last week at the san diego comic con, IDW announced that i will be writing the first four issue story arc for their new Hasbro comic title... My Little Pony: Frienship is Magic.
my dear friend, Andy Price, is handing the artistic duties on this... making it the first comic that i am writing for someone else to draw. it's daunting, but i am excited. andy is uber talented and i trust him to make my words shine with love and tolerance and friendship and magic and pony-goodness.
as a huge fan of the show, i can't wait to show everyone how much i love twilight sparkle :P
the show has a huge cult following, so i'm actually terrified i'll make some mistake that will have pony fans throwing horseshoes at me at comic conventions... but, well, you know. i'm writing a comic that i would want to read and andy would want to draw. we're fans. we love ponies. we're going to make is as good as we can!
now, since i kind of have to stop posting pony artwork that's not approved for a while... i can't post the piece i was going to post when i made this blog post...
so...
umm.. i quickly made up my new spin-off "my little manatee". here you go. here's me as a not-a-pony-my-little-manatee. see how my cutie mark is my logo? that's branding. delightful. let's make a comic of this concept too. i'm sure it will be just as adventure filled and exciting.
I look forward to this book. It'll be interesting to read your stuff.
