• Nightly Roundup #631


    How about two ponies for the price of one tonight? Besides, I was drinking orange juice when I saw this pic so it seemed appropriate, not to mention I love WizardWannabe's work.

    Silly Pinkie Parody



    I have no idea what exactly this is a parody of, but apparently it is a parody of this source material you can see in this comparison video. It has a dancing Pinkie Pie though so that is good enough for me.

    Podcast Review of The Brony Documentary

    My name is Terry Blas. I'm a Portland based comic book artist and illustrator with Periscope Studio. 

    In addition to drawing comics, I do a podcast called The Gnerd Podcast



    Our newest episode, which came out today, has a review by me of The Brony documentary which I loved. I get a little emotional in regards to how much I loved it and how wonderful it is, while also mentioning that I have been a fan of MLP since I was a kid in the 80's, and as a gay adult it is interesting to me to see so many straight and open minded young men who have embraced something I've loved for a long time. 


    You can download the episode for free on iTunes (it's episode 34) or on my website:
