My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Volume 11
The Ponies go on an adventure to a newly erupted geyser. After some fun playing in the water, the ponies begin to act a bit strange, perhaps even… sinister, in "Ponies of Dark Water." Plus, it’s election season in Ponyville and Mayor Mare looks to have the race in the bag. But when Filthy Rich throws his hat in the ring, all bets are off!

About the author
Thomas F. Zahler
113 books40 followersInto every generation there is born an artist. A being of such amazing talent and skill, that the world is forever changed by the power of his work. He alone stands against the vampires, the demons, and the forces of darkness.
Thom Zahler is not that artist.
He is, however, an extremely hardworking artist, doing what he can with what talent and skill he has. He attended the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art, where he honed his skills and developed strong feelings about the state of New Jersey. Immediately returning to his home state of Ohio upon graduation, he worked as a caricaturist at an amusement park, then later as an advertising artist at a great suburban newspaper, and finally as an art director at an area advertising agency.
Believing that every great success story starts with the phrase “it was a terrible time to start a business,” he quit his day job working for “The Man” in November of 2001 to devote himself full-time to the burgeoning Thom Zahler Art Studios empire.
His artwork has been seen in the nationwide Prilosec advertising campaign, in countless magazines and newspapers all across the country, and in the pages of numerous comic books. He has won awards for both his graphic design and illustration work. A relentless glory hound, he is also a recurring presence on Cleveland broadcast media, both television and radio. He recently made the jump to the national spotlight as a contestant on the syndicated version of “Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?” where he won $32,000. He could have gone farther, but he didn’t know who the hell Charles Goren was.
He is a graduate of the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art. He has drawn silly things and been paid by Marvel Comics, The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo, and Prilosec. He is also the writer and artist of the Cleveland Indians’ “Slider” comic strip. He has written and drawn three graphic novels: “Raider: From the Shadows”, "Raider: A Cold Day in Heaven” and “Raider: Dead Men’s Tales”. His current project, “Love and Capes” has been critically acclaimed and twice part of the national Free Comic Book Day promotion. A collection of the first six issues will be released in November of 2008.
He lives at his palatial estate, Zahlerdu, in Northeast Ohio. Okay, he doesn’t really call it “Zahlerdu” but if he did, it’d be because he liked Orson Wells’ “Citizen Kane” and not that Olivia Newton John disco-and-roller skating movie. It’s not really a palatial estate, either, but it is a nice place.
Zahler tries to make it a point to have at least one life-altering, horribly-scarring relationship every three years or so. There should be another window opening up next Tuesday.

In particular, I enjoyed the second story about the mayoral race. The art work is amazing! I have a signed copy from DragonCon, and as a kid born in the 1980s, I love it!

Awesome as always! All the MLP comics are so good. They're so creative!!!

"Ponies of the Dark Water" was great. I love exploring the darker natures of the mane six. Also Princess Luna makes an appearance. The second story has Filthy Rich running for mayor against Mayor Mare. Ponyville hasn't had an actual election in awhile. It was better than I was expecting as an election story.

This issue contained two solid stories - "Ponies of Dark Water" (a Mane-Six-turned-bad story) and "Election" (no doubt inspired by the then-upcoming 2016 presidential election). There was also a fun full-page extra illustration with a nod to Star Trek - with Fluttershy holding a tribble, etc.

Eeehhhh?
So the story about the election with filthy rich seems to draw upon too much of our real world events and well, is rather read a story for escapism and not commentary on real life.

This is a good issue with some good story concepts that make for some exciting moments.

This one was maybe a bit too topical with the election.

Wow, this is the craziest set of stories so far! From the madness of the waters to the history/election of Mayor Mare, it got me so fascinated!

Loved the evil fountain water. An oldie but a goodie trope-wise.
