The series is an anthropomorphic fantasy tale that follows the struggles of a small group of mice against an evil tyrant king.
The young mouse, Karic, has been visited by the gods of the realm and could possibly be the return of the great Kuhl-En who originally established the Templar order and brought peace to the land.
Each arc in the series is a stepping stone to Karic's growth as the main hero of the story and the challenges he faces along the way.
The final arc, Legend, has Karic caught between two warring factions, each wanting him for their own purpose and willing to kill him if he chooses the opposing side.
The series is being collected into trade paperback: Writer Bryan J. L. Glass won the Harvey Award in 2009 for Best New Talent for his work on Mice Templar,[2] Mice Templar won the Harvey Award in 2010 for Best Graphic Album of Previously Published Work[2]
