The comics' canonicity is a subject of some debate-some ignore them entirely, others try to reconcile every last detail between them and the shows, and others are somewhere in the middle. I typically look at individual comic stories as "canon until proven otherwise" meaning that until the show says something that clearly contradicts the comic it's considered part of the canon. There's a whole council of Griffon Lords, and it's indicated that most of them are just as self-centered and greedy as any regular griffon. Of course, the comic also seemed to indicate that the Griffons' territory is much larger than just Griffonstone-the arc that introduced the Griffon Lords also indicated that Canterlot and a sizeable area of land around it used to belong to the Griffons, and that they still seem to have territory bordering Equestria.
