Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Inside the June Alley Inn, located in the western mouse city of Barkstone, mice gather to tell tales, each trying to outdo the other. A competition, of sorts, begins. The rules: Every story must contain one truth, one lie and have never been told in that tavern before. With the winner getting his bar tab cleared, fantastic stories are spun throughout the evening. Legends of the Guard is a new Mouse Guard anthology series featuring the work of artists and storytellers handpicked by series creator David Petersen, including Jeremy Bastian (Cursed Pirate Girl), Alex Sheikman (Robotika), Ted Naifeh (Courtney Crumrin and the Night Things), Gene Ha (Top 10), Sean Rubin (Redwall), Guy Davis (B.P.R.D.), Katie Cook (Fraggle Rock), Karl Kerschl (Teen Titans: Year One), Craig Rousseau (Impulse), and Mark Smylie (Artesia).

Inside the June Alley Inn, located in the western mouse city of Barkstone, mice gather to enjoy the renowned hospitality of June herself. On one particular evening, the subject of unpaid drink tabs leads to a contest. Whichever patron can weave the best tale for June's ears will have their past tab cleared entirely. With such an alluring prize up for grabs, the eager patrons begin telling fantastic stories, spinning their yarns throughout the evening contest.
