Mouse Guard Volume 1: Fall 1152

David Peterson (writer/artist), takes readers on a journey into the world of Mouse Guard. It is a place where mice struggle to live among harsh conditions and a horde of ferocious predators. To increase their chances of survival, the Mouse Guard was formed. The Mouse Guard acts as border patrol and guide to travelers as they transverse dangerous territories. With fearless dedication, Guardmice Saxon, Kenzie and Lieam are commanded to find a missing merchant mouse who did not arrive at his destination. Their search for the missing merchant reveals much more than they anticipated, as they discover there might be a traitor in their own ranks.

In 2008, Mouse Guard won two Eisner Awards. The Will Eisner Comic Industry Award,  often shortened to the Eisner Award,  is a prize awarded for creative achievement in American comic books.

Mouse Guard won in the following categories:

-Best Publication for Kids (Fall 1152)

-Best Graphic Album - Reprint (Fall 1152 Hardcover)

 

Mouse Guard appeals to readers of all ages. Fans of Brian Jacques, the Redwall series, and Watership Down by Richard Adams will be instantly drawn to this series. Comics are often seen as kids' stuff with no inherit value or lesson to be learned. Mouse Guard proves that comics can be entertaining while still providing a story told with character and morality.
