Mouse Guard: Legends of the Guard

David Petersen, the creator of the beloved Mouse Guard world, curates this anthology series from Boom! Studios, which began in 2015. Set in the same medieval mouse civilization, each issue collects short tales told by the mice of a tavern, with Petersen writing and drawing the framing sequences while guest creators contribute the legends. This series matters because it expands the Mouse Guard mythos through a collaborative, storybook-style format, allowing other artists to play in Petersen’s richly detailed universe.
