"Story Contains Spoilers from Superior Spiderman"

Page from Coco's journal:

Things are starting to look up for me. I thought that after my last two assistants betrayed me and tried to steal my designs for the competition that I would have to finish all my work by myself. Thought that I'd never be able to trust another pony in this city. Manehatten is a place of dreams, but it can also be a place of greed. Wish Rarity had told me that.

But now I've found a pony that I can trust...kinda. He can be mean and arrogant, but I can see the kinder side of him that he tries to hide. But why does he try to hide it? Why doesn't he want to be praised for his good deeds. Guess I'll never understand Dr. Otto Octavius.

Otto will be ponified and will still retain the spider powers. I have a reason for this. And yes, this is the SUPERIOR spiderman. Don't give me crap about Parker.

I OWN NOTHING!

Entrusted with a political mission of sincere importance, Spike has been gone along with Twilight and Zecora for five years from Ponyville. And when they return, Spike is surprised to find he had attracted the feelings of a certain mare with eyes brighter then emeralds and a voice that puts Sirens to shame, but with the twists of reentering Equestrian society, will Spike be able to admit his own opinion before she leaves for Canterlot forever?

Brainiac has existed for eons. Seen planets and solar systems rise and fall. Witnessed stars die. Now he's in Equestria. But something's different about this world. He must blend in if he wishes to conquer and leave. A new body would work perfectly.

This version of Brainiac is a little bit of a combination of the animated series one and the one from the comics.

I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING

A once well respected resident of Ponyville, who had been sent to prison for a crime he did not commit, has been released. But being as almost all of the townsfolk still believe he did it, and have angered-driven hatred towards him, helping this poor stallion to get back into society may be more difficult than the Main 6 had thought, even with the help of the very detective from Fillydelphia who cleared his name. Now all hope relies on Sapphire Shores, The Pony of Pop who makes a stop to Ponyville to visit a certain sick filly, and Princess Luna, the princess of the night who has watched this stallion's suffering for sometime to help fix everything. Will the pop star and princess save this poor prisoner? Read to find out in this drama like story.

The year is 1938, and Private Investigator Octavia Melody is an excellent detective. Possibly the best in Equestria.
In accordance to her occupation, she was invited by Prince Blue Blood, an eccentric with a most definitely questionable sense of humour, to a dinner party of his organisation and to a personal exhibition. An exhibition of the perfect murder.
This exhibition is interrupted, however, when Prince Blue Blood is found dead whilst his dinner guests played bridge only a few yards away. Of the eight guests, four of them are well-established investigators, Octavia included. Now the investigators must determine which of the remaining four guests is a murderer. Can Octavia discover the murderer before they kill again?

A couple of weeks ago, an army of changelings invaded Canterlot. While the changelings lost, the city has been plagued by paranoia and uncertainty ever since. Changelings spies are being hunted down, tabloids are causing some serious hysteria, and the Elements of Harmony... well, they went home shortly after the Wedding.

I am from a group well outside of Canterlot, a group that might have a plan for turning this entire situation around. We even scored a meeting with some very powerful ponies. After a few nights of unproductive talks, however... this might be my last chance to prove that I can do this. One last meeting... one last chance to make my case.

You know... no pressure.
