DescriptionThis is the variant cover to issue 6 of the fourth Mice Templar volume: Legend.This one has a bit of story. It was published on Skottie¡¦s blog as one of his pinups/homage. Those get sold within seconds. It later popped on ebay for close to 150 or 200% of Skottie¡¦s orginal asking price. It got listed and relisted till I snatched it at a bit of a lower price than that. In the meantime, it had been used as the cover to the comic (see second and third pictures) resulting in me buying probably the cheapest Skottie Young cover ever (if you know his prices, you know what I¡¦m talking about). I really like Skottie¡¦s own interpretation of the Oeming/Santos serie here. He managed to make the mouse quite menacing which is not an easy feat. The rain and painted piece of wood (or rock) also add to the mood. And Lastly, this is a nice departure from all the super hero babies covers he¡¦s been doing for years now. I mean I like them but after 300, it gets a bit stale. This is part 10 of my 2015 b-day party on CAF ƒº Social/Sharing |

Love Skottie's work and so neat to see this go from a daily sketch to a published cover. Congrats and happy bday!

This is wicked cool; very likely one of my favorite pieces I've seen of his.
I've spent my morning going through your WONDERFUL gallery, and just want to say thanks so much for sharing all these pieces! What a treat to see them. Congratulations on a most impressive and wonderful collection. :)

Gritty Scottie! Very nice. The Mice Templar always looked so cool. I need to read it sometime.

Had to swing past and leave another comment on this beautiful piece! Love how it feels so much “like Skottie” and still reflective of Oeming and Mice Templar. A fantastic daily sketch that they were absolutely justified in making a cover (and you were double-brilliant to add to your collection)! :). Congrats again!
