Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for August 22, 2021

Perhaps she expected to come out purple. Like Millie once seemed to hope for.

Caterpillars literally dissolve into liquid and rearrange themselves in the pupal stage, which can’t be pleasant for a unicorn.

Marigold totally wants to be an alicorn.

She wanted to grow Pegasus wings and become the first…. wait for it……… PEGACORN!

if not by magic, how was Marigold able to make a chrysalis?

You know there’s that new cartoon Spidey and His Amazing Friends. New Disney Jr show not the 80s cartoon with a similar title and ties to X-Men. Just sayin…

If Dana was approached by Marvel to do crossover between that and P&HU I’d buy it.:-D. You could even form a new debate on what’s better.

Having spider powers and costume or a Unicorn as a friend. But I think Marigold will already have the answer. Spidercorn!!!!

I never knew I needed to see what unicorn metamorphosis looked like. Well, I’m satisfied.

You can’t add to perfection.

That would be Pegasus Phoebe !

Now we know, the horn is for getting out of the cocoon.

We know that Marigold knows levitation spells. Apparently, she wants to fly rather than merely levitate.

When I first saw today’s cartoon and hadn’t started to read it, I thought that the Chrysalis was a wasp’s nest. Marigold should be thankful that it didn’t make her waspish.

The Pegasus thing, If Marigold or a Pegasus had a horn as she flew, why would she need it, there is not that much traffic in the air, except maybe drones!

There’s only one thing more beautiful than a unicorn: two unicorns!

alicorn perhaps? or maybe like that one spell that allowed one to briefly have wings made of dew and fairy sparkles (or something like that).

Wings? I’m pretty sure Marigold mentioned she doesn’t like or trust pegasuses (pegasi?) for some reason. So much for that Saint Seiya crossover.

A cocoonicorn?

I agree. Go for those wings the next time you pupate. That would really be cool…….

It’s sad to see that Marigold has such low self-esteem that she believes she can be improved upon.

Thank God Marigold landed on her neck; she could have damaged her horn… necks aren’t important, right?

I noticed that her mane is a bit longer. Must be a new way of drawing Marigold.

Lots of people enter pupil phase in late August.

i have some pet fairies that just went into cacoon (on about this day… hmmm). one of them tosses and turns. its kind of fun to look at them every day.
