The ones who missed out at my panel at Ponycon 2015.

The ideas for the "Sea Beach Line Incident" was develop way back during my high school times, somewhere around 11th grade or so. Originally, the story and the subway line I was chosen wasn't the N train. It was the 7 train, the Flushing Line. I was going to feature the famous Redbirds on the line, but however I dropped the idea because I didn't have much characters and story development for it. I didn't like to create more characters because it took too much time, also I don't have a character who would be the hero for the story at chasing scene and I don't like making up one. I never drew the cover nor a page of it. However, I never forgotten this idea and I still coming up the better ways to make it. Not until I got into this fandom....

I have to give it a big thanks for my NYC Bronies Group. When the time my friend from tumblr introduce me to this group, I've got to meet new people and made new friends. When the time I was working on "Twilight Sparkle and the Big City" only 8 pages in, that's the time where I get to know Karen, she's the Co-organizer of NYC Bronies Group and Ponycon. Not for long she knows that I'm a train buff, she told me; "My husband drives the subway!" I was like; "Really?! Which line he drives on?" "He drives the N train." She replied. For a week or two had gone past, the ideas for the comic started to come back to me. All of the sudden, BOOM! The "Sea Beach Line Incident" was created! I even have a hero for the story! A great big thanks to Karen and Mikey, if it wasn't for them, this comic wouldn't have been made! Mikey will be the hero for this story!

Side Note:
I know the N train every well in Brooklyn while I was growing up as a kid, me and my grandfather used to traveled a lot to 8th Ave and Bay Parkway to buy groceries and dining in restaurants. As I got older, I started to know the line better. Plus, I've got a great scene for the comic for a train chase. It'll be awesome!
