5 Page Preview for Transformers / My Little Pony #2

Loving Spike's fanboying over Grimlock. He's big into comic books and superheroes so he's the perfect one to be in this situation. Otherwise, Rainbow Dash would be a good fit too, but more in a complementing way since she too is full of confidence like Grimlock, as opposed to how Spike contrasts to Grimlock's confidence. Either way, this is very smartly-written.

The only solution to a 'poney' infestation is something like this: !

Now, see, if this had been made back in the 1980s, Applejack would be sitting in a corner, cowering in fear, begging for her life in a passive, submissive manner, wanting some big strong hero to come and rescue her.

But here, with this comic drawing inspiration from the Friendship is Magic series, AJ is strong-willed, independent, taking charge of the situation, and anything but a pushover. She's angry, frustrated, and determined to get those low-down, cotton-pickin' varmints offa her property! She ain't goin' down witout a fight, and'll die trying to defend her family's honor and legacy.

Why am I somehow not surprised that you know all of this? You're scaring me...

It's honestly not any different from Transformers fans knowing what they know.

In a way. But it's still kinda creepy...

Where've you been for the last decade? They made a good MLP series that garnered a huge following of fans just like any other decent, intelligent cartoon series would. The fact that it starred characters that were horses and a predominately female cast was completely irrelevant to how good it was.

This isn't the 1980s anymore where cartoons have to be segregated by gender.

At what point did I bring gender into it? And honestly, I didn't know about any new cartoons or that it was a mostly female cast. Frankly I don't care.

It's more about the overall weirdness of the entire package of MLP plus Transformers, plus the fact that you yourself had such minutia stored in your little grey cells to be withdrawn at a moment's notice but hobbies are hobbies.

As for my last decade, I've spent the last decade or so traying to keep people from dying on my shift (because OMG! The paperwork!), which leads to drinking, burnout, and exhaustion on a daily basis while simultaneously working on a Master's degree with the purpose of giving myself a more prominent role in keeping people from dying on my shift.
So...pretty much a masochistic stupor. Does that help?

If this cross-over isn't your thing, then move along. It's a concept that's so simple even your little grey cells could comprehend.

Not "having a go". Teasing. Poking fun. Seriously, it's tongue-in-cheek. SB's own signature pokes fun at his knowledge of television minutia!

They're called emoji's.

Things like are a good way to convey you're joking.

Good point. Apologies to both youse. Please go back and read the previous posts in a snarky, sarcastic, tongue in cheek voice...maybe Fran Drescher or Danny Devito?

I'll go take my meds. I forgot them this morning...

I want to see a Knight Rider crossover in the worst way....
