Comic book canon is about annoying as having your shower head replaced with a hornet's nest. If I put a horn on filly Cadence people whine about some obscure comic where Cadence was a pegasus, but when I take it off of filly Cadence people will say the horn's missing because she had a horn as a filly. There's just no winning with these people- I think my odds of finishing Dark Souls on the first try would be more likely; it'll surely beAnd why black? Rarity didn't need to turn black to be an evil character; she just needed Sweetie Belle gnawing at her back and she'd be ripping Ponyville apart in no time at all. Frankly I think Nightmare Rarity was a product of boredom and a lack of willingness to make Celestia out as the bad guy. I mean, look at this; just look at how badass Princess Celestia would look she went down a couple shades of brightness- it's badass! Furthermore how is Twilight Sparkle even supposed to handle that? "Alright girls, get your elements of harmony! Wait, where's Rarity? Oh-".Lol ranting is fun, this has been Nightmare Rarity with a slightly modded hairstyle and wardrobe. Have some internet.
