Those are G1 ponies in those cave painting…
This morning Comics Alliance broke the news of a brand new comic series! The new series is launching with a new story by Jeremy Whitley and Brenda Hickey. The premise of the series is to explore "the secret history of Equestria."
However, also with this news comes the announcement that Friends Forever is ending with Issue 38. So like the Micro Series, we're ending on a tale focused on Princess Luna and how she relates to her sister. I for one accept this monumental coincidence.
To avoid potential spoilers for the series the details are after the break! So be sure to check out the highlights of the article, including the full solicitation for the book, after the break!
Writer Jeremy Whitley had this to say about the new series:"My Little Pony: Legends of Magic” is a tremendous opportunity for both us as comic creators and our readers to get a chance to really dive into the rich mythological history of the My Little Pony world. The long history of the world is so often hinted at in the show and now we have the chance to pick up on all those little hints and fill in all the rich details. It gives us a chance to tell different sorts of stories and follow mythological members of the cast who have only ever appeared in stories and flashbacks. It gives us an opportunity to work very closely with the show without having to tell stories that are happening at the same time. It will be a must read for big time My Little Pony fans!”And Artist Brenda Hickey had this to say:
“In Legends of Magic you will be introduced to a whole new, diverse, and colorful cast. Of course there will be appearances from a few familiar faces, so you also can look forward to that!”My Little Pony: Legends of Magic #1—SPOTLIGHT
