Andy Price is one amazing artist I think.

Well that's open for debate, they are official comics both FIM and Friends Forever are licensed by Hasbro. But the show does not follow the comics.

My opinion is yes it's completely cannon but that's me. Nightmare Rarity was part of the comics to.

oh thanks for the info!
im willing to read them :3

The guys that write the comics have came out to say that though they are writing in the same universe, they recognize that the stories between the comics and the show may - or ultimately will - conflict and they're OK with that. The place the show higher up in the canonical pecking order and the show can and may write out - or over - anything in the comics.

So the comics are only canon in so far as to fill anything that show has not touched or in the event any adventures to do conflict with show canon. But in that, they're probably as strong as any headcanon between fans. The only difference is they're officially licensed to market their comics.

But Andy Price is a magnificent beast, almost as much as MA Larsen.

oooh i get it perfectly! thanks! :3
that canonical priority is the same than star wars canon chart, where the movies are in a higher priority than extended universe (novels, videogames, cartoons etc)

but i think last week they changed the rules because of the new movies and now extended universe is 100% non-canon. not sure
