Everyone who is a nerd at heart has something they enjoy. I love seeing random statistics to things... which might explain some of my weirdness. But Twilight and Moondancer like it too in this rather carefree little comic to get people feeling good! Nothing sets up a good week quite like population data figures! I know I love seeing just how far Cleveland and Detroit can...

Starlight has found out a way to get the mysterious stallion at work to flip his name tag over. But for some reason, I feel this is a friendship building of fairly like minds.
Admittedly in panel one, when Starlight says, "I like your big truck" it was innuendo for something else...
In early concepts this comic was going to show Gray being interested in cars, like how St...

This upcoming story arc won't be one of doom and gloom. It will be one of encouragement and determination. Don't let the beginnings of this fool you. As the promo teaser said a few days ago, VINYL WILL BE ELEVATED. 2021 is a new year, and it's time for some good positivity.
It will also explore the "masks we wear." Sometimes we aren't ourselves i...

It is still so weird to me only doing two episodes a week, but for right now, it is helping so much. I am putting in very long hours at work this time of year, so this really helps reduce the stress. I do hope to jump back to three episodes a week once this period if over... We will see.
But to the comic. It's a pretty simple one as we lead up to a story arc coming next ...

Thanks to my lighter episode load a week, I had some good time to actually DRAW a fun episode and visually make it silly. There is so much stuff going in this comic between Twilight, Spike, and Starlight. We even get a first time appearance from a pony named Cinnamon Chai. We also get to witness Starlight get intimate with her food again. As she said before, she is "pass...

I can tell you all right now, that moving to two episodes a week has relieved SO much pressure from me. I actually have time to think and put more effort into each comic. I am truly shocked at how much this has made things easier for me. Thank you everyone for allowing me to do that and not feel pressured to do otherwise.
As for this episode, I just really wanted ...

The first new comic of 2021 was released on Monday of this week and here it was. Spike's just doing his normal thing, cleaning up. But it seems this new cleaner has a surprise no one quite expected.
A clean start to the new year!

After Christmas especially, people tend to have way more garbage and in this modern age, many more Amazon boxes... When you live next door to the neighborhood association President, you definitely want to look good in front of her.
Hope you have a nice week!

So as you know, since 2015 we've followed a Mon, Wed, Fri schedule. If we tried out a two episode a week schedule, would you think it is better to do a Tues / Thurs release schedule as opposed to a Mon/Fri?
Originally I was thinking Monday/Friday but that would allow for too much space in-between days with nothing.
A Tues/Fri release would allow each comic to have one day in t...

I've not been wanting to do this for awhile now. But... it's happening now. I realize this comic series may be the biggest moments of my dream job, which is to share a comic and have people who love it and read it. It has taken me to such highs and I truly love the people who I have met along the way.
But 2020, I came to some startling realizations that I knew were build...

Don't think too hard about it. Spike's a dragon and in the show he can hang out in lava... but as you know, AT&F is different... and I guess he can't, lol. He's just a bro who likes it cool, like his moves...

I hope everyone is well. I am taking a few days off and will be back after Christmas. I hope you all can enjoy some time off too and relax.
As with every year, the busy time with my real job starts at the beginning of the year. So that may alter the amount of comics that come out. I warn this every year, but so far I've never not did 3 episodes a week, haha!...

The best ideas usually come at the weirdest times. While working, or driving, in the shower, just before bed... This one came to be just before I fell asleep and I had to get up and write it down. Christmas lights burn out all the time and I don't know why! I put brand new lights up and already two strings of lights stopped working! Argh!
Enjoy in Starlight's struggle. &...

This has been a different year to say the least. There are so many people who are around us we take for granted every day. Whether it's the cashier, the dude at the deli, the paramedic lorry driver, the construction guy sticking reflector tabs on the road, our friends, or our family... we should tell them how much they mean to us once in awhile. It might do more than make thei...

So close to being caught up on episodes here at Patreon. One episode away! Then I can release stuff before it's been posted again! Don't know how I fell so far behind.
So here we see Twilight in a coat, sunglasses, and a hat that magically sits behind her head like Applejack's! Perfect logic! This will be part of a small two part arc with no real depth to it,...

A little word play in the title of this episode. Nothing ground breaking, just some simple comics this week. We all love our parents, but it's nice when we can be alone again.

Overall a wild night for Twilight, but at least it ends well. Now be careful, there is some exceedingly wild and risqué hand holding in this episode. We might have to slap a PG-13 rating on this episode. What's next? Pats on the back? Yikes. This series is getting far too steamy for me.
Moondancer has to give Twi a little bump to get things going right...

Don't laugh, I stink at drawing hands... but here is something you may or may not have noticed. Since AT&F started in 2014, we've always shown Spike with four fingers. Why? I don't know. We became so stubborn through the years we didn't want to change in the name of tradition. I guess we thought it people would notice, despite how weird and awkward it was somet...

This may seem a bit harsh, but don't worry. It's all in good fun. And the final outcome will be nice. Parents can be so oblivious, then when you throw in two friends who like to ruffle feathers, you get a rather embarrassing evening.

All right, time for an instant replay. We can see the surprise attack lurking behind the couch... you see it, yep, it's the horn of Twilight Velvet. Meanwhile Night Light and Lawrence chat normally with suspecting a thing. But what's this? Velvet makes her appearance then slides naturally into the conversation! Practically no time wasted as she takes control of the conve...

You all saw the early progress photos of this comic last week, and here is the final edition. A simple misunderstanding.
Our crack writers also have a version that ends with Spike and Lily "going to town" after the guests leave and Starlight walks in on them. But it hasn't been drawn yet and we're unsure if we're going to go there, at least now. But it is going to happen...

It has been a bit since we've seen Twilight's family. Since last Christmas!
How can you make holidays better than being with family? Having your roommate bring in a surprise guest! This will be a celebration Twilight won't soon forget.
This episode is for EVERYONE who has parents.
Any celebration stories worth sharing?
