This past weekend while picking up my free comics, I grabbed the Mouse Guard: Fall 1152 collection. This is a great fantasy comic series about elite mice who protect a tiny kingdom from threats both external (crabs, snakes, and other large creatures) and internal (traitorous officials.) I had owned several of the individual issues before […]
