Ten things I have loved, and continue to love, about Squirrel Girl:1.) Body positivity2.) A relentless refusal to be anyone other than herself3.) She's got a silly, dad-joke type sense of humor4.) CAT THOR (and I don't even really like cats. At all.)5.) The shit she gives to Iron Man (and the way she interacts with the rest of the Marvel universe on the whole)6.) Those footnotes! 7.) The letter to the editors are always full of SO MUCH positivity8.) Diverse, inclusive, and no 'tokens' here!9.) D...
So much fun. I love Squirrel Girl, simply because she's never meant to be taken seriously and is still so endearingly earnest anyways. It's wonderfully silly, even while the events in the book are being taken seriously by the characters in the book. This is a book that I think my niece would really get a kick out of, and I can enjoy it, too, so win-win. Actually, I think that this would probably be a favorite comic of the Lumberjanes cast, which is a really wonderful thing. Squirrel Girl isn't q...
All right, I liked it, but it took me a while to get into it. I am not a big fan of the art, so didn't feel drawn in. It's the garish color scheme. Maybe that's a small thing. But it made me keep putting it down, picking it up. But to be fair: the energy and positive girl power spirit continues, which is all good, and I like the whole silly squirrel girl and sidekick-who-is-actually-a-squirrel thing, and all the readers who send pictures of themselves with squirrels, my fave one from a squirrel
OK, I think this book is starting to grow on me (like mould) as I actually quite enjoyed this second volume. Maybe I'm mellowing in my old age... or senility is kicking in.Charming, harmless, frothy fun... Nothing great but to keep saying mean things about it would feel too much like kicking a puppy.P.S. It's only with the introduction of Chipmunk Hunk and Koi Boi that I've realised that, in the US, 'Squirrel Girl' rhymes. Here in the UK, we pronounce the E in squirrel, making it a two syllable
Ratatoskr. Need I say more?What? The squirrel that runs up and down the World Tree? Shit-talking anyone into rage, the ultimate internet troll of the gods… without even having to use the internet?All I have to say to that is: it’s f***ing fitting to have him go up against Squirrel Girl.And you know the best way to combat internet trolls who no longer need the internet? Yep, you’ve got it. It’sAnd that’s IT!Out of all the Marvels, I’ve never seen anything quite THIS wholesome. No. Not even Spider...
Continuing Marvel's best and funniest meta-comic, this time with an epic to rival the Galactus/Planet of Nuts arc.Loki changing himself into [NO SPOILERS HERE] to annoy his brother is the highlight of highlights.
So fun! I can't wait to read more from this world.I loved the commentary on the bottom of each page. I also loved her group of friends! Such great variety and glad to see some fun characters who aren't all white dudes. I need more superheroes like this! Or I just need to keep reading Squirrel Girl. ^_^
okay so i had all these dumb new year's resolutions like 'exercise 30 minutes every day' and 'wash the dishes regularly' but you know what? i have seen the light. forget my whole list, my new new year's resolution is to be more like squirrel girlit encompasses everything one should strive for in life! as i accept the power of SQUIRREL into my life i will be blessed with the following:1) COMP SCI POWERS2) THE ABILITY TO SPEAK TO SQUIRRELS3) THE ABILITY TO USE ENVY TO ADDRESS FLAWS IN MY NATURE AN...
THIS COMIC IS FULL OF JOY
This apparently is not meant for my age.
Although not as cute as the first volume, it was super great to meet the rest of Doreen's superhero team and watch her get to beat up ******** and steal his ******* and have them not even ******! And then Nancy figured out the answer while hanging out with ****** and ****** on ******! TEAMWORK! \o/Probably what made this feel so weird is that some guest artists drew Doreen and I recoiled from the page because no. It made me want to KICK BUTTS. Can I just petition Marvel to only allow Erica Hende...
I HEART NANCY THE END
This book is funny as hell. I'm so happy to have a book that's actually funny, and to see a character who is confident without having to throw out lines about her confidence all the time or fight a bunch of straw men created to make a point about how she's good at this and that. She's doing what I want in comics, kicking ass and cracking wise. It's exactly what I love about Spider-Man. Okay, part of what I love. There isn't quite the emotional depth for me, or not yet at least, but this definite...
I WISH THERE WERE MORE STARS TO GIVE
Better than the first volume, but the best stories in the book are the three little reprint stories in the back. I hate the little footnotes that you can barely read because of the color and tiny font size. I also hate how the first page of each issue is just a made up twitter feed. It's a comic book. I want artwork on every page.
So goooooood. Cat Thor!
I'm seriously in love.And, like, I've never really considered cosplaying much (beyond, say, generic Hufflepuff student), but even though I don't have anywhere to actually cosplay, I was thinking about how I could pull off a halfway decent Squirrel Girl outfit. THIS IS HOW GREAT THIS BOOK IS.It's too bad Marvel on Comixology doesn't let you download your books; otherwise, I'd totally subscribe right this second.
*4.5 stars*OK, there's only one thing wrong with having read Volume 2 of The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl: I can't find any pre-order listings for Volume 3. When is Volume 3 coming out???? If any of you guys know, please tell me!The first issue in this volume felt a little scattered and unfocused, which is why this is a 4.5 star review instead of a 5 star review, but even in the first issue, there were bits I found really funny, and after that, I just kept on laughing out loud and loving it all the
This second volume did not disappoint. I'm only mad at myself for not picking up the series last year when people began raving about it. As usual, I'm late to the party. But better late than never, because it has quickly shot up my list of comic faves. If you like puns, friendships, squirrels, and hilarity (and why wouldn't you like any or all of those things?), I cannot recommend this enough.
More fast-paced fun in this volume! I loved meeting new superheroes Chipmunk Hunk and Koi Boy, and the first issue, where bystanders tell stories they've heard about Squirrel Girl, is hilarious. Love this series!
