From what I saw so far in the actual story, they freaking did left Spike out from the story.

In the book glory was supposed to sparkler in the my little pony generation

pinkie pim hi mpinke pie surprise giggles nice to meet you imsurpise

@Background Pony #4300
Yeah, I thought they always were.

@Phoenixflambe
Does this mean that the first four incarnations of My Little Pony alongside G5 will always be connected as different MLP dimensions/universes? You know. Like a multiverse. Or should I say ponyverse.

@Background Pony #6782
It might, Grackle and Dyre look like typical Equestria Girls. Makes me wonder if Reeka, Draggle and Hydia will undergo the same changes. This may be a crossover but a special one.

Could this mean that this comic crossover is canon to both G1 and G4 as dimensions?

@Background Pony #4A18  

 
As long as you not forget about the Characters of G4,it will live forever

I’m actually looking to pick this one up.

@Background Pony #5E8B  
It’s pretty clear that Equestria Girls would end along with the rest of G4. There’s 0 word on continuations and it wouldn’t make sense to run a G4 spinoff alongside G5.

@Phoenixflambe  
Are you kidding me! There’s still no explanation or official reports wether or not Equestrian Girls could end!

@IceKitsune  
Given how he’s not included in the cover, something is being screwed up already.

@nightshroud96  
There is no way they are leaving either Spike out of this. G1 Spike is one of the earlier toys in the line (he was released with the Dream Castle set) and played a pretty big part in the show and specials. Beyond that a Spike has been in every Generation of MLP (Tales is considered G1). Leaving either of them out would be a complete failure.

Bummed it looks like Spike is going to be left out pretty hard right there..

@Background Pony #2C6A  
Equestria girls.

@Phoenixflambe  
What won’t be continued?

@Red-Supernova  
Sorry, but G4 (mostly at the end of this year) are coming to an end, though the fans may still continue to do art after this year if they would like.

The official manga already did a crossover with G1.

@Red-Supernova  

 
The end of G4 on simultaneous fields has a common characteristic; untidy, conflict-ridden work by the crews responsible for the scripts and by Hasbro who have tended to make untimely decisions rather than follow established intentions and plans. IDW simply followed DHX in this “tradition” that Hasbro took the lead in, and it seems that the spirit of cooperation and diligence have taken a holiday. Hasbro will focus very unilaterally on G5 without an emergency plan in mind, when G4 was launched both the timing and choice of crew - Faust was just one of many who contributed greatly to the success - was very outstanding for Hasbro.
 
It is noticeable that there are conflicting ideas and ambitions that had prevailed within MLP that in many ways reflect unfortunate trends in the American entertainment industry in recent years. Has the polarized situation in American society prevailed in comics, TV series, the movies and online?
 
Everything has become very untidy in contrast to when the G4 began. G5 does not start well; the teaser is still missing despite the fact that everything else about the new G5 has now been released in consumer goods and toys. It’s not just Hasbro; the same trend is seen everywhere.

@Background Pony #2C6A  
It’s part of g4 so it won’t be continued.

@Background Pony #2124  
Actually, Friendship Is Magic ended in October 12, 2019 and Equestria Girls didn’t end in November 2, 2019 and because DHX no longer produced Equestria Girls, it’s still undetermined who is gonna replaced DHX to animated more Equestria Girls in the future or not.

@Macaroni C-Pony  
Well, G4 officially ended in October 12, 2019. But it didn’t need here. I would agree that after 102 issues, the end of the “Friendship Is Magic” comics will lead into the future events of the final episode of the show “The Last Problem”.

Farewell and adieu you ship faring mares, farewell and adieu you mares of Spain.

The End of G4, the comics were the only thing left. In September 2019 Friendship is Magic ended, in December 2019 Equestria Girls ended. In 2021 Pony Life ended, and now finally on September 2021, IDW’s MLP: FIM comic series will end.
 
Still good run for G4.

@Background Pony #CB97  
So FiM’s comic continuation is being cut off because of the comic industry collapsing due to Covid-19 and how they treated a promising artist? I find the part around Whitley hard to believe since I’m cutting IDW a bit of slack since this is meant to be a continuation of the show.
