Pony Media: Melowy Vol.2: The Fashion Club of Colors Review · 8:37pm Aug 11th, 2019
A new edition of Pony Media is up as I review the second volume of the Melowy comic series. Even though MLP's Gen 4 is coming to a close this year (which saddens me), that doesn't mean we won't find anything pony related. Fortunately, I was able to find a couple between D'Lirium (the only mature pony title) and Melowy that follows the standards of Gen 4. The first Volume kicked off this series on a high note as Courtney Prowell must have taken inspiration from FIM's Season 1 Premiere. Even though both stories got written in a different manner from each other, however, they share the same quality beginning. It's great to see other pony theme franchises that are actually good outside MLP, something that was always an issue years ago. We honestly need to thank Lauren Faust for setting a high quality standard to write a pony series.
For this second volume, there is a fashion event going on as Flora; a fashionista is holding tryouts for her club. Electra gets interested but believes she is not good enough to enter the contest. However, after being encouraged from her friends both Selena and Electra go together. Eris, who is a part of the fashion club plans to sabotage their efforts after finding a dark magic paint brush left inside her lounge by Circe (the Ruler's agent) secretly. The dark artifact is capable of stripping color from anyone and within Aura. Electra and Selena set out to the fashion tryouts unaware of Eris' plan to cause problems for them. The story direction of this series ever since the first comic's cliff hanger has continued keeping my interests. No doubt, the series' originality and its characters are what attracted me from the start and because it's another quality pony story.
