The Fraggle Rock comics are published in an eight-inch by eight-inch format, a size that Archaia has used for its Mouse Guard (David Petersen) series. In contrast to Roger Langridge's The Muppet Show comics, the series is an anthology of tales set in Fraggle Rock, combining long and short stories, rather than a major continuing arc. Each issue also featured activity pages created by Katie Cook - such as teaching how to draw the character, how to make radish stamps, or how to build Doozer structures.

I think the biggest change is that we’re telling these stories in the comic book medium rather than TV. We did make a conscious decision not to write the series as a sequel to the show. Those of you who know how the show ends know that setting these stories after the final episode would require either changing some key components of the series or else coming up with some contrived way of reversing what happened at the end of the show. We didn’t want to do that, so rather our stories are set within the period of the show. We’re also not worrying too much about continuity. We’re not ignoring it, but in the interest of making sure this book’s accessible to young readers who have never seen the show, we felt it best if we focus on telling self-contained stories that don’t depend on knowing particular episodes of the show. That said, there will definitely be things in the series for fans. We’re focusing on the “Fraggle Five,” but we’ll also be telling stories that focus on Doozers and Gorgs, as well as supporting characters like Convincing John, the World's Oldest Fraggle, Traveling Matt and Cotterpin Doozer. We’re also throwing in occasional references and Easter Eggs that fans will pick up on. We’re all old fans ourselves, so we definitely want to make sure we please our fellow fans. But we also want to help grow the property and bring new fans into the fold. I think the series succeeds on both fronts.”—Tim Beedle, managing editor
