Alternate Title: SuperGod: The Messiah that Destroyed the World.

What happens when you create your own savior artificially? The scientist Twilight Sparkle will tell us her story of the events that brought Equestria to an end.

Set in the year 2077 in a futuristic Equestria, the best scientists experiment on Ponys and Changelings to give them superpowers.


Additional character tag: Starlight Glimmer, Trixie Lulamoon and Sunset Shimmer

Based of the song: KMFDM - Son of a Gun and Crossover of SuperGod (Yeah, another Warren Ellis comic) :twilightblush:

This is such an interesting premise here, I honestly can't wait to see more of this! Though, I wonder where other members of the mane 6 are. Based on the situation, I highly suspect they are dead, but who am I to say?
Anyways, great first chapter.

Hello MangaBro, thank you for your comment those questions will be answered as the chapters progress but the story focuses mostly on the supergods.

I hope to keep you interested until the end. :twilightsmile:

I honestly wasn't expecting to find a Supergod crossover, ever, on this site.

The narrative flow could use some work. It's markedly different from Ellis. Though, I think that's for the best, considering Twilight is a more known and developed character than Dr. Reddin was in Supergod. So, there's an expected change in tone too.

Now, let's see how did Twilight kill the world.

The moment I read that Equestria alone had seven ‘supergods’ I got this same feeling of hopelessness from the original comic. Granted, the prologue already set that tone, but it’s the fact that Twilight describes the existence of seven living weapons of mass destruction that drives the concept home.

I can see how much the setting diverges from the canon in how Twilight keeps swinging from emotional to cold. Though, it could use some more paralanguage (gestures and tone inflections to complement the dialogue).

The melancholy from the Pinkie flashback really hits from the start. Besides the foregone conclusion, the heavy contrast between Twilight and Pinkie really makes it an emotional scene.

The gross-out tone from Ellis’ original kinds of clashes with the rest of the narrative. Mostly in describing the effect of Kali on the scientists.

The pacing on the creation of Chrysalis was a bit sudden, but it balances out at the flashback recording. I think reading her dialogue makes her more interesting than Krishna in the original since she shows more emotions.



All in all, it’s an interesting take on both, Warren Ellis’ style and the subgenre of MLP post-apocalypse (aponylipse?).
