It wasn’t the footage of the “sizzle reel” or the impressive set models. Last night, you wowed me again in your AMA on Twitch. I remember him listening intently to your words. Your story of how you brought drawings of mice to a convention, and listened to the calling to turn them into something more, creating the Black Axe… all of it. Your panel on self-publishing that day again inspired my partner. This time our eyes lit up, as we all joked about raising the next generation “correctly.” You mentioned how awesome we were for bringing him. When our little family met you at Boston Comic Con, B was six months old, sleeping, all wrapped up on my torso.
Mouse Guard was something we could appreciate together. Gaming was more my style, and I never got into the superhero comics. He taught me to appreciate comic art and all the work and dedication that goes into a finished product. My partner always commented on your killer line art skills as an inspiration of his, and how he would study your panels.
I never cared for the superhero universes too much, and Mouse Guard was such an amazing story, with such attention to detail in the illustrations. We were a young nerdy couple, playing MMOs and reading comics together. Your eyes seemed to light up as we gushed about our love for your creation, like a mom being told her kids are super amazing and kind. Just a small little moment in time, as all our encounters have been.Īfter what seemed a long line of people asking you to sign TMNT covers, we finally got to meet the creator of Mouse Guard. Wes Ball was originally slated to helm a Mouse Guard film before the project was canceled.The first time we met was at Free Comic Book Day a few years ago, up in a little NH city. Mouse Guard follows a group of warrior mice in a medieval setting, who have sworn to defend their brethren at all costs. "David has an incredible talent for writing and illustrating stories that bring the reader into the richly detailed world drawn from his imagination and it’s simply a joy to spend time in this world and allow David to guide the journey." "It’s very exciting to return to the world of MOUSE GUARD and engage with the characters and stories that David has beautifully created and continues to expand upon," added BOOM! Studios editor Bryce Carlson.
"The common themes in these stories are ones of hope and of compassion, of service and the wellbeing of others. Despite their size, they are exactly the right shape to hold large messages of morality and virtue," said Petersen. "I'm so pleased that readers get to walk back into the Mouse Territories, be accompanied by familiar Guardmice, and encounter snakes, owls, wolves, rams, otters, toads, and foxes again.
