Overview

New series, New Avenger With her unique combination of wit, empathy and squirrel powers, computer science student Doreen Green - aka the unbeatable Squirrel Girl - is all that stands between the Earth and total destruction. Well, Doreen plus her friends Tippy-Toe (a squirrel) and Nancy (a regular human with no powers). So, mainly Squirrel Girl. Then what hope does the Earth have if she gets hurled back in time to the 1960s and erased from history? At least Nancy will never forget her friend, but what invincible armored Avenger can she call on to help, through the magic of social media? Decades apart, can they avert doom, or will everything go wrong forever? Howard the Duck hopes not...he has an appointment for a crossover

  • The Squirel-ing

    Laura K. - 1 year 11 months ago

    This comic series is a wildly hilarious take on a second-tier character who definitely deserves her own comic, her own personal Avengers, and definitely her own Iron Man suit. Her catchphrase is she's here to 'Kick butts and eat nuts' and you want to be along with her and her sidekick, Tippytoes, for the ride. Watch in amazement as she blends in as a totally normal college student (who just happens to have a tail) and takes on various villains at the same time. This series has the best use of footnotes ever! Not to mention super awesome amazing Deadpool villain cards with helpful information to know and love. Also, if you love it, HERE'S MORE! Try Volume Two, Squirrel You Know Its True, and check out her new issue number one in a shop near you! But you don't have to take my word for it!

  • Best. Superhero. Ever.

    Laura F. - 3 years 11 months ago

    Q: What has superheroes, hard science, real feminism *and* talking squirrels? A: The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl! I'm not sure who loves Squirrel Girl more: me or my five-year-old. Why? Ryan North's plots are exciting, funny and intelligent. Erica Henderson's drawings are engaging and portrays our hero in realistic human proportions. Squirrel Girl can, and does, beat the bad guys through punches and fighting, but she prefers to use science and/or friendship. In no other comic does the hero win by using Galileo's Square-Cube Principal (and explain how Pym Particles and Gamma Rays circumvent it). In no other comic book does a fight end with phrases like "mutually acceptable compromise" or "while I don't agree with you, I respect your lived experience". Wherever she goes, Squirrel Girl makes more friends than enemies, and carries her determined optimism into every situation, no matter how dire. And that, in the end, is why she is, and always will be, Unbeatable.

  • Quirky

    Nikki L. - 4 years 1 month ago

    I loved this graphic novel. I laughed a ton. The characters are interesting and the plot is fun. Squirrel Girl/Doreen is starting college and just finding who she is as a super hero. We get to see if she can manage both. Doreen is so funny and quick witted, your going to love it!
