I just hope it doesn't last more than an issue or so. I like the group dynamic more than I like having them in pairs. Also, my favorite expression is either the POV of Twilight from inside the crystal ball, or else Rarity's pained expression when the troll names her pony George.

i also liked RD's in the first few pages

and it's only a 4 part story, so can't last that long.

A variant cover for issue #3 that uses a panel from the comic for the back indicates that they will end up back together by the end of the issue, though not exactly on purpose.

It might be helpful to revisit the upcoming issue synopsis's, for those who don't want to dig around the internet for them like I just did...

Issue 3: The Mane 6 enter the heart of the Changeling Kingdom to rescue their friends! Danger lurks everywhere, and each Pony will have to put their best hoof forward if they are to survive the night! Unfortunately that’s exactly what the Changeling Queen expects! Will our heroes fall into her trap?

Issue 4: Their epic quest nearing its end, the Mane 6 reach the Changeling Kingdom and find themselves at the mercy of Queen Chrysalis! A sinister offer threatens to tear the group apart before they can save the day. Will friendship prevail over the Queen’s nefarious plan?

Also, Issue 3 is still on schedule to be released on January 16 as far as I can tell...making that a week from now. Huh, I guess we won't have to wait that long to find out.

Well issue 2 was delayed by something totaly unrelated to the comic itself.

We've got preview pages for issue #3. Holy shit.

I don't think I've ever seen such a combination of awesome, cute, disturbing, and pure evil before. The Changeling Kingdom isn't something that has always existed. It's a kingdom that they conquered that used to belong to adorable cats.

Also, I Knew It!! Chrysalis's plan has been one big Xanatos Gambit the whole time. She knows that she can't break their friendship. In fact, she knows that she's only making them stronger in the long run. Everything leads up to draining the most powerful unicorn in Equestria of her magic at the very moment when she is at her strongest.

I think Chrysalis has just shot up to the top of my villain rankings...

Brilliant plan, both in and out of universe. I am quite satisfied with this explanation for the comet.

Oh wow is that epic. I wonder if after Chrysalis inevitably gets defeated again we'll see the cats come back.

If that's how they drain love, I shudder to think what it would look like if Twilight's magic ends up getting drained. Poor cats.

And so it was, Princess Cadance & Shining Armor accidentally doomed a peaceful kingdom to the south by sending Chrysalis there. Oops.

Can I just say I like the talking Changeling commander? Is he Chrysalis's Dragon? I think I'll call him General... Green. Look, I never claimed to be creative.

then, would that make the Changelings Lovecatian Horrors?

sorry sorry.

Though we do have proof the a changeling draining love CAN be fatal and drain life energy too. though i'm gong with the head-canon that it's only if they drain to much to fast

I don't know whether it's more hilarious or horrific that even after being attacked and having their life drained away, the cats are still all friendly and 'I want to LOVE you!'

I like what I see. Yes, I like what I see a lot! evil grin

Not only do we get to see what happened to Chrysalis shortly after her defeat, but we get to find out that she is capable of learning from her mistakes. In fact, she is well on the way to becoming Dangerously Genre-Savvy...if she hasn't already! surprised

Oh, Equestria, we stand on guard for thee!

That is awesome! It's because of stuff like is that Chrysalis is my favourite villian. And the lovecats are adorable.

I kinda like the idea that the cats are totally cool with the changelings feeding off of them because they have love to spare anyway; that one on the final preview page certainly seems happy despite the fact that his country has been invaded.

I don't care if the cats are cool with it. Victimizing a cat is one of those things that is pretty much guaranteed to piss off EVERYONE on the Internet.

Okay. I am now convinced that I need to read these comics. Question is, I'm not sure how to get my hands on them.
