For the love of God, someone just murder Fosgitt already!

>>29900611
That cover isn't even that bad when it comes to ponies. But he sure annoy me with inclusion of a fucking tv.

At least draw a modern TV you mongrel, not a model from the 80's

Probably the shittiest comic book company you could hire.
Hiring them to write a comic book about your favourite thing would be more insulting than spitting the creator in the face. Sorry PPG and Samurai Jack.

You know, I only just noticed it but shot art aside, the dialogue says "everyBODY" and not everypony. How the fuck is IDW still in business?

>>29901549
It has been a long while since they ditched the ponyspeak.
Don't even bother to try to complain, they were already reported for simply blocking e-mail adressed that do not message them to kiss their butts and this isn't just a problem happening to FiM's comic.

>>29901598
The only licensed material they treat well is DC's stuff, because DC capeshit is respected by them I guess.

The fosgitt art. It ruined it.
The writing It's terrible.

>>29901789
The toys were awkwardly forced in and looked unnatural and everything was written like bad fanfiction. Also Fosgitt """"""art""""""

>>29900611

Naw. That's funny.

>>29901789
The faggots who kept supporting the comic after it became shit?
Also Equestria Daily for shilling the comic to kingdom come and blocking all bad comments about it?

In case any of you care, this comic should be coming out tonight around midnight EST.
IDW standards aside, have any hopes for this swan song for the Friends Forever series being above the norm?

>>29901789
The concept itself is shit, and Fosshitt's art certainly doesn't help. And to think there's faggots that want a GoH TV series...

>>29901838
> Andy Price's bitter and smug pony faces

No thanks.

>>29901846
The concept is good, it's just that IDW faggot writers got triggered that they were told to make something that had potential instead of random OC shit.

>>29901838
I just wish Andy kept that stupid butler OC and possum OC out of this shit.

>>29901731
But remember, annuals and deviations have higher price tags, so that means they got more bronybux per sale.

Total sales:
Jan 2017: $103,889
Feb 2017: $78,810
Mar 2017: $137,333

>>29901921
Considering that they only pay their artists what, like 3k an issue, that's a pretty good deal.

>>29901910
>The concept is good
For whom? The target audience? Bronies? Neither watch MLP for action stuff. The ones that are interested in action have much better stuff to watch. They can make GoH as "cool" and "badass" as they want, but in the end, it's still MLP, which is an immediate turn off for many people, and the ones who would be interested already like MLP the way it is. It has no positives, really, alienating the current fanbase while gaining no new fans.

>>29901974
And that's not counting TPB and digital sales.

>>29900642
Naw. I prefer old-style techn for cartoons... it's comfier.
>implying MLP should have tech at all

>>29901981
What alienation? No one is going to complain about better toys and armor.

>>29902125
Jay Fosgitt worked there, and used stolen armor concepts from a fanartist.

>>29902168
Yes.

Fucking shit

>>29902125
The concept was great, and so were the toys but the cómics did not even try to make anything out of it, literally no history or even attempt of one. It left a lot of people dissapointed. Like bringing a box of pizza to your friends but full of plastic bags and no pizza.

>>29903652
I just don't get how no one at IDW got excited about it. They clearly phoned it all in. You'd think they would love it.

>>29903631
They're not even forced to watch the content they write for. It's shitty.

>Hasbro makes a bajillion dollars from mlp
>can't afford to hire better artists or writers
I remember when the comics first came out out and there was this gleeful hope for their potential. So many possibilities lost. So many opportunities wasted.

>>29903685
No one wants to work on it. The industry refuses to see it as anything but garbage.

>>29903685
meanwhile, Marvel and Cartoon Network unironically hire sub-par tumblr artists.

They could easily get some fresh talent in the industry by hiring some of the more promising fan artists.

Comics are THE place were Hasbro could benefit from the fans of the show. Dozens of highly talented artists could draw comics miles better from much less money.

Instead, they just insert ebin brony memes in the episodes.

>>29901789

Everyone was hyped, specially the spikefag with the whole giant spike. Then Fosgitt was confirmed artists of the spike section of the comic

>>29900611
My God. It's like whenever the show reaches a new low it's prepared to immediately dive ten times deeper.

>>29904822

Fucking this

Why the fuck does Fosgitt think Equestria has TVs consistently?

Reminder that the same autistic shiteaters from Derpibooru who love the comic exposed themselves as the shitposters who constantly wanted to sabotage Pencils's threads.

>>29907028
drawing dynamic action scenes definitely isnt Pencil's strong suit but good lord, frossgit didnt even bother to draw backgrounds

>>29908020
>>29907028
I'll take correct anatomy and good backgrounds over what Fosgitt gave us, thanks.

I'm pretty sure it's easy to be "dynamic" and fluid when you have a complete lack of regard for on-model characters or proper anatomy.

>>29908105
you can go a bit offmodel for dynamic shots. I can see what kind of disciplines fosgitt used but its just really really poorly executed with incredibly lazy framing, inking, etc.

Im not saying I wouldnt easily pick Pencils over fosgitt, just that he needs some practice in action scenes.

>>29908118
Fosgitt is not "a bit" off model or ignorant of anatomy.

Honestly, the problem with Fosgitt is that he rushes/procrastinates. He crams a 22 page comic in four days of work. He's the kind of guy to just want to get it done instead of taking a short break to draw it right.

>>29908224
Im not disagreeing, there's just a lot of people that think offmodel=death even in animation/smear frames

>>29908231
You can still be dynamic with correct anatomy.

>>29901853
I liked them at first, but they got old fast.>>29901910

>>29907028
I only ever like fosgitt when he draws silly things, and now that the only real fun series of the comics is getting the axe, I don't care to see his art.

This just shows me that he's far from playing to what little strength he has. I'm honestly surprised Fosgitt still has a job considering how much hate he gets, but that might just be from hanging out in /mlp/ comic threads.

Also I like the how actiony the comics are, but I really liked having a serious and not serious series.
