'''''My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic''''' was the first, and by far longest running, ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic]]'' comic book series by [[IDW Publishing]]. At just over 100 issues, ''Friendship is Magic'' is also among the longest running comic books based off TV shows
The comic is presented in much the same way as the show. It is a sitcom, slice-of-life, high adventure blend with both episodic and arc-centric storytellig alike, with shades of longform storytelling here and there. Like the show, it primarily features the [[Mane Six]], but fairly frequently has equal emphasis on other characters, such as the [[Cutie Mark Crusaders (Friendship is Magic)|Cutie Mark Crusaders]], [[Equestrian Royal Family]], [[Pets of Ponyville]], and in very rare instances, characters such as {{FIM|Discord}} or [[Tempest Shadow]].

==Features==
For the most part, the comics simply featured stories. Some, however, would feature an additional 'backup story' which as much shorter then the main (often less then 4 pages long), usually with a different artist and writer. These stories were often unrelated to the main story, but in rare instances served to give additional context, such as in {{C|FIM|4}} and {{C|FIM|10}}. In addition to stories, comics occasionally had cover-galleries or interviews with staff members. Digital additions would often include free previews of other comics, usually from new or upcoming miniseries, specials, or annuals.

There is no consistent creative staff, however, [[Andy Price]], [[Sara Richard]], [[Tony Fleecs]], [[Heather Breckel]], [[Agnes Garbowska]], [[Amy Mebberson]], [[Brenda Hickey]], [[Katie Cook]], [[Thom Zahler]], and [[Jeremy Whitley]] are generally associoated with the series more than other staffers.
Almost every issue was lettered by [[Neil Uyetake]] and edited by [[Bobby Curnow]] (later with [[Meghan Brown]] as co-editor), with early issues sporadically having credits saying [[Ted Adams]] published them.
