Should IDW/Renegade Game Studios produce a Renegade Six Comic?

How would you feel about a Friendship is Magic comic-book series or miniseries starring the Renegade Six characters from Renegade Game Studios' My Little Pony Roleplaying Game? It could give us something to fill the gap while we're waiting for G6 (assuming that IDW and Renegade Games would be willing). The Renegade Six are: 

  • Aurora Glow (Pegasus mare): Investigative journalist; best friend of Bubble Brew.
  • Bubble Brew (Unicorn mare): Potion maker who would enjoy a quiet life if her friend Aurora Glow didn't keep drawing her into adventures. 
  • Ditty Riffs (Earth Pony stallion): Musician who became friends with Aurora Glow when she interviewed him for her newspaper. Best friend of Feather Fall. 
  • Feather Fall (Pegasus stallion): A care worker from Cloudsdale who helps the elderly and others in need. Best friend of Ditty Riffs. 
  • Stormy Night (Earth Pony mare): Well-known storyteller drawn to scary stories, though she also loves to make her audience laugh. Introduced Gilly to Bubble Brew. 
  • Gillyam, a.k.a. Gilly (Unicorn filly): Apprentice magician who loves painting and stories, especially those of Stormy Night. Stormy recognized her magical talent and arranged for Gilly to be apprenticed to Bubble Brew. Gilly has yet to discover her cutie mark.

I like the designs for these female characters. But I'm really not a fan of having male characters in the group, especially after watching G5. I would prefer if all of them were female, while the male character would be just more of a secondary role or sidekick just like how it was with Spike in G4 ~☆

Okay, that does make me wonder whether you have similar feelings about the Student Six/Young Six (which also has only two males in the group)? 

EDIT: My spouse has told me stories of another old-school (pre-G4) fangirl who had the attitude that "boy ponies are icky". Not saying that you remind me of them, but if the horseshoe fits....

More or less. I did like Gallus and Sandbar, but more as secondary characters only. That would go for the whole Young / Student Six group actually. I liked them as support characters but they didn't work very well as protagonists for me. I don't really have anything against one or more male characters in the main cast. It's just that given my experience with the series, I don't think the male focused moments work for me, so I don't think I would like more of them. Hitch in my opinion was easily one of the weakest aspects of G5 (which already isn't good for me), and almost all of the male focused episodes of FiM were meh for me. I only liked a few of them, such as the Spike focused episodes from Season 2 ("Secret of my Excess" and "Dragon Quest", and even these still feature the girls a lot). But not the majority. I consider all of the Big McIntosh focused episodes as some of the weakest of the entire show. Spike, Discord, all of them worked perfectly as support/secondary characters in my opinion. But as protagonists, I really didn't enjoy them very much.

But that's just me, I don't know if most people also don't like male characters in the main cast. I do believe Hitch has a lot of fans though.

Are these new characters from G6 or are we still on G5?

No man, Otaku-Sempai said it, they're from a RPG game. There isn't even anything about a G6 so far.

Neither one! These are the default pre-generated characters for the My Little Pony Roleplaying Game and are firmly in the setting of Friendship is Magic

If not Discord then a dragon, I think!
