The Mice Templar Volume II: Destiny #1

Two armored mice warriors face off atop a massive stone effigy, blades drawn, while an enormous serpent rears its coiling form against a stormy, bat-filled sky — it's a striking image that sets a grand, mythic tone for this second volume from writer Bryan J. L. Glass and cover artist Michael Avon Oeming. "Destiny" signals that the world of the Mice Templar is deepening, with colorist Veronica Gandini's moody palette of gold, grey, and shadow giving the scene real atmospheric weight. A 2009 Harvey Award nominee for Best New Talent, Best Continuing Series, and more, this opening issue of Destiny is a confident, beautifully crafted entry point into one of Image's most ambitious anthropomorphic fantasy epics.
