MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1959. Stopped in 1962 after 12 issues.

The starring character was created as a funny animal parody of Superman, and the parallels are obvious. He wears the same type of costume and he has the same type of superpowers as his role model from the 'real' world.

The full title of the series is The Adventures of Mighty Mouse. A second run (1966-1967, 7 issues) was simply titled Mighty Mouse.
