My Little Pony ~ Friendship Is Magic #1 (IDW)

"Hmm...Did you know that the study of ponies is called 'hippology'?"~Sweetie Belle
















There is no real Kara's Comic for Comic Book Week January 23rd, 2013...........................this ish of "My Little Pony" was from November of 2012. ;S

I do not normally like to say bad things here because I want you all to  comix as much as I do! But I am feeling a little bit under the weather..............*sadface!*.................& I am being a bit of a Gloomy Gertie today! ;b

My bf bought this for his niece for Xmas & after he read it...............oh yah he did! ;b ...............he showed me! OMG! IDW???????? WHY??????????? A comic book aimed at getting young girls in to comix & you make it a scary story about 'pod ponies'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????? With words like 'hippology' & 'chrysalis' & 'koalafications'???????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! & it is to be continued!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????? & you could have at least introduced all of the characters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 8(

I am not going to list the creators or give the comic book a rating.........................but I just think that 'My Little Pony' would be sooooooooooo fabulous to be an introduction to girls just learning to read.................but not if they can not pronounce the words & get discouraged & scared by zombie ponies! & then try to explain to a 6 year old that she has to wait for a month to read the rest of the story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know that IDW wants to make as much money as possible but 6 year olds do not wait anxiously for 1 month!!!!!!! 6 year olds cry & then for get that the story ever existed!!!!!!!!!! :(

I am going to go & play with Pinkie Pie to make myself feel better! Bye! ;*b

assistant editor: Katie Kubert
editor: Brian Cunningham

(Batman created by Bob Kane)




Kara's Comic Book for Comic Book Week January 16th, 2013 is...............................with out a contest "Death Of The Family Collision-Part Three : Ceremony"! 

I can not say any thing about this ish....................the story is fabulous! The art work is some how flaw less with 2 different art teams! The colors are lovelie! & I am personally ing "Death Of The Family"! The Joker is creepy & scary, & Babs is formidable!

I only have 1 question...................if Babs was paralyzed at 17 & took 1 year to walk again..................she is at best 19 now. Dick Grayson ( ;9 ) has always been a little bit younger than Babs so he is 18 & dating the manager of a bank in his book? :S & Babs has not been drawn as a teenager for a long time! :S

...................despite my confusion this book is the best!!!!!!!!!!! 

RATING: 10 Batgirls out of 10!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Until next week! *hugs&kisses!*

ツ 2nd Annual Kara Awards!!!!!! ~ Favorite Event!!!! ツ


DANGER!!!!!!!!!!!! SPOILERS AHEAD IF YOU HAVE NOT READ ANY OF THE NOMINATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am here alone to present the next award which is Kara's Fav Stand Alone Event! I may be should call it Moment though so it is not confused with a big 'event' like "A versus X'............this is an event in a single comic book issue that makes you gasp or cry or laugh! & the nominations are!


  1. The Joker Invades The Gotham City Police Department Headquarters ("Batman #13")!
  2. Diana / Wonder Woman & Clark / Superman Kiss ("Justice League #12")!
  3. Jean-Paul Beaubier / Northstar Marries Kyle Jinadu ("Astonishing X-Men #61")!
  4. Peter Parker Sacrifices Him Self To Save The Captives Of The Phoenix 5 ("A versus X Round 9")!
  5. Peter Parker Dies In Doctor Octopus's Body ("The Amazing Spider-Man #700")
4 of the 5 nominations were all mentioned in the main stream media.................okay may be not this event in the whole 'Death Of The Family' story but 3 of them any way.......................& the winner by a land slide is.........................
The X-Men had split the infinitely powerful Phoenix Force among 5 of their members...............Cyclops & Emma Frost & Namor & Magik & Colossus! The Avengers fighting as hard as they could were barely able through mostly luck to take down Namor................causing his fraction of the force to return to the other 4! Losing on every front the Avengers..............in "A versus X Round 9" from Marvel & a huge collection of creators....................must make a desperate attempt to rescue their captured members including the powerful Thor! They brake in & are confronted by both Magik & Colossus when Peter Parker...........the Amazing Spider-Man...............hurls him self at the 2, hoping against hope to buy his far more powerful team mates an opportunity to escape & regroup. Those team mates teleport away with the freed captives & realize they must instantly return for Peter................knowing that they must retrieve the remains of the hero. They teleport back to find................. 


