Fun fact, Horseshoe Bay is an actual bay in North-West Vancouver, just a short drive away from the DHX building. Sure, this fact would be more fun if it was DHX doing the comics and not IDW, but BAH! *shot* (also, I love hyjinx comedic adventure stories like this, so this particular story arc really hit home for me :D)
raphaela ratzlaff I don't think so. In the same episode, Twilight even says it's a spell that can copy the form of a different creature and turn them into it. Plus, RD begged Twilight to turn her into either a dragon or griffon at the end of the episode.
Captain, the meems are catching up soooooooo I would like to report that we are all going to die *Takes sip of pineapple drink* Also, I spat in your soup, every single day.
The captain sold all but one of the small boats to by his outfit, he then traded the walking plank for magic beings and the beans for a cow, who then stole the last boat. The captain has not had the best business sense
Remembers me at the Simpson Comic where there is no Beer on Earth anymore and it gets replaced by pinapple juice causing Homer to search for the recepy in egypt
This story inspired me to write some scenic material and for a while I tried my hand at fanfiction, but I found that my talents don't lie in that direction.
Needed a daily dose of Silver. Somehow, that lil' ol' hippogriff makes me happy. Guess it's just the fact that I'm a hippogriff meself. I need a hippogriff profile pic ;~;
Yarg. M8s were here to stand along capt'n Silvah Quill to listen to good old pirate tales about yer fella ponies on a adventure through the 7 seas!!! I'm going to buy yer comics and going to learn how to read to do so. Where's me cider?
I believe the crab glowing from too many energy drinks is a reference to Fallout 3 of all things (considering the Fallout Equestria fanfic fandom having been around a while by the time of this comic's publishing). In Fallout 3 you encounter glowing mirelurks (mutated blue crabs) in the Nuka Cola bottling plant that were further mutated into "Nukalurks" by radioactive materials used in the production of Nuka Cola Quantum.
When this video started out and you where talking about pirates I was thinking 'this like a one piece cross over?' Them you pointed out the Luffy pony in the background I screamed. Legit screamed.
Funfact about this arc: There's a fully done cover that had to be sent back and partially redone because the artist drew the mermares looking like G4 versions of Seaponies instead of the book versions. Ther's also a few development sketches of Jewel that show her name was going to be Coral but they were told to change it due to it being a name from the book. Makes me wonder if the references in this arc were put in after the mandates under the assumption that, if they were being asked for changes by the same people who would later let Dragontown through, it must be well known. Also I'd just like to take a moment to thank youtube for having removed the ability to copy and paste. Writing that out again wasn't tedious at all.
Ay captain silver beard! Another great episode to venture through! Ye be a great captain, and I be hopin you be our captain once again for another episode! I say to you, yar!
Wow. You actually managed to keep up that Pirate voice the whole episode. Good on you. This was one of the comic sets that makes me smile a little. Don't get me wrong, I view all of the comics as non-canon, due to how fast and loose many of them play the facts as presented by the show, but I find that the comics are often as enjoyable to read as- if not moreso than- other non-canon stories.
The fanfiction "Rites of Ascension" takes a rather interesting and convenient approach to new appendages. While it does a lot that is most certainly not canon, the "hybrid" ponies as a rare possibility make something like *not noticing an alicorn* a lot easier. (I mean, alicorns in that universe *always* have the ethereal mane, so that point kinda makes it hard to have a disguise, but yeah. The concept of random hybrid ponies adds some depth to pony genetics and makes a pony with a horn and wings not immediately a princess.)
not that kind of crabs XD love this episode and all the pirate slang you old scalywag, and you said you were part pidgeon, now you are part parrot you old salty barnacle XD
+PCachu I'm kinda glad there wasn't. The best way to create new memes and original ideas is to not rely on the old memes every single time they come up.
Wow Silver Quill you are an hippogrif of many talents you sure haven't been holding back other hidden perks? lol love the pirate voice btw :) great review
I don't think even the memer's know where the crab meme is from... I think that's the whole idea! The concept is both ludicrous, unexplainable and genuinely fucking cool XD
I found out about this video today so, allow me to go 6 days to the past----- *6 DAYS EARLIER* 'Twas an awesome review you got there, Capn' Silverbeard, and while i agree on the comic as well, me thinks you forgot to adress one tiny thing:.....why was the rum gone?
When I first found this parchment awash in the brine, I dinnae have much hope fer it, fer the tale of Nightmare Rarity was the sort that could sink men's hearts like the Pequod come across the Great White Whale. 'Twas better than that, I say. Raise yer tankards, lads and lasses, and drink to the creators' fortunes! Now pardon me while I go listen to me Alestorm albums.
Avast ye, Cap'n Silver Beard! This be a mighty good review of a fun 2-issue comic book yarn featuring our four-legged heroines, filled with swashbuckling adventure and laughs! I be sick n' tired of ye controversy cannon-balled at Twilight's Sparkle's princess ascension and ye affects it may have on ye MLP FIM-verse! She worked hard for it, achieved many herculean feats and went on so many voyages and quests to earn such a title! What matters be that she still be ye same old Twilight underneath them wings! She be a great hero! She be BEST PONY! Princess Twilight be here to stay! Arrrrr! (Talking like a pirate be fun!)
I actually like that the pirates fled like they did. That's also the case in real life with mercenaries. If they feel the risk outweighs the reward they just abandon you and couldn't care less if that get's you killed. That's a big difference between friends and allies. Friends care about you and allies don't.
I am a pretty unicorn. I will trot into the ever-free forest and pick each and everyone of you maggots an arrangement of flowers. THEY WILL BE LOVELY. DO I MAKE MY SELF CLEAR
In the lunaverse, they introduce the idea of pegacorns, ponies who superficially resemble alicorns in appearance but are merely pegasus-unicorn hybrids, which apparently is different from an alicorn, in the lunaverse at least. They are also specified to be rare but not uncommon, with most ponies knowing what they are. so, that might be a good explanation why Princesshood may not be immediately obvious.
do you plan on reviewing Night of the Living Apple? if not, what was your general thought on it, because I happened upon part 2 of that madness and foolishly bought it, not realizing I would be totally lost (curse Price's immaculate subscription cover)
0:12 "I swear, if he will speak in this pirate accent all the video, he will not wake up in the morning.."So, Silver, what is your most prefered way to.. Um... Destroy ponies?
Yar, indeed. I know all of his crew in that shot as well, matey. The green pony with green hair be the toughest samurai-like swordfighter you'll ever meet. He has the ability to grow six front hooves and three hands to carry nine swords at once. And the blue pony with the blonde hair, the finest chef will you ever meet. His rear hooves have such power in them that he can light them on fire. >:D
Personally I always thought that in-universe it's less obvious that one is an alicorn, since you'd pay less attention to the fact one has all of his arms and legs (or in this case horn and wings) and more to ones mane and coat color, body type and such. And Twilight became more recognizable as her general look became known. Also Captain Hoofbeard? Would that mean he's Chuck Norris? Anyhoof. this was a really fun comic >^^
Luffy and Nami ponified is now cannon..................Oh, well amy as well do the rest of the Strawhat Pirates; especially Brook, I've always thought the concept of a skeletal pony is awesome. Give Ghost Pony Rider a buddy to level with.
"The Van With Free Candy"
jesus fucking christ I spat my tea everywhere
That's quite a MARVELOUS outfit you got there!
Slander! No wait, it's print.... Libel!
Me had forgetten what today be! Thanks be to ye for this most jolly of reminders!
And as for ye review - it be worth many pieces of eight!

