Mouse Guard - Extraordinary fantasy comic book series by David Petersen |
| This top-notch fantasy story, published
bi-monthly by Archaia Studios Press, is written by David Petersen and has
been met with high acclaim throughout the industry.
The setting: In the mid-12th century, the mice territories are at peace,
thanks to the defeat of an evil weasel overlord. The powerful force for
good, the Mouse Guard, has been retained, though small in size, to
continue to protect the other mice of the land from whatever dangers should
arise - predators of feline or other persuastions.
Join Saxon, Kenzie, Lieam, Sadie, and the rest when they discover that
the Mouse Guard is needed more than ever, to protect all good citizen mice
from fears external and internal.
Friendship, comeraderie, competition, corruption and betrayal are some themes that
run big with these little fellows in a tremendous story that has gripped
the imaginations of discriminating comic book readers of all ages.
This series has sold out time and again, but we now have numbers 1 through 5
in stock!

Sports Action Figures |

Muhammed Ali Talking Action Figure - 18-inches tall, this highly
detailed sports action figure depicts the boxing heavyweight champion of the
world on the night he first gained the title, as he appeared
against then-champ Sonny Liston in Miami Beach on February 25, 1964.
He floats like a butterfly! He stings like a bee! He actually speaks
these phrases:
- "I'm the greatest fighter that ever lived!"
- "I shook up the world! I shook up the world! I shook up the world!"
- "Who's the greatest? Who's the greatest?"
- "I must be the greatest, I told the world!"
- "I am the king of the world! I'm pretty!"
