The rules are simple:

- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

This comic is probably based on the movie which changed it so that he was adopted and an actual mouse. It somehow makes even less sense than the original story.
I dunno, I'm not sure a boy who looks exactly like a mouse and matures twice as fast as other humans really makes a great deal more sense than a talking mouse.
A boy who looks like a mouse is magical realism, you can assume the setting is like the real world except for this one-off magical event. A talking mouse is fantasy because now you're in a setting where all mice can talk if you teach them how which creates a bunch of plot holes including the comic is poking fun at.