Best Pirate franchise ever.
But I LOVE your pirate voice.☠❤ In all seriousness, this is one of my favorites of your reviews.
This is quite fun to watch just hours before I go to see the MLP movie for the first time.
What a MARVELOUS Captain uniform you got there, Silver -wink wink-
Fun fact, Horseshoe Bay is an actual bay in North-West Vancouver, just a short drive away from the DHX building.
Sure, this fact would be more fun if it was DHX doing the comics and not IDW, but BAH! *shot*
(also, I love hyjinx comedic adventure stories like this, so this particular story arc really hit home for me :D)
i was happy to see a ponyfied Luffy in this comic
Fighting crabs after a visit to the Van with Free Candy, wonderful.
"After Stettin' up Hoofbeard whith some gill and fins, ((sarcastically)cause Twilight can do that now),"
Um... Remember It Ain't Easy Being Briezees?
+Princess Celestia Good point, but Twilight had to read and learn about that spell first.
BBBHuey
Exactly, so from that episode onwards, she could do that spell over again if she wanted to.
But would that mean it would have any defrent result? Just saying not all spells are the same
raphaela ratzlaff
I don't think so. In the same episode, Twilight even says it's a spell that can copy the form of a different creature and turn them into it. Plus, RD begged Twilight to turn her into either a dragon or griffon at the end of the episode.
Princess Celestia ah, I see
Captain, the meems are catching up soooooooo I would like to report that we are all going to die
*Takes sip of pineapple drink*
Also, I spat in your soup, every single day.
YAR that ye explains thy soup but for now let's ride this wind to land or if ye have no option then get thy small boats ready
The captain sold all but one of the small boats to by his outfit, he then traded the walking plank for magic beings and the beans for a cow, who then stole the last boat.
The captain has not had the best business sense
Remembers me at the Simpson Comic where there is no Beer on Earth anymore and it gets replaced by pinapple juice causing Homer to search for the recepy in egypt
+Gungelion Love the reference to Silver Quill's own comics.
It was too tempting to pass up
Horseshoe Bay, horse pun and BC reference at the same time. Well played.
THE ENDING MUSIC IS BLOW THE MAN DOWN!
Why do I like that?
This story inspired me to write some scenic material and for a while I tried my hand at fanfiction, but I found that my talents don't lie in that direction.
Arr, Capn' Silverbeard gave a right fine review! A cheer and a swig of grog for yer work!
Nice to knowing ya, Cap'n Silver Quill! (Rowing away) Hey Ho, Hey Ho, a pony's life for me.
The Goonies reference was priceless! And great job with the pirate talk arrr!
way to stay in character there, matey!
Ye try to make me walk the plank, I'll lob ye head off, and mount it on the prow, Mr. Quill!!!
Needed a daily dose of Silver.
Somehow, that lil' ol' hippogriff makes me happy.
Guess it's just the fact that I'm a hippogriff meself.
I need a hippogriff profile pic ;~;
I did these issues and I loved the story. It was awesome.
Yarg. M8s were here to stand along capt'n Silvah Quill to listen to good old pirate tales about yer fella ponies on a adventure through the 7 seas!!!
I'm going to buy yer comics and going to learn how to read to do so.
Where's me cider?
Is it Talk-like-a-Pirate-Day already?
Also I'm curious if it was One Piece, what kind of Devil Fruit would Silver eat?
+Greycat R Silver spoon?
+Greycat R probably something that would make him unable to feel any kind of physical pain
Say what? So a Logia type?
*****
that's a scary though... *shuders*
wonder what kind of element would he rather be though...
Oh! Silver quill! well...he migth enjoy the Op-Op fruit, cause he's kinda a troll
I wasn't even expecting a video from you Silver Quill man this one is hysterical😄.
Yaar, me be trained to piratin' thru Sid Meier's !
I would prefer to train under Captain Harlock and Queen Emereldas myself...

