I never imagined we’d all be back together on MLP like this, I kinda love it. The little pony family we have with the comics (and now Kayou) warms my heart ❤️

Brenda Hickey @brendahickeycomics.bsky.social · 1d

@amymebberson.bsky.social sending me more photos of my artwork with the Kayou cards, making me feel like I’m part of NYCC even from all these kilometres away 😭❤️

Amy @NYCC Artist Alley A-14 @amymebberson.bsky.social · 1d

They’ve also made all your covers into cards! @brendahickeycomics.bsky.social

More lore from @theillustriousq.bsky.social!
“The CMC made their debut as “Filly Guides” in Friendship is Magic issue 24 by @jeremywhitley.bsky.social and @brendahickeycomics.bsky.social in 2014. The CMC wouldn’t be shown as scouts in the show until 2016.”

Just in! Miraculous Chibi vol 2: Curiosity Kicked the Cat! My cat, Deku, was very curious about what was in the box, but I did not kick him (that’s mean). Turns out he wasn’t excited to see my new book. He just wanted the packing peanuts.

Comic lore from @theillustriousq.bsky.social!
“The Legends of Magic comic series came out before the Pillars of Equestria were introduced in the show. However @brendahickeycomics.bsky.social made Rockhoof’s bed comically small in the his comic issue to hint at his origin story in the show.”
