Mouse Guard is an Eisner Award-winning bi-monthly comic book series published by Archaia Studios Press. The comic stands out on shelves due to its distinctive form factor -– a square (8" × 8") as opposed to the standard comic size (6½" × 10"). Mouse Guard is written and illustrated by David Petersen.
Series one is collected in a single volume titled Mouse Guard: Fall 1152 (ISBN 1-932386-57-2). A Mouse Guard Series two started in July 2007 and is entitled Winter 1152. David Petersen has also stated plans for further Mouse Guard stories. One will deal with Celanawe's back-story while another will deal with the winter war of 1149. In a recent interview Petersen said he was planning a story about Kenzie and Saxon's early guard days.

Famous quotes containing the words mouse and/or guard:
“Why do precisely these objects which we behold make a world? Why has man just these species of animals for his neighbors; as if nothing but a mouse could have filled this crevice?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Irony, forsooth! Guard yourself, Engineer, from the sort of irony that thrives up here; guard yourself altogether from taking on their mental attitude! Where irony is not a direct and classic device of oratory, not for a moment equivocal to a healthy mind, it makes for depravity, it becomes a drawback to civilization, an unclean traffic with the forces of reaction, vice and materialism.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
