Comic #2 released today...and it has a big problem
« on: January 02, 2013, 07:07:12 PM »
The art is still awesome, but I'm really disappointed with this one. In several panels, the artist didn't give fluttershy wings and it's very very noticeable. How does this happen? As an artist, you need to know what you're drawing. I can't believe no one caught this before production  :cry:

Wow, really..? Sigh... Sad to say that I'm not even that surprised anymore. Seems quality control on all new pony products just gets lazier and lazier. :(

I just picked up Cover C earlier tonight and haven't had a chance to read it yet. That is disappointing to hear.

:good:

Dang it...I knew I wanted to go to town for something.  Crappy to hear about the errors though.

I got it, it was ok. The covers this time around had really awkward art. I didn't notice the errors however I was half asleep reading it. Now I'll have something to search for.

Oh thats a shame - considering the amount of effort going in to all the covers you would think they could manage not to over look something so fundamental :(

What...?

Comic errors happen all the time, no reason to act like ALL quality control is terrible these days because of a few missing wings.

I'm sure the G1 comics had errors all the time.

Sigh.

Yeah, I'm not upset about it. Comic errors happen allll the time, sometimes on purpose. Not saying this was deliberate, though. I actually find it kind of fun to spot these things. And I don;t see what the huge deal is. We know Fluttershy has wings, do we really need a drawing to prove it to us?

Gosh yes tonnes of errors - but they weren't exactly marketed to the same audience as the new FiM ones.

I understand the errors happen but at the same time such a massive fuss has been made of these comics - they are being marketed largely to a very well voiced comic market, they have 14 variant covers just for issue 1 which is an incredible figure. So while I understand mistakes happen, these aren't novels in content so personally I also would understand someone being a touch disappointed that it wasnt finished off to as near perfection as possible. Although maybe with years to come issue 2 will become unique because of its faults!

As someone who draws ponies, it's easy to forget wings on a pegasus, or a cutiemark, or other kinds of details. Sometimes you don't catch it until it's too late!

I think I'll stick to the G1 comics and their crazy foody adventure goodness.

Not to be too spoilery, but issue #2 has a "male pony collector" parody in it... not sure if I should be pleased or insulted!  XD 
:P
