If they do it'll be a first; so far as I'm aware, no characters that have appeared first in books or comics have made their way into the animated series except for the Pillars of Old Equestria. In their case, I'd have to imagine that they were designed for the show and then the show writers got together with the comics team to set up Legends of Magic. I asked Jim Miller about the idea on Twitter a while back, and he said it's possible for a comic character to be in the show-but only if Hasbro wants it to happen.
