rpgamer987 said...

Writers won't ever explain that loophole, and this is why we'll never see Tank again.

~pkThunder said...

inb4 the heli-backpack has a battery that holds magic. else make Rainbow Dash the new Celestia

Inkan1969 said...

Whoa, lots of morbidity in these comics.

Travis Smith said...

Wait, what of Tank's helicopter thing runs off of it's own kinetic energy, as long as it moves it stays powerd.
Still say it should have been a Wolf/ Flying Wolf

Jimperz said...

Why does Tank have to dwell in Rainbow's house necessarily? People have doghouses that are outside after all. Tank could have a nice little pond area beneath Dash's cloud home!

Silicas said...

@Seth: Birds evolving into pegasi? *facehoof*

#2 really made me laugh. Dat letter.

Silicas said...

@Travis Smith: "runs off it's own kenetic energy"

And I thought Seth butchered science with the whole birds thing.

I'm going to Hell for laughing at the second one. ;)

And this fillies and gentlecolts is why merchandise placement will ALWAYS fuck up good storytelling.

Caption Falcon said...

AND THE TURTLE WAS NEVER HEARD FROM AGAIN!

Vermillion Twilight said...

Pinkie is quite dead, as evidenced by the little black skull effect emanating from her squashed form lying motionless and pudding-like beneath the massive tree trunk. Obviously the thing left to do is mourn her passing as a friend, and anyway, let's face it, we all knew she was becoming unstable and quite nuts, even for her. It's okay, she's at peace now.

As for her slayer, Santa Clause Rules are in effect; you kill the fat man, you wear the suit. Now Derpy must join the Mane Six by taking the mantle of The Zany One. It is written.

Screwball becomes the next Derpy, Scootaloo is still a chicken, and all is once again right with Equestria.

@Travis Smith "Unless acted upon by an outside force" (friction) perpetual motion is impossible due to either friction, wind resistence, or both

jaxblade07 said...

For the 1st comic I said the exact same thing AT THE END OF THE EPISODE!

For the 2nd one thats just f*cked up

AlexanderC said...

What was Derpy doing in the Everfree Forest anyway?

Unknown said...

that was funnyer then shit

@Vermillion Twilight Here come the test results. "You are a horrible person." That's what it says. You are a horrible person. We weren't even testing for that.

Celestia said...

If we follow Pinkie Pie physics here pushing the tree off will make her pop back to normal size shocking everypony nearby.

And to answer the first one you can choose between:
a. Magic *snort snort*
b. Small house below Rainbows on the ground.

Homfrog said...

inb4 the death of Aeschylus

Dantes_Grill said...

umm... RIP... i guess...

Vermillion Twilight said...

@K4RN4GE

Actually, due to events shown in the latest episode 'The Mysterious Mare Do Well', I must retract my former statements. Her Pinkie-sense would have saved her.

Incidentally, 'Pinkie Pie gets killed by a falling object' fics, comics and PMVs are now banned.

KTS said...

1. Watch for falling turtles.

2.Pinkie gets killed by a tree doesn't she have Pinkie sense to warn her about falling trees.

Senior Waffles said...

#1 Lol, classic.
#2 Lol, well played tree and Derpy, well played!

Δ-zεrɸ said...

Umm, does anyone want to regard the fact that Tank's copter blade ran on yellow/golden magic, which I should point out is now the color of CELESTIA's magic. So yeah, it could be permanent or REALLY long lasting.
