"How much is too much?

Credit goes to Ryan Coll for the winning caption for my first Meet The Pones caption contest held over on my Patreon page!

My flagrant use of negative space in Meet The Pones strips has caught up to me, and I couldn't resist the temptation to lampshade it here. My philosophy when it comes to comedy is 'less is more', I try to get a joke across in the least amount of text, panels and space to keep it pithy and sharp. The result is often a strip devoid of distraction, using the space between characters for emphasis, to control the reader's gaze and create breaks before a punchline :p Thanks to all those who took part in the contest and keep your eyes peeled for more opportunities in the future!

Meet the Pones is Southern Belle AJ's little cousin. It's how I get out all the black humor that would be out of place in SBAJ, and although it's crude and irreverent it comes from the greatest love of My Little Pony.
