Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to try to get my cutie mark in parkour. Read Full Review
Overall, a pretty light-hearted issue of Friends Forever. Jeremy Whitley for the most part writes a solid tale. (I will let slide that fact that he had Apple Bloom say “anyone” instead of “anypony” and “someone” instead of “somepony,” c'mon editing department!) Discord's first comic appearance is more lackluster than satisfying sadly. The Mane 6 have a nice role later on. So, what we have is a pretty standard MLP comic. If you like the Cutie Mark Crusaders, you'll probably like it. Read Full Review
This story doesn't deserve to be an issue of a comic book mini-series. This deserves to be an episode of a television series.
This issue provides all the randomness that Discord can bring to the party crossed with the Cutie Mark Crusaders trying so many different things to get their cutie marks.
Discord is used much better in this than is "Three's a Crowd," having even the lord of chaos be brought down a peg by the sheer obsession of the CMC on their quest to find a purpose in life.
The ending provides a level of emotion superior to of "Keep Calm and Flutter On" and on par with that of "Twilight Time," but all at once with the addition of a sweet bonding moment between Discord and the CMC.
