Seriously Sweetie Belle, just pick up a mic and start singing already.  These CMC drive me nuts!

I really like that Twilight Sparkle drawing style in the second one.

The puns... they burns us.

Jelfes said...

I thought I just missed something in #1, but I don't think I did... not really sure what to say about it, except maybe wat.

Celestia said...

#1 Hehe, Oh Sweetie belle.

#2 I'll have you know that was quite cold.

Jelfes said...

@Jelfes Oh, never mind, didn't read the newspaper title.

Discord said...

@Celestia

you should know by now to expect the unexpected

Harwick said...

I love the snowball to Celestia's face so much. Sorry, Princess.

Bullets said...

Haha, both were great. :3

#1 This was just one of the crusaders teaming up with Pinkie Pie. I don't know if I'd welcome or fear a collaboration between all of them.

#2 Oh man. Princess Celestia definitely must not have seen that one coming. Ouch!

Knux said...

"Dear Princess Celestia,
Today Pinkie Pie taught me how to make SNOWBALLS!!
Your fateful student, Twilight Sparkle."

pmcollectorboy said...

Dragon mail snowball. They should so totally do that in the show.

CyberPony said...

twi's now thinking with portals.

ChaosDX1 said...

SNOWBALL!

Hahaha, win.

CTVulpin said...

Snowball! That made me laugh.

Octavia9th said...

SNOWBALLS!

We missed a snowball fight in Winter Wrap Up, so I sincerely hope we get to see one soon.

#1: That was random and kinda funny, I always love random comics.
#2: Sometimes your mailbox powers can be used for fun.

Hey Tia... Guess what : it's white, liquid and all around your face... [troll]

twohuman said...

I've seen a construction site, engine train, and a siren. But I don't think their technology is advanced enough to have an iPad! Seeing ponyville obtain so much technological stuff is like reading the fanfic "gaming ponies" or whatever it was called. The one with the ponies playing xbox and stuff!

Firleycat said...

"When I grow up, I wanna be Toast!"
"Sweetie, NOOOO!"

pmcollectorboy said...

Fluttershy:*in Canterlot* Um... P-Princess C-Celestia? Um...What's soaking wet and clueless?

Celestia: ????

*crackle* *poof* POW!

Note: Your face!

Floof Cat said...

Sweetie Belle should have become a bowl of burnt bubbling liquid...

Bobbyzero said...

Article on Ipad said Twilight is Best pony...Win.

pmcollectorboy said...

Newspaper on the ground reads: Pink menace with snow cannon!

We're screwed.

pmcollectorboy said...

Pinkie Pie: Hey guys! I modified my party cannon to shoot snowballs now! And look how much bigger I made it! This baby can shoot boulders the size of Mount Rushmare!

Pinkie: *aims cannon at Dragon Mountain*

Twilight: Pinkie! What are you...?

Rainbow Dash: Run.

Octavia said...

#1 Lmao. And then Sweetie Belle was toast. I guess her special talent is being toast. lol Actually, she looks like a Sweetie Belle sandwich. I wonder what ingredients she has. o_O

#2 Haha, oh Twilight. "Today Pinkie Pie taught me how to make snowballs!" Much to the dismay of Celestia. :P

Jebediah Oldenheimer said...

1 And then the pigeons came after her, the end.

2 lol

Timber said...

@twohuman why not? They have concrete dams that I'm going to assume are hydroelectric. Why not iPads?

crris14 said...

1. I dont get it

2. LOL...everybrony should put artwork on this site because on deviantart it takes like 5 minutes just for me to load a comic since i have a slow phone but ill manage

Dantes_Grill said...

1st: from pony to bread... what will Rarity tell their parents?
2nd: pow right in the kisser!

frith said...

Inkydonkey's comic is great! I especially like that Princess Celestia is drinking out of her sister's "#1" mug. 8^D Is it Inkydonkey's Discord that was used by the Hub for the Naughty vs Nice round robin? These Tumblrs confuse me.

frith said...

@twohuman I think comics, as a medium for social commentary, cast a wider net than fanfiction. The iPad is a wink at the "there's a pony for that" advert all the while making a pun on the term "toast". If this were a script or story board for a future episode of MLP:FIM you could easily see both the toaster and the arc-welder axed as straying too far from the low tech "feel" of the show. But comic =/= episode script.

Dantes_Grill said...

2nd: isnt that lunas cup shes drinking from?

KTS said...

1. Ed: I like Buttered Toast

2.a wet message from your student can make you lose hope.

Senior Waffles said...

#1 Sweetie Belle in the second row ftw and lol at Pinkie Pie's response.
#2 Haaaaaa!

Dusty the Royal Janitor said...

@Octavia

#1) Marshmallow Fluff of course XD

Mike said...

magical fire has too much potential for abuse. lol.

jodyjm13 said...

#1: Nice art and amusing punchline, but Pinkie was definitely the highlight of the comic.

#2: I've mentioned my fondness for Briskby's art before, but even considering that, this is one of my favorite pony comics I've seen so far. Great poses and expressions, and a clever gag delivered perfectly. The letter is icing on the cake. (And I think the mug actually is Celestia's; why wouldn't she have a mug saying Luna is #1?)

@Timber
For comics or certain fanfics, sure; but for the show, I prefer the low-tech vision that Lauren Faust has for Equestria. (Toasters, I think, would be fine, though the one Pinkie's building might be a bit extreme...)

jodyjm13 said...

@frith
Yes, it was her art they were using, but it looks like they're finally using some official art now.

DashAttack said...

inb4 Twilight is banished to Equestria's ice caps.

Ford said...

Twilight's cutie mark is backwards.

jodyjm13 said...

@DashAttack
Actually, I think it's much more likely than Celestia will respond in kind. Which means there's a snowball being sent from Canterlot with Twilight Sparkle's name on it. (And probably one for Spike too.)

Tokyo Oranges said...

I could totally see Pinkie and Sweetie Belle doing that 8D

Popcorn said...

The look on Celestia's face is perfect!

Luna-tic Scientist said...

#2 is excellent; poor old Celestia, not a winter pony (those castles can get very drafty and it takes ages to warm up all that stone!).

Hmmm - based on the change in day length summer->winter, I guess that makes Luna a big fan of the winter (assuming Equestria has an axial tilt)!

Wierdplatformer said...

1. Oh.... oh my.

2. Short, but satisfyingly sweet!
