My Little Pony Classics Reimagined Valentine's Day Special: Romeo and Juliet is a comic book written by Megan Brown and drawn by Jenna Ayoub. It is the third comic in the Classics Reimagined series following both Little Fillies and The Unicorn of Odd. It was released on February 8, 2024. The story is an adaptation of Romeo and Juliet.

In the fair city of Porona, two party planning business, the Capulets (portrayed by the Mane Six) and the Montagues (portrayed by Cheese Sandwich, Capper, Starlight Glimmer, Trixie, Sunburst and Ember) have benn rivals for ages and they are in a feud with each other. Both companies wish to gain the honor of planning Princess Flurry Heart's first birthday party. At a masquerade ball, Romeo (Cheese Sandwich) meets Juliet (Pinkie Pie) and the two fall in love after talking to each other and discovering they have so much in common. However the Capulets and Montagues get into a huge fight making a huge mess in the streets. Princess Cadance places both groups on probation after getting sick and tired of their constant fighting. Now Romeo and Juliet must work together to get both sides to help each other before they are banned from party planning forever.

This comic provides examples of:

  • Added Alliterative Appeal: The full name of each company. The Capulet's Catapults, Cupcakes, and Celebrations and the Montague Merriment Makers.
  • Put on a Bus: Capper and Rainbow Dash were sent to Yakyakistan and Farasi respectively for fighting each other and making a mess of the royal grounds.
  • Running Gag: Discord suggests poison as a solution to their problems.
  • Spared by the Adaptation: The couple doesn't die in the comic.
