Fan Declares His OC Better Than Twilight Sparkle


Writing that she helped to redeem King Sombra (who she knew from fillyhood) and remembered by Princess Celestia herself, a prominent fan discussed how his own OC, a crystal pony unicorn named "Radiant Hope" was a more developed character than Princess Twilight Sparkle.


Recalling that she managed to teach Princess Cadance about dark magic as well as convince a cabal of Equestrian villains including Queen Chrysalis to help her in bringing back King Sombra, this OC is claimed by her writer to be much better than current show protagonist Twilight Sparkle.  Much like Twilight, she too was groomed to be a princess by a princess but nobly turned it down out of the extreme desire to help her love, King Sombra. She was protected for a thousand years by a magical race of fairies that deceived her goodness in order to attack her Sombra, but ultimately good won out.


After helping Sombra to save the Crystal Empire and being fully pardoned by Celestia for all of their completely necessary destruction and unleashing of an ancient horror, the redeemed tyrant and his childhood sweetheart were sent off into Equestria, sure to fix problems better than any "Princess of Friendship."

This lone writer's opinion echoes that of this brilliant OC's creator in that a friend with a tendency towards evil is "a problem that Twilight never faces" and congratulates him on his brilliance and deserved FiMFiction hits, as well as deep knowledge of the series that allows him to create a superior character.

Wait, this is a character from the official comics? Written by a professional comic writer? Oh well.

Sombra was later arrested for filly fondling due to their size difference.

  6. Lol at the weak defense. This comic just flat out has terrible pacing, a rushed conclusion and an idiotic character that is in turn made to be a Mary Sue at the same time. Being an idiot does not make a character flawed, it's a crutch for poor/lazy writing in this case.

  7. The IDW comics are nothing more than a bunch of poor fanfiction with an official logo stamped on them.

    All I'll say it's funny that G.M. Berrow's books are petty much considered canon but these books are not.

    3. Both you and the other two commenters are nothing but hateful, triggered idiots. The fact that one arc by one writer pissed you off, doesn't give you the right to shit on the comics as a whole. There are plenty of great arcs. The Return of Queen Chrysalis, Big Mac and the Art of Gazebo Repair, Neigh Anything, Pirate Ponies, Reflections, the whole Fiendship is Magic mini-series, just to name a few. And mind you, Radiant Hope wasn't nearly as bad, nor a Mary Sue in Sombra's origin story, even if I can kind of understand people calling her one in Siege, even if I don't entirely agree. I could have used Nightmare Rarity as an example too, but I know a lot of people think that "ruined" Luna's backstory behind Nightmare Moon.

      When you're willing to be less triggered and hateful and stop judging because you're pissed with ONE writer and arc, then you can get back to me. Until then, I don't think any of you have a right calling yourselves fans.

      I suppose they banked on they enough bronies would be too mindless to care about quality and buy any crap they throw on the shelf. It doesn't help that a lot in the fandom don't know what a well written story is supposed to look like.

    1. I honestly think that the problem is that there is no passion with some of these writers. They all go for their own OC stories because they don't find the characters and settings people care about engaging. This is especially bad with Whitley, who openly has things from the show he "fixes" with his stories.

      No writer on the IDW comics actually gives a shit about the franchise in the same way the fans or show creators do, and that's sad. Some of the artists do, but they're just artists.

    2. >It doesn't help that a lot in the fandom don't know what a well written story is supposed to look like.
      Maybe they do. It just doesn't bother them and just want to enjoy ponies going on a simple adventure. Don't think bad of people just because they do things that are not up to your standards. That's a really negative outlook on humanity.

    4. Yes, do think bad of people for not living up to your standards, because people should want to do better. Everyone should strive to not simply do well at anything they do, but be the best. This is why a good dose of cynicism is a good thing. If everyone got accolades for simply "good enough" no one would try to improve and be better than good.

  18. Yeah... jumped ship a while back, back around that fucking deer story. Hoped that it just was in a slump given the Cow Boy ranch story was stupid too. Was kinda sad to see it was now pretty much status quo, over both books.

    I feel sorry for the artists, since a few of them are pretty good (or otherwise just not suited for Pony, ie Fosgitt), but most of the writers and Curnow are dicks. I still can't believe that Whitley and Anderson are still there after all this time.

  21. Even though she is old news and a dead horse (no pun intended), Radiant Mary Sue Hope is one of the worst My Little Pony ponies every created, as she's a perfect Mary Sue who basically caused all this conflict of that shitty Siege/Seige of the Crystal Empire arc, basically a love-makes-you-stupid idiot (look at Usagi from the new Sailor Moon anime for example), she shows NO remorse for her actions and no one calls her out on it, and she got an undeserved happy ending which should NOT have redeemed Sombra (there's no reason he needed to be redeemed after all the shit he did) at all, thank God this comic is not canon to the universe, it was MLP: FiM at its worst, I lost all hope for and stopped reading the comics after it (and dipping in and out of the newer ones showed me they haven't gotten any better).

    And Jeremy Whitley sucks as a writer, and he probably got a huge fucking paycheck for his shitty work. Considering how I've seen he's sent violence and even death threats (said "trolls = kill themselves" or something like that, and that's what IDW thinks of people who complain or have problems, they're "trolls"), I want to contact Hasbro tell them what Whitley, Anderson, Fosgitt (copyright infringement with Clip Art) and Breckel (she claimed people who didn't like the comics were "douchebags who shouldn't attach themselves who something that promotes kindness.") were VERY wrong, and they should be fired?

    I mean seriously? No one fucking likes them, plus I say, no wonder why the fandom, as much as I don't like it (not attacking anyone in particular) is motivating themselves against IDW, people just try to explain what they thought were flaws, trying to stay out of unpleasant situations yet the staff just chooses to drive them into one by being very unprofessional and horrible. Anyone else think IDW is the worst comic book company in the world?

    Blind idiotic fanboys like TheIllustriousQ and especially CMC-Scootaloo (more like I'd call him "Peter the My Little Pedophilic Fucking Idiotic Manboy") don't help either.
