BABSCon Gets the Story From Heather Nuhfer & Bobby Curnow


Kapow! Blamo! Wham! Apart from writing and illustration, what makes a comic book special is the story and dialogue that narrates the action. Colorful pastel ponies (while infinitely adorable) can’t tell their own story, and that’s where writers and editors work their magic. From speech bubbles to characterization, there can be no doubt that the IDW My Little Pony comic writers are nothing but magic!

Talented wordsmith and self-proclaimed eater-of-pie, Heather Nuhfer is the American comic writer that brought us issues 5-8 and 13-16 of IDW’s My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic comic series. She also has written for The Vampire Diaries, Strawberry Shortcake, Simpsons One-Shot Wonders: Lisa, Scooby Doo, and several others.

Stand-up citizen Bobby Curnow, writer and editor, is known to us in the MLP fandom for editing the entire IDW My Little Pony line of titles (and writing My Little Pony Micro-Series #4: Applejack!). His other comic book writing credits include Battle Beasts, Godzilla Legends, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Heavy Metal. Additionally, Bobby has written for Ghostbusters, Godzilla, G.I. Joe: Infestation, Jurassic Park, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The X Files: Conspiracy, and many others.

Heather Nuhfer and Bobby Curnow join our spectacular lineup of Guests of Honor including Tara Strong, Andrea Libman, Cathy Weseluck, Peter New, Claire Corlett, Ian James Corlett, Brian Drummond, Brynna Drummond, Marÿke Hendrikse, Danny Ingram, Steffan Andrews, G.M.
