You know, I don't like the story arch you've crafted with Spike as much as much as what you've crafted with Starlight Glimmer, but I can't deny it you're really good at adding an...interesting new angle to the show.



When Twilight said "You were given to me as an egg" in Dragon Quest I just thought "WTF?" and washed it out of my head canon. But you actually explore the implications of this. It almost makes it seem like Celestia has a bit of...twisted mad scientist, for lack of a better term, hidden beneath her benevolence. Not that she's a cackling Mengele, but she has a bit of a sneaky unethical side...hard to explain.



You have a way of kind of...unveiling a necessary dark drama that lies hidden beneath the veil of innocence in the show that I really like.



For some reason I feel your story comics go really well with the Bioshock 2 soundtrack, but that's probably just me. Or maybe because the game focused on the concept of the innocence of childhood mixed with the power and drama of adulthood. Maybe that's what "Innocence of a child" really means...Not their character, but the way they see the world.



Ugh, now I feel like a loser writing so much about a deviant art comic. Anyway, while I'm not going to adopt this into my head canon like Starlight's background, it's an interesting take none the less.
