tacobob Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I would buy a digital copy, but considering I plan to take this bad boy to a con and get it autographed by the team and VAs I see...I'll stick to the dead tree version for now...

tacobob Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 And here's a list of all the covers (with pics) so far:http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/10/list-of-variant-covers-with-pictures.htmlJill Thompson's cover looks a bit odd. The 'Larry's Comics' one looks pretty neat...And the Stephanie Buscema ones are nice as well. She's blending her own style with the show's...

RarityDash Posted October 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Can't say I'm too pleased with the Jill Thompson cover I ordered...I would have assumed such a lauded and respected artist would know how to draw a pony better. Fluttershy looks so weird. And all the other covers are so amazing too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconofChaos Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Hmm. I think I got the "subscription varient" one.Oh well, don't care. It's just a cover. The inside it what I'm interested in.You shouldn't judge a comic by its cover. That's an important lesson to learn. I think I'll send that to the Princess. I'm sure she's never heard that one before.

tacobob Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 I purchased the Midtown version with Derpy in the bath 'o' comics. I do like the Double Midnight, Larrys and Buscema's is cool since FIM's style is pretty close to her own...And if any of you follow funny books, she's the granddaughter of comics legend, John Buscema...

tacobob Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 And this is going to be an ongoing series..Not an limited one BTW:"My Little Pony is planned as an ongoing monthly. We'll be breaking story arcs into four issues, at least for the first 8 issues. I kind of consider each four-issue story arc to be equivalent to a 2 part episode of the show, if that makes sense. Gives us a little bit more room to play with 'bigger' stories. So no new #1 are planned. Though if sales take a dive, it's not uncommon to relaunch with a new #1. Hopefully that won't happen.

FrankT Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Aww. Fluttershy as Wonder Woman. Cute. ^^Ah? It's a digital release too? I guess I'll have to consider that if the comics don't turn up on my doorstep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I'll have to consider that if the comics don't turn up on my doorstep!I also think a lot of the comic books out these days, the popular ones, give you a code for the digital download inside the physical comic as well, for those of you who are contemplating which one they want to go with. Here's hoping they do that for this series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlammingHeart Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Whats with the horrifying human faces on the ponies? Kind of creepy I realy regret ordering that cover I might have to get another #1 edition to make up for it. And yes facs looks human and wrong drawing style, plus the propertion of head and body is wrong I nearly think I could do that better myself and that says allot.

tacobob Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Yeah, not one of Jill Thompson's better covers..And this is coming from a major fan of hers who believes her stuff is just awesome..If you've seen the stuff she did on Sandman or Beasts Of Burden..Or Fables..Or Scary Godmother.. Her Applejack isn't that bad...The others...ehhh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacobob Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Heh. I have a feeling when they say 'Huge Crossover potential', they might mean as in readers...Those who enjoy the show, but do not normally read comics might pick it up, and those who enjoy comics, but not the show might pick it up and start following the show as well. But I like your definition better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
