Well, he outranks everyone but Chrysalis…

I’d just like to not be reminded of the day I stopped being a Celestia fan because the more I think about the test the worser that concept it was given gets.

@Jades  
Then don’t ask?

@martianmister
 
Please do not remind me of the immorality of that situation.

@Jades  
They didn’t because Celestia wanted to use it as a test for Twilight.

Holy honk, this comic. It may or may not make sense, but it’s going to be an awesome thing to see.

I can say only one thing at this point:
 
“RADIANT HOPE, HAVE YOU GONE CRAZY?!”
 
Also, with Sombra’s return: “Oh, crap…”
 
Now we know why she rounded up the villains: They were decoys so she could get into the palace and return Sombra to flesh and bone.
 
To quote Star Wars: “I’ve got a bad feeling about this…”

@Mojo  
Bet you didn’t know this, but Darth Vader was wearing a life-support suit.
 
….And then ALL OF THE SUDDEN, the breathing doesn’t sound as scary as it once did.

@Joshua
 
Ha, it’s hard to really say that’s an “opinion” One of them is dead and the other is a delimbed half-corpse stuck in what is essentially a walking iron lung who’s lost literally everything he’s ever cared about expect his devotion to the guy who planned just about every event that led to this. It really doesn’t get much worse than that. Really that’s a story where literally the only guy in the entire galaxy who’s having a good time is Palaptine.

@Mojo  
True. Anakin ended up becoming Darth Vader and Padme ended up dying. In my personal opinion, that’s a no-win situation for both of them.

@Joshua
 
Regardless of what you think of it as a movie, I think it’s pretty much indisputable it did not end well for ether Anakin or Padme. Like. At all.

I give this issue Setup/10.
 
Cause really that’s what this was, pure set-up the villains thing seems to just of been a little thing on the side to keep things entertaining.

@Background Pony #F83D  
Yeah, except Episode 3 was a good movie.

Really, Hope? Did you not see Episode III? Doing evil stuff for love NEVER works out well, and normally a lot of bloods been shed by the time the dust clears.

@Darth Sonic  
It’s true.

@dynamicv  
Your right. It was uncalled for. But rest assured, this isn’t the Hasdrone meme. Joshua and I have gotten into fights before, so I was biased.
 
By most accounts, I’m a Hasdrone.

@dynamicv  
I like it too. Yeah, making Iron Will was kind of a stretch, but man alive, the battle was just too good. Almost like the war in The Lion King or the one in the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

@Darth Sonic
 
That’s uncalled for, he just said the Western Arc sucks. This “hasdrone” meme needs to crawl back into the pit whence it came.

@Joshua
 
I wrote a multi-paragraph long praise of this issue in the story thread and gave it a 9.5/10 so yeah I like it a LOT more than Issue #25.

@Joshua  
Oh, I like this issue. I just found you stating that you were “worried” dishonest. You gobble up anything Pony related, regardless of quality.

@Darth Sonic  

@dynamicv  
Well, what about you? I know The Good the Bad and the Ponies kinda sucked, but this comic here seems much better, don’t you think?

@Joshua
 
The Good the Bad and the Ponies

@Darth Sonic
 
Man that’s harsh.