.....................Peter, broken & barely alive but standing over the fallen bodies of Magik & Colossus! Convincing them that they were a threat to each other & that each should defeat the other to take her power................Peter Parker had defeated 1/2 of the Phoenix by him self! Proving that it is really Peter Parker who is 'the Superior Spider-Man'! :')


We are getting close to the end & both the best comic book & the best series! ツ*

Please welcome song writer Natasha Bedingfield to present Kara's fav writer! :)

Artists get all of the glory but writers are what bring readers back ish after ish....................& the nominations are!

  1. Gail Simone ("Batgirl" & "The Fury of Firestorm : The Nuclear Men")!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was the hardest category to judge! All of these women & men were fabulous but even though 1 of the winner's titles was probably the weakest of all the comix the winner by a false lash was............................

...............................Matt Fraction! "FF" & "Hawkeye" made me laugh & cry happy tears! Soooooooo much fun! & I have convinced my self that he probably was the writer behind my fav scene in "A versus X"...................which I ed soooooooooooooooooooooo much more than the whole entire mini! But I might talk about that later so I do not want to give it away yet! ;)

We will be back! ツ*

  1. Nicola Scott on DC's "Earth 2"!
  2. George Perez on DC's "Worlds' Finest"!
  3. Kevin Macguire on DC's "Worlds' Finest"!

ツ 2nd Annual Kara Awards!!!!!! ~ Favorite Movie!!!! ツ


Joining me to introduce Kara's Fav Movie for 20123 is the eternally handsome Mister Bruce Forsyth............Sir Bruce Forsyth! ;)

& the nominations are!
  1. "The Avengers"!
  2. "Chronicle"!
  3. "The Amazing Spider-Man"!
  4. "The Dark Knight Rises"!
  5. "Ghost Rider 2"!
& the winner is....................

A TIE!!!!!!!!!!! ;b

"The Dark Knight Rises" was not the best of Christopher Nolan's trilogy................but it was soooooooooooo good that I can not include it! Anne Hathaway was FABULOUS as Catwoman!! Gary Oldman has always been the BEST Commissioner James Gordon!!! & Joseph Gordon Lovett & Christian Bale are just yummie!!!! ;9

& Cillian Murphy as Doctor Jonathan Crane . . . is . . . incredible . . . AGAIN!!!!! ❤ HIM!!!!!! ;)
"The Avengers" has to be included! Every bit as fab as "The Dark Knight Rises" but much more of a guy movie..............it is just about possibly the best comic book movie ever made! & it would have been my fav above even "The Dark Knight Rises" if Marvel had let Joss leave in the Maria Hill framing sequence from the Blu Ray! These 2 scenes change the tone of the film & wrap it up even more perfectly than it is already!!!!!!!!!! 

We are almost there! ツ*

Kara may be the only character that has been improved by the new 52.................not from the original version or even the Matrix version....................& the version from just before the new 52 was not really that bad..................but the new Kara has been reading like a real teen age girl who has suddenly lost her whole world. Even while proving to be strong & determined & smart! 

This pic is drawn by the legendary Mr. George Perez............who comes closest to making me like the boots.............I still do not like the boots! 9,9

ツ 2nd Annual Kara Awards!!!!!! ~ Best Cover!!!! ツ


I am back stage with Covergirl P!nk! She & I are going to go through the list of 1 of the most important parts of all comic books.......................& the #1 reason to buy a new comic....................aside from my gorgeous & witty & intelligent opinion ( ;b ).......................the covers! :)
DC Comics "Batgirl #6" with cover art by the fabulous Adam Hughes...............complete with a not-typical-AH! Babs..................read: her chest is not exploding quite soooooo much!.....................popping out from the shadow of Batman! 
Adam Hughes again for Vertigo "Fairest #1".................I ❤ wrap around covers! 9,9

DC "Batman #10" by Greg Capullo with a very simple & dark angelic Bruce holding the cracked Court Of Owls mask! ❤ it! :)
DC shows that they may have lost their story telling ability with the new 52 but they have put a lot of effort in to fab covers! "Rorschach #3" is a clever Rorschach figure by Lee Bermejo that is actually Rorschach sho kicking through a door! ❤ it! Amazing! 8)
But the winner of the SG is.......................DC Comics "DC Universe Presents : Challengers Of The Unknown #6"!

I only read this ish for the breath taking Ryan Sook cover...............wonderfully telling a story that is scary & cheesie & exciting & thrilling all at once & all in 1 page! It draws the reader in by being soooooooo distinct & real even though its muted color scheme is soooooooooo different! & portrays a strong & beautiful women perfectly with out sexualizing her..............Sook is A~M~A~Z~I~N~G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

More after these messages! ツ*
