Mice Templar: The Prophecy by Glass & Oeming

Mice Templar: The Prophecy by Glass & Oeming

I don't know what it is with mice and medieval settings. Mouse Guard is amazing, now Mice Templar, I really don't know. But if Gromovar says this is worth reading, he's probably on to something. And it is (worth reading.) I think it does a better job at avoiding the main flaw of Mouse Guard which is that the main characters are virtually indistinguishable from each other graphically. This is the story of Karic, a young cowardly mouse who acts heroically when rats attack his village and has a vision. He's taken under the wing of Pilot, who says he's one of the Templars of old. A lot of setting history and mystic hintings in this first volume, but really good pacing, graphically interesting, I'll certainly read the rest.
