Space Odyssey reference for the win. Awr, poor Luna. I wonder if there is any lasting trauma or if it went away with Nightmare Moon. I vote she needs a hug regardless. #2: If this is a reference to "The Rainbow Zebra" then be told-I grew up on that book. My grandmother made a plushie of the rainbow zebra. I loved that thing. Well done. Also I would just love to see Rarity's reaction to This!
First comic: Oh, I wish I could remember where all those references. Lets see, Astronaut, Final Fantasy (I didn't recall them going to the moon). Last little emblem I know I've seen somewhere before.
Second comic: Those leaves of blue are not a joke!
@Bugsydor Close, but no cigar. Filly Rainbow Zecora is cuter :D
...and now I feel like drawing more Zecora fanart. Though I guess I could have had much worse brainfart. Nothing wrong in drawing something so awesome, I think. Even if her mane colour is not splashed with untimely pink. Giving an excuse to rhyme can't be that bad either, given that it at least makes me think before I hit enter...
Let's see if I can name the references on the first comic:
2001 Space Odyssey (Come on, bronies, the "Full of stars" comment should have been enough!)
Final Fantasy 4.
The last one has the roman numeral XVIII, probably referring to the canceled Apollo space program, or the movie of the same name implying the program was terminated due to evidence of life forms on the moon.

ReplyDeleteI really like the second one, made me lauhgt in just 2 pics.
ReplyDelete@FoxOfWar Agreed
ReplyDeleteNayc!
ReplyDelete1 up for FF4 (or FF2 for america) reference!
ReplyDeleteSo nightmare moon was behind Golbez? Best evil cuddly pony ever.
ReplyDeleteAlso Rainbow Zecora because of poison joke.
Freakin' A, first soft and marketable filly Zecora and then rainbow Zecora? So much awesome.
ReplyDeleteLOL @ #2, I agree it just needed a basic setup to deliver the d'awwwwwww
ReplyDelete#1 I had seen weeks ago, it's pretty good tho.
Ha ha, they're both good, but that second comic is just precious!
ReplyDeleteZecora Zebra Bubble Gum?! =O Do want!
ReplyDeleteFirst comic- I don't have a clue what that's about. Careful using references bronies!
ReplyDeleteSecond comic- A good combination of humour and cuteness :D
Holy cow. Do they even make Fruit Stripe gum anymore?
ReplyDeletehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_Stripe
I really hope Luna becomes a friend to the Mane 6 like in the first comic.
ReplyDelete*suddenly craves some Fruit Stripe gum after reading the second comic*
ReplyDelete@Presspass
ReplyDeleteI think they still do.
i ROFL when i saw ff4 referece on the first XD
ReplyDelete@StreaktheFox: Technically, it's still FF4 for America. It was only released as FF2 once out of the five times it's been locallized.
ReplyDeletePretty awesome stuff. Iaughed at both the references as well. Really made my day!
ReplyDeleteAbout the first comic: And that's why America dropped it's space program!
ReplyDelete"Houston, you won't believe this but... I just spoke to a winged black unicorn on the moon!"
"... Okay, how do you guys keep sneaking the booze on board the rockets?"
And the second with filly Zecora just maxed out my cuteness tolerance. Squeee!
Love the second comic. Fruit stripe!
ReplyDelete@D. Shadows
ReplyDeleteMore like.. Zemus/Zeromus was behind Nightmare Moon! Ahhhhhhhhh~!
Cute little Zecora filly! So adorable!
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't Zecora Rhyme? :c
ReplyDeleteBlack Snooty!, Black Snooty!
ReplyDeleteZecora spoke, but just one word.
ReplyDeleteThe rest of her rhyme was left unheard.
FRUIT STRIPES & ZECORA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteWhat?
First Day
Zecora: Wee!
Next Day
Zecora: Eee! (as in surprise?)
#1 "What are you?"

@FoxOfWar
ReplyDeleteActually, I believe that the title of "Cutest Thing Ever" should go to this.
More proof that Zecora is awesome and underrated. Also congrats to the artist for making her mother look convincingly canon.
ReplyDeleteFRUIT STRIPES ZECORA, LMAO!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, Fruit Stripes gum is still made. I got the ref to that when I saw the rainbow Zecora. Still, filly Zecora is ridiculously cute.
ReplyDeleteHaha, that second comic is great. I remember that gum. Haven't even seen it in a good while now, but I'm almost certain they still sell it.
ReplyDeleteSo I'm not the only one who remembers that gum and its mascot...
ReplyDeleteYipes! Stripes!
ReplyDeleteomg I love the design on Zecora's mother.
