@Masem That’s like my second biggest problem with Cook even being allowed to touch the series, really. If I wanted to read that, I would go to /mlp/ and read the original!

Having multiple sets of writers is a great way to keep the series fresh, and it’s good that Cook/Price and Nufer/Mebberson/Hickey have different approaches to their stories, and as such, to each their own. I completely agree that the Nuhfer’s got a much better handle on writing the ponies as the characters the show sets them to be and worries less about inserting cultural gags, but at the same time, I do find her pacing a bit odd (there’s ways I would have arranged #13 slightly differently). On the other hand Cook/Price have the timing elements down with great flow, but they do tend to skimp on character in favor of the gag. It is not that Cook doesn’t write them in character, but there’s not too much extrapolation from the show, while Nuhfer seems to be able to keep the characters in line but in situations far from the show.
 
Basically, because of having so many writers and artists here, the comic’s going to be able to stay fresh for a long time, a problem with series that have a singular writer and artist throughout the run.

Roronoa Zoro does it all the time.

@Background Pony #8BC1  
RD being able to talk without dropping the sword. That’s interesting. (Where as in S1, a character dropped something while trying to talk.)

@Background Pony #ADD6  
And that is why I like Nuhfer, and a few of the writers for the micro series, so much more than Cook/Price, who would have just taken the fan made joke and run with it. She tells an interesting story rather than try and break a record for most references per square inch from issue to issue. I do quite enjoy Hickey’s action panels in the issue as well, the use of onomatopoeia works a lot better here than it did in the AJ issue, it just feels more natural. I just love everything about these panels.

I don’t find the Rarity Fighting a Giant Crab meme to be offensive and if the comic played a little bit on it, I would laugh a little.  
How ever, there a lot of other memes I wouldn’t mind seeing go away, like the chickun meme.

Well, Rarity got her dream.

@Background Pony #87B4  
There’s a lot of memes from this fandom that need to be buried.

i hope rarity does NOT end up fighting it so we can put that stupid meme to rest

Dammit, where’s Rarity when you need h-
 
Oh, there she is.

599.99 US Dollars.
 
Also, if Rarity doesn’t handle this….

A wild Kingler appeared!

Nope, the crab become a crucial part in the army of pinkie crabs
 

 

Will Rarity hit its weak point for massive damage?
 
TUNE IN NEXT MONTH!

Seeing Rarity’s eye pop out like that reminds me of One Piece.
 
Also, I really need to get this comic.

Rarity vs giant crab, in the comic, I can’t believe it. XDDD

So there’s this giant enemy crab.
 
And you must attack its weak point for massive damage.
 
“CRAB BATTLE!”

Man, this will be so funny if Rarity’s teh one to fight it.

Someone has been keeping an eye on fandom trends.

So here’s this Giant Enemy Crab…
