IDW MLP Comics App!—An Indepth Review

Well that tagline is a little misleading. They don't quite have "every My Little Pony comic and graphic novel ever created." For one thing, it's missing the original Japanese Manga stories that came out came last year. And for another, it's missing these gems from Generation One of MLP.

tsk. tsk. tsk. Truth in advertising IDW. If you're going to claim to have every My Little Pony comic and graphic novel ever created, you must make sure you have every one. Otherwise you risk fitting the part of the fool.

Joking aside, I've spent some decent amount of time playing around with this comic app. For those of you interested, you can check out my full review after the break!

Ponies Around the World 2015 - Day 1 Submissions

The world is vast, and ponies are EVERYWHERE. Whether it's a random kid with a Pinkie Pie shirt in China, or a brony stationed at a camp in Antartica with his Fluttershy plushie, there isn't a place on earth that hasn't been at least slightly exposed to cartoon equines.

Every year, we celebrate that, and have you all send in images of pony toys in exotic or interesting locales. We got an astounding number of entries this time around, clocking in at over 400. For the sake of computers everywhere, these posts will be split up and released daily.

Now go! Check out some awesome Ponies Around the World!

Editorial: When Does Pandering Go Too Far?

Oh my Celestia this joke is almost 3 years old. There was a joke in poor taste here, but it has been removed.

Alright, now that I've done it, we can officially lay the panda joke to rest. Or not, I don't control any of you yet. Pandering is an interesting topic in MLP, considering there always seems to be a different line for everyone else on what "good" and "bad" pandering would be. Some say that there shouldn't be any pandering because it detracts from what the writers are trying to create. On the flip side, others would like their ships validated, background characters given more screen time, or any number of possible combinations. Let's discuss pandas and the throwing thereof after the break. Whoops I did it again.

Story: Wires (Update Part 9!)

[Dark][Adventure]

Author: Dark Avenger

Description: The news had shocked the entire nation. Anger, violence, and even threats of war have erupted in the colony on the borders of the harsh Frozen North, all of it centered around the infamous city of Gueldergrad. If Equestria is to put an end to the chaos before it escalates, somepony must venture into the foreign lands and set things right.

A noble unicorn steps up to meet the challenge: Shining Armor. Newest prince of the Crystal Empire. Captain of the Royal Guard. The pride of the Equestrian armed forces. But there is a lot hidden in the far-stretching lands of the Frozen North, and even more can it reveal among those who dare to enter. Things the valiant captain does not yet know about his own company, those who command him, or even himself...

Wires (New Part 9!)

Additional Tags: cultures collide war is hell, Alternate Universe

Discussion: Should Shining Armor and Cadance Have a Kid?

I've added a season 5 spoiler tag to this just in case. It's sort of a hot button issue suddenly with that potential hint in the poster the other day.

We have had rumors about the proposed "Princess Skyla" foal for Shiny and Candybutt here for a few years now, with toys and ominous twitter messages fueling it. Each time, the fandom is pretty well divided on what they'd like to see. Should we get a kid from these two? Chances are, this would dominate an episode, but not have a huge impact on the show past that. How would you want something like that to be handled?

Hit those comments up!

Thanks to Dream Weaver on twitter for the suggestion.
