Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Squirrel Girl vs. someone who can talk to animals; also, Brain Drain learns about friendship. 3.5/4 (Very good) I'm still having fun, but this book is carried entirely by comic relief and good art. The story is rough, uninteresting, and full of holes. On the other hand, The Adventures of Chef Bear and Alfredo the Chicken make for a pretty amazing (4-page) diversion.

It's a normal, quiet day at Empire State University, filled with lots of lectures and higher education and students learning quietly. But don't turn away, there's also going to be a fist fight! A big one! And Doreen Green will also get a new Flying Squirrel suit from a mystery benefactor that would render her even more unbeatable, if such a thing were scientifically possible! That pretty much means crime is over forever. There definitely can't be a new super villain in town conspiring to mold Squirrel Girl into the perfect minion...or is there?! Gasp at a secret invasion of character motivations! Thrill at a civil war of emotions! Boggle as monsters truly get unleashed and Doreen's fate hangs in the balance! Also, machine-gun-wielding bears! It's squirrels and girls and punching, oh my! No library descriptions found. |

There's also one standalone story in which Doreen and her roommate Nancy take off on vacation, leaving their friends Koi Boy, Chipmunk Hunk, and Brain Drain to defend the city. It was nice to see these characters getting to do some stuff on their own, and the plot was cute, plus I can never, ever, ever get enough of Brain Drain, the nihilistic villain-turned-somewhat-confused-hero brain-in-a-jar-on-a-robot-body, so I found this one rather delightful.
Also, a few issues in, there was a request in the letters column from someone pointing out that the little "secret" notes and amusing commentary at the bottom of most of the pages are very, very hard to read for those of us with aging, bifocal-clad eyes, and come the next issue they actually fixed this. It's a very small change, but OMG, it's now a million times easier to read. No more horrible eyestrain! Much as I love Squirrel Girl, it's the writer of that letter who is the real hero here. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Kristin Boldon of Minneapolis, MN. I will be grateful to you forever, or at least for as long as I keep reading these comics. ( )
