I told her she should lay off the transparancy just a bit but she wanted it night sky colour and no other.
Seen number two before it popped up here, While she may be trying to bring about nighttime eternal Nightmare really does think of the best punishments.
#1: Ah, there it is. Not even Nightmare Moon is immune to the randomness of Pinkie Pie, who is now threatening to steal the second-best pony slot from Fluttershy. (Best pony, of course, is the eternally adorkable Twilight Sparkle.)
#2: "Here comes the mashed alfalfa train" is a pretty funny line by itself, but coming from Nightmare Moon, it's priceless! I understand why Diamond Tiara is unpopular in the fandom, but it's a shame so few artists and writers take advantage of her comedic potential.
Well, now Pinkie has officially trolled everyone. And while #2 is indeed awesome, I just can't picture Apple Bloom saying that in the last panel. And if vengeance is sweeter to A.B. than Pinkie Pie's cupcakes, then I would NOT want to get on her bad side.
#1 Haha, and it's confirmed that Pinkie looks badass in a helmet.
#2 Ooh, cupcakes reference, Not sure if want. "..for your past sins" Oh you, I see what you did there. Seeing Diamond Tiara eat alfalfa...hilarious. Plus I like Applebloom's expression in the last panel xD
2.- Interesting... it is a 'Cupcakes' reference without actually referencing 'Cupcakes'. Or is it that we simply cannot stop thinking about 'Cupcakes' after we've read it?
It was like the longest time before I realized that the mist swirling around Nightmare Moon is supposed to be her mane and tail. But she's such a great presence that I didn't give the maneless/tailess appearence much heed.
Seeing this, I actually wish NMM had more characterisation. Celestia is actually pretty bland when she isn't trolling, but NMM could have had a lot of potential.
I've always been of the opinion that Eps 1 and 2 were okay but didn't really fit with the show, but now I'm beginning to wonder if, had the NMM arc covered half the season, we could have had a really good villain.
@wackyteen Eh, I don't know. Diamond Tiara strikes me as someone who's not going to change unless something traumatic happens, and I don't think they'd be allowed to show such an event. Silver Spoon would probably mature if she ever stopped spending so much time with Diamond Tiara, but until then, I can't really see her changing either. Besides, I think it's good for the show to have a couple of stuck-up bullies around, so kids who have been (or are being) bullied can sympathize with Apple Bloom and other victims of the Sugar Bump Rump duo.
@PhallenFoenix Pinkie: "WELCOME to DIE!" Actually... yeah, I can see that.
@BlueJay Chill I think it's the latter. I didn't connect the comic with "Cupcakes" until the second time I read through it, and that only because the fandom has conflated the name Pinkamena with the character in "Cupcakes" (which annoys me more than the existence of "Cupcakes", to be honest). But I don't think Nightmare Moon is using the name Pinkamena to make that connection; I think she's just the type of character to refer to everypony by their actual name, not their nickname. But maybe that's just me.

NMM is pretty old then, huh?
ReplyDeleteHah, more comics!
ReplyDeleteNMM is bald?!?! Well, thats to be expected, like Hades from Hercules....
ReplyDeleteWe need an episode where Diamond Tiara/Silver Spoon redeem themselves. A coming of age type thing.
ReplyDeleteOoomg there both so great! XD
ReplyDeleteXD That first one. Bahahahaha, that's hilarious. And it's a followup to that awesome picture from the other day! This made my night XDDDDDDDDDDDD
ReplyDeleteI too, thought that NMM looked bald when I first saw her.
ReplyDeleteI told her she should lay off the transparancy just a bit but she wanted it night sky colour and no other.