Legit screamed.
;-; Not the plank please, there are sharks and technicolor paintball squids. ;-;
Wait a sec- *attempts to steal Cap'n Silvers Desserts*
*flies away* "JUST 'CAUSE I'M A FILLY DOES'NT MEAN I CAN'T FLY OR STEAL YOUR DESSERTS!"
+Tyler Presco ;)
I read this out loud (I repeat funny things) and was like "there are sharks and technicolor paintball squid-GASP!" Awesome Splatoon reference.
I really love your pirate accent and yet I'm still drunk that I can understand your pirate accent. This the life to be a drunken guy lol
I always knew Silver secretly had a thing for Rainbow ;) He makes for a dashing pirate too :P
Funfact about this arc: There's a fully done cover that had to be sent back and partially redone because the artist drew the mermares looking like G4 versions of Seaponies instead of the book versions.

Officially my favorite opening of yours. Also, the way ye balanced your mic be nice! Sounds a but different than the others, and me likes it.
Id love to see more of your reviews done on more of the comics. : D
Ay captain silver beard! Another great episode to venture through! Ye be a great captain, and I be hopin you be our captain once again for another episode! I say to you, yar!
Wow. You actually managed to keep up that Pirate voice the whole episode. Good on you.

Pirate dash is awesome
4:16 Luffy pony confirmed
I like "Captain Silverbeard"! Nice expression of content and character!
Aye, Silver! This be another pleasing review, with clever jokes and a creative spin. This review be goin' in me treasure chest!
Good Job for plugging mbs show. Very underrated podcast imo.

