The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, volume 4: I Kissed a Squirrel and I Liked It


29775585

Today's post is on The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, volume 4: I Kissed a Squirrel and I Liked It by Ryan North (Writer), Erica Henderson (Artist), Jacob Chabot (Artist), Rico Renzi (Artist). It is 120 pages long and is published by Marvel Comics. The cover has Squirrel Girl with some of the villains her fights in this volume behind her. The intended reader is someone who has read the first three volumes, likes squirrels, and fun plots. There is no foul language, no sex, and mild violence in this volume. There Be Spoilers Ahead.

From the back of the book- The hero who refuses to be beat celebrates 11 consecutive issues without a new #1! And she's letting you seize the chance to be the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl in a choose-your-own path encounter with Swarm, buzzkill made of bees! Then, Doreen takes charge of her life -her love life, that is - and starts dating. But just who will kiss a Squirrel and like it? Surely not...Mole Man?! When the subterranean super villain falls deep in love, he's willing to hold the world hostage to get Doreen's attention. Can she save everything without becoming Mrs. Mole Man? But enough with the hearts and the flowers and the kissing, you read this book for computer science and super heroics (not necessarily in that order). You'll get both - and more - in a showdown with Count Nefaria!

Review- Lots happens in this volume and it is great. The first part is a choose your own Squirrel Girl action adventure as narrated by Galactus. So it was a fun and funny way to tell a smaller story within the Squirrel Girl cannon. Then the next story starts with Doreen's crush is dating someone else so she decides that she needs to get out and meet someone herself. And the list of losers she meets is truly epic and in the end she just going home to watch movies with Nancy. But the arc is so funny and the villain is Mole Man who believes that she perfect in everyway expect for the way that she will not date him. So since this is Squirrel Girl everything is dialed up to eleven. I love this series so much!

I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I borrowed this comic book from my local library.
