Just now noticed the proximity of Sweetcream Scoops to Big Macintosh. I’ve got some shipping to do! Now if they just bring back Fleetfoot and Tealove in the mix, I would pass out in mouth foam from the mass shipping that would follow.

@DAPLR  
Did you walk through any mirrors lately?

Well, that’s hardly fair. 441TheSecond at least doesn’t go that far. I mean, there ARE people that do that, but he’s not one of them.

I guess considering the very title of the comic is called ‘Roots of the Problem’, I suppose this story revolves around why the Everfree Forest is so out of control when unchecked to begin with. Even without Discord’s interference, the tree of harmony was the only thing keeping the forest from spreading. Even with the elements removed, even Discord miscalculated how long it would take to overcome the tree.
 
“control and contain all that grows here” I believe how Celestia put it.
 
However, the Rainbow of Light has been released, which was the final ‘seed’ the Tree had to offer. So I imagine it doesn’t have that much power left. Which means that they might have to research into the origins and curse of the Everfree Forest….I’m looking foreword to this :D
 
Hmm, now that I think about it, exploring the out-of-control nature of the Everfree forest via an episode would of been nearly impossible to do, since in video format, it would feel too similar to PTS, which only focused on Discord making an old problem worse and never explained that old problem.

@Background Pony #A193  
Yeah, it looks like her stripes were inked in black by Andy Price instead of colored in later.
 
He did this once in the Big Mac arc when her image was smaller, just like on this page.

…Um, is it just me, or does Zecora look a little different in that last panel?

@Background Pony #A193  
Yep. And it’s all downhill from there.

@441TheSecond  
And meanwhile the dissenters are very respectful and courteous to those who still like the show and/or comics, never stooping to say they must be lowering their standards or gobbling up any old shit pablum that Hasbro slaps the MLP label on.

it’s too bad this artist is so skilled. the plot of these comics just ruins all that gorgeous scenery, facial expressions, use of negative space and three dimensionality.

@DAPLR  
Thing is, people shit on dissent, but it generates far more discussion than admiration.

I can’t believe my eyes.  
Here I am on Derpibooru, and you guys are discussing the merits of the comic and whether it’ good or not, which writers are good and such…yet on Equestria Daily, they are all making tentacle jokes.
 
What happened to us? Where did we lose our way?

I’ve seen enough Bonbon to see where this is going.

@Sr Pelusa  
I like the way you think.

I demand a Justice League/My Little Pony crossover with Zecor and The Demon in a rhyme battle  

@441TheSecond  
Ok, sorry.

@Beau Skunky  
I’m not talking about you specifically, EVERY.SINGLE.FUCKING.TIME I get in an argument about anything, there’s always the shitheads who go “Oh, look at those peasants being passionate about things and arguing with eachother, such low lives, they will never understand what it’s like to have the blue blood of maturity coursing through their veins”.

@441TheSecond  
I never said I was better then anybody else, nor did I find you entertaining… Don’t try to start something me please…

@Beau Skunky  
And I don’t like being treated like a puppet existing solely as entertainment to people who think they are better than everybody else. We all have a shitty time.

@Beau Skunky  

 
Oh, that’s because that comic was surprisingly good, and a solid proof that at least Garbowska pays attention to the negative criticism to know what’s she doing wrong and apply herself to fix it.  
And boy, she has improved a lot.

I think I could do without all the drama personally. If I wanted that, then I would just go back to the Sonic fandom.
 
Yet, somehow I keep finding myself coming to these threads, even though I can’t stand ’em. lol

@Background Pony #8CF1  
I guess not. X3

@Joshua  
Maybe we’re just not lucky.

@Background Pony #8CF1  
Indeed. The drama is twice as good as the comics it was aiming at.

In hindsight, the general drama of the comics has become more entertaining and fun to read than the actual comics themselves. How unsurprising.

@PonyPon  
Coming from you then it must of been good. ;) (I tease, I tease…)
 
From what I saw of it, it looked cute, my only critique about it was, I’m not to big a fan of the artist of that issue, Agnes Garbowska. (She’s not bad some of her style is cute, and some of her art is good, though her ponies look better when seen from the front, then the sides usually.)
