Re-read Mouse Guard

So I finally got my Mouse Guard HC. The first one I ordered arrived damaged and had to be called in as such.

I'm reading it this morning while laying in bed next to my sick wife (She's got the flu) and I get to a panel when the Gaurd Mice arrive in Barkstone.
There is a little mouse who appears to be a glassblower and is wearing a little skull like pendant that is very similar to the avatar morna-san used originally. morna-san, is that a little cameo of you in mouse form?

Very cool if it is.

Ya that's me! and Gary is the glassblowing mouse in the next panel! In the previous panel and on the back cover is a sign referencing the name of our (ex) business Starfish Glassworks. We were in nerd heaven! What an honour eh? Love that David.

The issue is stuffed with camoes - mostly David's friends and family but Han solo and Luke are in there. In fact on that same glassblowing page (which I'm the proud owner of) his mom appears and his wife. You met Jeremy Bastian at dinner with us - that's him carving on the next page - the mouse with the bull ring piercing. Three other Hellboarders are also in there. and lots more.

Definetly cool, morna-san;

And a nice gesture of David Petersen, although I can't see any facial likeliness...