Bald! Bald! My eyes they burn!
ReplyDelete#1 was funny, but #2 was just awesome, especially the last panel.
ReplyDelete2nd comic: *Shudders*
ReplyDelete#2 reminds me of Spongebob and Lima beans.
ReplyDelete#1. Poor Nightmare Moon, baldness looks good on you, don't let the others tell you any different!
#2 was awesome, sweet sweet vengeance.
ReplyDelete#1 was funny, poor bald NMM...
also from the sample photo of #2, I thought it might have been a cupcakes reference *shudder*

@Lazulic
ReplyDeleteI was convinced it was a cupcakes reference, I didn't occur to me that it was only a clip.
First time I saw Nightmare Moon, I thought her helmet was her hair...
ReplyDeleteNot the alfalfa! I wouldn't wish that on anypony!
ReplyDeleteDAT MISLEADING #2 IMAGE.
ReplyDeleteWell, now Pinkie has officially trolled everyone. And while #2 is indeed awesome, I just can't picture Apple Bloom saying that in the last panel. And if vengeance is sweeter to A.B. than Pinkie Pie's cupcakes, then I would NOT want to get on her bad side.
ReplyDeleteHaha, the second comic.
ReplyDeleteAt first I was like "NO."
Then I clicked the source and got a good laugh out of it XD
#1: Why I am so bald?
ReplyDeletePinkie + helmet = cutest thing ever.
ReplyDeletePinkie with Nightmare Moon's helmet is way cuter then she has any right to be.
ReplyDeleteAnd that is some fitting revenge for Applebloom.
Oh Nightmare Moon is so cute when she's mad.
ReplyDelete#1 Haha, and it's confirmed that Pinkie looks badass in a helmet.
ReplyDelete#2
Ooh, cupcakes reference, Not sure if want.
"..for your past sins" Oh you, I see what you did there.
Seeing Diamond Tiara eat alfalfa...hilarious. Plus I like Applebloom's expression in the last panel xD
if you are not making a cupcakes reference, then words like "retribution" should be kept at least three panels away from any baked goods.
ReplyDelete@Ragnr
ReplyDeleteI think that was rather the point.
Applebloom's vengeance expression in the last panel of that second comic is excellent. It should be a thing.
ReplyDeleteThe second comic actually made me feel just about as bad as when I read Cupcakes...
ReplyDeleteI think I care about Diamond Tiara more than is healthy...
Is it strange that whenever I see pinkie in NMM's helmet, the first thing I think of is that pinkie = magneto?
ReplyDelete1. Nightmare Moon:BALD BALD BALD BALD BALD
ReplyDelete2. Diamond Tiara is forced to eat something that she doesn't like nothing tastes better REVENGE!

ReplyDeletesoooo many references.
ReplyDeletecupcakes.
alfalfa train
past sins.
asdf
That first comic, haha. Pinkie is trolling Nightmare Moon pro right now. And poor, poor bald Nightmare Moon... XD
ReplyDeleteAnd oh no, not mashed alfalfa! Anything but that! She's only a child!
1: Fricken awesome
ReplyDelete2: Oh god, mashed alfalfa!!!! *shudders*
Not the alfalfa! OH GOD, THIS IS SO CRUEL!!! D:
ReplyDelete1# Why are these Pinkie/NMM pictures showing up now instead of back during season one?
ReplyDelete#2 I can vouch for that.
#1- NM: Oh, it doesn't look that bad.
ReplyDelete*Pinkie pie removes her helmet*
Everypony: BALD, BALD BALD BALD,
NM: Ok you don't have to rub it in.
#2- So we see the return of the dreaded alfalfa. No matter how much of a bitch Diamond Tiara is, I don't think she deserves that.
2.- Interesting... it is a 'Cupcakes' reference without actually referencing 'Cupcakes'. Or is it that we simply cannot stop thinking about 'Cupcakes' after we've read it?
ReplyDeleteOh, Nightmare Moon, I'm sure it's not that noticabaaaAAALD! BALD! BALD! BALD! BALD! BALD!

I AM NOT BALD! My mane is composed of space and stars and there's even a small galaxy in there!
ReplyDelete@Nightmare Moon
ReplyDeleteBut is it hair?
