Golden Age Version
The original Three Mouseketeers were published in DC's humor series Funny Stuff, first appearing in Funny Stuff #1 (Summer 1944).
The series was a loose parody of the classic Alexander Dumas novel The Three Musketeers. In this case, the lead swordsmice were named Aramouse, Amouse, and Porterhouse (with young accomplise D'Artagmouse), and had various adventures while serving King Looey XIV.
The series ran in Funny Stuff until approximately 1948, after which the characters remained unseen for years. The Mouseketeers were revisited in a 1982 Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew time-travel storyline in which it's revealed the Mouseketeers are historical figures in Earth-C's version of France during the 17th century.

Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.”
