This comic was pretty good. Not a 10/10 but I like some of the dynamics here. Ocellus finally got something devoted to herself. Though they did hint at her fears with the image of the changeling species (and by extension hers own image) in What Lies Beneath, it never was fully explored. I like it as a driving dynamic here. A good arc (that maybe possible in the comics) would have been to have it a thing to have her slowly overcome. Have it be constantly driving her actions in a way, sometimes subtle, sometimes direct, with her gradually growing confidence and trust in herself and ponies accepting her. It would still be a bit of a Fluttershy clone but give more of a twist.

> she really shows signs of worry for her friend, watching for her struggles that affect her daily routine.
It was good to have her take initiative with that. I'm trying to recall if she had any hints of this in the show or has she really been only goofy.

>But this story also gives a chance for Twilight to shine as a mentor. It´s ironic how she had these type of mistakes back in the earlier seasons and now, she is teaching lessons from her own experience
THIS. I would have liked to have seen this somewhat more strongly in the show. We saw hints of it but I think if they had this stronger in season 8 it would've helped with the whole feel of transition to the thrown not feeling to sprung on her. I mean, it's like they tried to put her in that roll since Dolores but Dolores has often helped and consoled Twilight more than the other way since her reformation.
