I love this book. It's been consistently fun, silly, and good from issue one. This volume is a bit different, as North tries out a slightly longer story than he's used before. The end result is a multi-part time travel story guest starring Doctor Doom. There is nothing that isn't fun about this. The last two issues in the book are a Howard the Duck crossover, which I ended up enjoying far more than I had thought I would. The two books melded really nicely. I'm not sure if it was enough to make m...
As if Doreen Green would ever let something as silly as the end of the Marvel Universe stop her from coming back stronger than ever after Secret Wars. Collecting the first six issues of her second ongoing series, as well as the crossover issue with Howard The Duck, this is another superb collection of hilarious comics that remind us that not everything has to be serious to be enjoyable. This is the first time writer Ryan North has tried a longer-form story, with the most being a two-parter in a
I am consistently disapointed with The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl graphic novels. I feel like they have so much potential, but the execution is just poor. This volume was so confusing with all the time travel and alternate timelines. I just wanted nothing more than for it to be over. However, with that said, it still took me like 5 days to read this because I could only manage about an issue at a time before I got frustrated and would have to just walk away from it. I think the best part about thi...
This was intensely fun. Now I need to go back and read all the rest of Squirrel Girl!
Admission time. This is really really really lite fair, ya'll. Cute. Optimistic. Lite. It may not be anything anywhere near serious work, but it lifts my heart a bit and during these days, that's a GOOD thing.It's almost as if it's all fluff and nonsense.Oh, wait, that's why I'm reading it! :)How outrageous is it to have this plucky girl defeat Doctor Doom... TWICE? Hmmm. Pretty outrageous. But at least she gets all her info from the special deck of Villian Cards written by Deadpool, so, you kno...
This volume was awesome! Time travel! Crossed timelines! Doctor Doom! Howard the Duck! A kitty cyborg that can say things like "Purr purr, please keep petting!"I really loved the adventure and real suspense in this volume. Solid plotting and even funnier than usual. I was smiling the whole time. 5 stars.
3.5I actually started reading this one last year after I read the first two, got halfway through it and had to take it back to the library #suck But I'm always here for Doreen and Nancy (I want Nancy for my roommate k she's awesome) also Tippy and Mew. And Squirrel Girl's continuous Tweeting at Tony Stark bc she's hilarious.The Howard the Duck crossover lost me.
Squirrel Girl has to be one of the most flat-out fun books on the market right now. It's joyous and playful and just makes me grin every time I read it. Yes, it gets silly and doesn't take itself seriously. I don't think either Ryan North or Erica Henderson are even capable of doing Grim and Gritty (though they’d definitely do an amazing parody of G&G, and now I want to read their version of The Dark Squirrel Returns …) SG is absolutely committed to helping criminals see the error of their ways....
SG, SG, how I love thee. Funny, feminist, unashamedly weird and extremely clever, this is a comic that a whole family can be fans of together. 8+ (but maybe 6+, really? It's pretty universal)*Please note: this review is meant as a recommendation only. Please do not use it in any marketing material, online or in print, without asking permission from me first. Thank you!*
Well, I started reading this in the hopes of going through the volumes and finally reading the War of the Realms tie ins and hey, maybe I’d like the stories that aren’t tied in too. But..... no, this is either for a younger audience or it’s just not good. Boring and tedious and try-hard for funny shit and funny slangs and whatnot which are not funny at all.I won’t be continuing simply because Main character is annoying as hell and the rest of the characters are boring and uninteresting.

The happiest thing I read is this series.
This third collection, beginning the volume 2 run, is just as good as the first two, if not better. There's crazy robots, time travel, and a cross-over with Howard The Duck. You can't go wrong!
Oh my, I love comics full of heroism and friendship and saving people and non-escalation and saving pets and saving the world. And computer science.
Now that is time travel done right!
This book does my head in.It's kind of growing on me... but it's still pretty much equal parts cute and nerve endings on a cheese grater annoying!Nuts to it.
Another fun volume! The footnotes did start to get distracting so I need to read through first and then read the footnotes. I found that if I tried to read the footnotes as I went along, I would lose my momentum. Other than that, it was such a fun romp! I love Doreen and Nancy and I want to read more!
I have never, ever loved a comic with the kind of helpless adoration I feel for The Unbeatable Squirrel. So funny! So smart! So awesome! And so kind! In a word: UNBEATABLE. :)I dragged out my reading of this volume as long as possible...but now I have to admit it: I'm really done. It's over. No more until the next volume. Wahhhh!There wasn't a single issue in this volume that didn't make me laugh out loud multiple times, and I always, always felt better after reading it. I love Squirrel Girl SO
In theory I like Squirrel Girl. She's cute, spunky, unbeatable, etc..The reality? I just don't think I'll ever be a huge fan of this title. I felt like maybe I was starting to really like this volume till I started hitting the halfway mark, and then something inside me snapped. One minute it seemed all quirky and fun, and the next it was just too much!Too much mind-numbing dialogue crammed everywhere. EVERYWHERE! Like, there is literally no where else to put any more words, because all of the bl...
Reading this instead of the news was 100% the right decision, as it was extremely funny and generally adorable. Doreen Green AKA Squirrel Girl deals with robots, Doctor Doom, time travel, and Howard the Duck with charm and panache. She has a squirrel for a sidekick, an awesome flatmate, and a set of cards listing supervillains that Deadpool apparently gave her. Even better, each page has meta commentary at the bottom, including the following: 'That guy's The Punisher! Like all men who take thems...
What I adore most about Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (other than Doreen and her unrelenting cheer and her vaguely one-sided friendship with Tony Stark) is her roomie, Nancy.But Mary, Mary, my love.MARY AND NANCY TOGETHER.Be still my heart. The supporting characters for this series are so excellent. The writer clearly has just a ton of fun mixing the absurdity of classic comic shenanigans with modern humor and sensibilities.
