It was already conceived before chapter 2 in all honesty except they already got so many things wrong given that the comic came before chapter 2 or even 1. At first, it was still the lighthouse which later got changed back into the Brighthouse in future issues, then Hitch and the earth ponies appeared to master their EP magic even though supposedly it took place before chapter one, which is why I suggested it must’ve taken place after chapter 2 save for the location mishap.
I feel like they should consider continuity and characterization when writing, though. Like, that’s what good storytelling does, and what fans want to see when they read a comic based on a franchise they like.
It’s like they wanted the high stakes of Discord physically taking out a crystal, but they wouldn’t commit to the canon consequences of it. ‘Cause then they’d need to make the Mane 5 beat him without magic, and that would take more work to write 💀
Oh yeah, but then he did snap back all by himself as you said. He was just in the heat of the moment.
His is glitching too for some reason.
Hitch DID eventually want to get rid of magic though, even if he first just wanted to regulate it. He explicitly wanted to take out the earth pony crystal so that earth ponies wouldn’t have magic anymore. It’s just that by taking out that one crystal NO PONY would have magic, as the crystals need to be united for any pony to have magic (Something the comics just. Completely forget about, by making Discord physically take out the pegasus crystal but the magic is just glitching somehow)

Heh, it’s not the first time he betrays Fluttershy. Of course he’d do it again.
Aside from Discord in g5, there is another set of villains also with grey thinking. Although these guys were meant to be despised while Discord’s case ironically enough since he even met those guys face-to-face is the opposite.
I’m pretty sure the comics so far are taking place after Chapter 1, as they came out, so it seems like how they thought Hitch would think about magic just aged badly. Like I’ve said though, I think that even without Growing Pains as reference it would’ve made more sense for Hitch to sympathize with Izzy, and Zipp to be more on Sunny’s side. I mean his magic is also different from the rest of the girls, and he can’t even levitate. I’m surprised he hasn’t felt left out for his different type of magic too.
I never expected Hitch and Discord to have a good first impression, but that’s more because Hitch loves rules and order and Discord is the epitome of chaos. I get that Hitch is mad at Discord for STEALING the crystal, but I feel like if there’s anyone who would sympathize with Izzy’s feelings or even see where Discord’s coming from it’s probably him, especially since he’s also had a bias against magic in canon. Again, it feels like the comic writers haven’t watched beyond the movie and Chapter 1, but I feel like even without the context of Growing Pains Hitch should be more empathetic. Especially compared to Zipp, who we see in both the movie and Chapter 1 prioritize the magic over everything, including her own family.
Let me bring up s10.
It has to be written before that but can still fit in at least as after chapter 2
Yeah I see your point particularly with hitch, he’s the most extreme against discord, his plan and reasoning since the beginning so it’s kinda funny the show had him be pretty much the same way. Even though he did quickly change his mind. He feels like his movie self here before character development. For zipp I can see it as shes just trying to defend izzy and see were she’s coming from.
Zipp was JUST having a breakdown at the prospect of not being able to fly anymore, and she HAS prioritized saving the magic over personal problems, like, when she prioritized getting the pegasus crystal over being there for Pipp after she became the face of the Royals Can’t Fly scandal.
The ultimate plan.
