My Little Pony #5
SCORE: 82
I am very thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of My Little
Pony #5. This comic book series has been very interesting and the
mystery continues to deepen. We are given some backstory within My
Little Pony #5. Before I go any further all ya'll should know that there
will be spoilers within My Little Pony #5. The ponies follow a lead to
someone who knows about Discord. Things get creepy strange within My
Little Pony #5. In a lot of ways My Little Pony #5 feels like one of
those scary stories told around the campfire.
My Little Pony #5 introduces us to Lightning Rod. He takes care of a
lighthouse in My Little Pony #5. He tells the ponies a couple of scary
stories. The stories revolve around the Mirror of Mayhem and how it
connects to the Lord of Chaos. My Little Pony #5 ends with a freaky
scene where the lighthouse is gone after the ponies leave it. Half of
the mirror is there. The other half is referenced as being under all of
the rubble. The ponies had left to go find it. It dawns on one of them
that they should have taken the half Lightning Rod had.
The different ponies within My Little Pony #5 have different
personalities. This shows really well in their reactions to the ghost
stories they are told. They also enjoy some nice snacks and drinks. One
of the lessons within My Little Pony #5 is to not hold onto the past.
Lightning Rod held onto the past and his entire town was destroyed. He
learned from that mistake. He even used electronic devices. Wikiponia is
referenced as a site that has accurate information in My Little Pony #5.
It must be better than our Wikipedia.
The issues families can have with My Little Pony #5 are magic, scares,
frights, and a story that could cause some nightmares. Discord was
trapped in the Mirror of Mayhem at one time. It caused bad luck to
everyone but Fet Lockland. In fact Fet Lockland got very wealthy thanks
to the mirror. Lockland let ponies look at the mirror to see their
futures. The futures were not always as bright as they hoped though. In
fact it usually made the ponies very miserable. Like the pony that got
married.
We learn a lot more about Discord with My Little Pony #5. What we do not
learn is where Discord is. I am hoping Discord is found pretty soon. The
ponies within My Little Pony #5 have hope they will find Discord thanks
to the information they found in My Little Pony #5. The idea is to use
the mirror to location Discord. There is a connection between the two.
Time will tell if it all works out in future issues of this comic book.
I figure it probably will. There are twenty-two pages, alternate covers
and then advertisements inside My Little Pony #5.