- ponies fighting giant crab
- no MGS Crab Battle-based meme
- INTERNET I AM DISAPPOINT
+PCachu I know right?
+PCachu I'm kinda glad there wasn't. The best way to create new memes and original ideas is to not rely on the old memes every single time they come up.
+CW Tyger
This is not about new ones, Its a bout the classics
Damn it internet!
Why does talk like a pirate day have to be on my birthday but I'm glad it is because i get a review to watch!
Wow Silver Quill you are an hippogrif of many talents you sure haven't been holding back other hidden perks? lol love the pirate voice btw :) great review
My birthday is actually today, so an upload from you was very welcome!
Is it weird that it makes me super happy you uploaded this on talk like a pirate day?
I don't think even the memer's know where the crab meme is from...
I think that's the whole idea! The concept is both ludicrous, unexplainable and genuinely fucking cool XD
Strawhat powers engage! IRON PIRATE FRANKY SHOGUN!
Hey, I have an idea of a very fun, exciting, and quite interesting con in the humble Boston, MA! Boston ComicCon is truly worth the trip!
Looks like you took this holiday pretty seriously 😆
Now I know it's gonna be a good day when ever my favorite hippogriff posts a new video :)
i thought mr.krab was meant to be running the krusty crab
Ahoy Mattie's Friendship is the true Treasure when it comes to My Little Pony
@Silver-Quill you should make a video where all of your selves meet each other. like orange quill, super quill, etc
I was expecting a Edward Kenway pony to show up. At lass me heart be broken and my dreams be turned to sunder
I found out about this video today so, allow me to go 6 days to the past-----
*6 DAYS EARLIER*
'Twas an awesome review you got there, Capn' Silverbeard, and while i agree on the comic as well, me thinks you forgot to adress one tiny thing:.....why was the rum gone?
Nice costume sliver quill I'm a big fan of your videos

shiver me timbers, a Silver quill video.
When I first found this parchment awash in the brine, I dinnae have much hope fer it, fer the tale of Nightmare Rarity was the sort that could sink men's hearts like the Pequod come across the Great White Whale. 'Twas better than that, I say. Raise yer tankards, lads and lasses, and drink to the creators' fortunes! Now pardon me while I go listen to me Alestorm albums.
Maybe that river in Ponyville is conected to sea?

This be a mighty good review of a fun 2-issue comic book yarn featuring our four-legged heroines, filled with swashbuckling adventure and laughs!

So he's 10 percent pigeon, 10 percent parrot and 80 percent lion on his fathers side and all horse on his mothers side.
WoW.

so, that might be a good explanation why Princesshood may not be immediately obvious.
I'd like to see a comic with a dispute between merpony and sirens.
So expected the Rarity vs Crabs. But I thought it will be in the part where actually fighting a giant crab.
I first made my pirate OC before these came out and now they're stealing me thunder!
I really hope you can do the mirror dimension one and the newest attack of the Apple one too please.
I can tell you had fun with this! X3
yar! where ye get thee fancy accordion music?
still waiting the episodes review...
i miss watching u review episodes they were always so funny plz try and catch up
Loved it. Good review, matey.
do you plan on reviewing Night of the Living Apple? if not, what was your general thought on it, because I happened upon part 2 of that madness and foolishly bought it, not realizing I would be totally lost (curse Price's immaculate subscription cover)
0:12 "I swear, if he will speak in this pirate accent all the video, he will not wake up in the morning.."So, Silver, what is your most prefered way to.. Um... Destroy ponies?
Yar!! That there straw hat be the strongest pirate on the high seas!!! You can see some of his mighty crew in the tavern!! >:D
Yar, indeed. I know all of his crew in that shot as well, matey. The green pony with green hair be the toughest samurai-like swordfighter you'll ever meet. He has the ability to grow six front hooves and three hands to carry nine swords at once. And the blue pony with the blonde hair, the finest chef will you ever meet. His rear hooves have such power in them that he can light them on fire. >:D
When will yu revu canterlot boutique.
Episode After the Facs, please._.
Personally I always thought that in-universe it's less obvious that one is an alicorn, since you'd pay less attention to the fact one has all of his arms and legs (or in this case horn and wings) and more to ones mane and coat color, body type and such. And Twilight became more recognizable as her general look became known.
Also Captain Hoofbeard? Would that mean he's Chuck Norris?
Anyhoof. this was a really fun comic >^^
Please at least post your reaction to Crusaders of the lost Mark.
This 'ere be my favorite video by cap'n Silver Beard!
As well as the only one by him
As well as the only one by him
