Comics (real world)

Since the mid 1980s, comic books have become a major part of the My Little Pony series. In the early days, comics were used to tell simple stories and readers could requests new stories with their favorite pony characters. In the IDW Publishing era, readers could no longer request stories and the stories themselves generally became far more complex, sometimes even spanning multiple issues and medium.
