Greetings True Believers!

Go SG!

I love how she has single-handedly taken down almost every major MU villain off-panel and it's canon.

Riase your hand if you would buy an Avengers series with her on the roster. *raises hand*

[auggie18]

I would buy that.

If Marvel and DC team up again, there must be a Squirrel Girl/Miss Martian mini.

[blackruzsa]

She wouldn't be on the roster. It would be too awesome.
Her power mixed with the Avengers would cause the universe to implode.

[cf105]

I'd love to but couldn't there would be no dramatic tension with her on the roster. Oh, Galactus dropped by for Lunch Squirrel Girl go turn him into a scratching post. It would be funny as heck but would get boring after 3 storylines.

[skalja]

No, no. See ... while all the Avengers are fighting some massive world-ending threat on panel, she's saving the universe single-handedly. But we never see it.

[hyperactivator]

Me too!

[shadowpsykie]

during of the Avenger team building thing (you know the blocked out, sileoutte adds) wasnt squirrel girl on one of the teams?

[stig]

I want a "Weird Avengers". Squirrel Girl and Ghost Rider and FrankenCastle as the big three equivalent, with, I don't know, Kid Omega. The Chicken-Cow. Stabbity Jones. Living Monolith. Death's Head I. Shuma Gorath (possessing someone).

I just don't think kooky weirdness is celebrated in Marvel enough. Mostly it's just run-of-the-mill generic weirdness.

I would be more than willing to script this.

[stig]

Maybe resurrect Iron Man's living armour just for the fun of it. Bring Hobgoblin out of retirement too, except now he's an amnesiac.

The ideas just keep coming.

[his-spiffyness.livejournal.com]

And I'd be more than willing to draw this!

Dude, talk to me off list, I'm serious.

[nervousystem.livejournal.com]

Or better yet, a "Joke Avengers." It would be a hilarious comic and Squirrel Girl could be in the bathroom or on a phone call until the end of the story.

Then she comes in and *BETWEEN-PANELS-VICTORY*

[psychopathicus_rex]

But... all of those guys are villains (well, except for Frank and Ghost Rider, and I don't know who 'Kid Omega' is). Wouldn't weird HEROES make more sense? Like, say, N'kantu the Living Mummy, the Shade, 'a Guy named Joe', D-Man, Werewolf by Night and the Blazing Skull. Oh, and throw Blonde Phantom into the mix, too, because she's awesome. THAT would be a team.

[rordulum]

I love how Doctor Doom is scared of her. And how that makes fanboys cry.

And Squirrel Girl on an Avengers team really would be overkill. Come to think of it, why did no one think to draft her in to take down Sentry? Silly Marvel superheroes.

[falseaesop]

She was busy keeping Ego the Living Planet from knocking Earth out of orbit, duh.

[colonel_green]

In all seriousness, that wouldn't work. She's a joke character; put her on the Avengers and you would pretty much wreck the mood (or else, you'd have to play her realistically).

[okkult3000]

Realism? From the House of It's-Magic-We-Don't-Have-To-Explain-It?

[colonel_green]

I mean, write her to her actual power levels (ie, pretty much harmless).

[okkult3000]

That's not what her official stats say.

[darkblade]

Those are the stats that give Molly Hayes a strength of 4 and Frank Castle a (pre-FrankenCastle) strength of 6.

[ulf_boehnke]

Sorry, but that would be a one-shot full of panels of defeated Avengers villains.

[silverzeo]

Okay, some sick her Mephisto or better yet, Joe, and then we can have things REALLY back to the way they were.

[shadowpsykie]

oooh i would totally buy that!

[blackruzsa]

I used to wonder why her intelligence scale was a full seven in the rankings. Now I know ;)

[his-spiffyness.livejournal.com]

Notice the WKRP flag on the mic?

I guess nobody told them there really is one in Cincinnati now...

[perletwo]

Well, embed didn't work there. :(

[his-spiffyness.livejournal.com]

I knew about the show, in fact that's exactly why WKRP TV took those call letters a year or so ago.

[leorising]

"Nut-less." I saw what he did there. ;D

[sir_mikael]

Omg your icon, haha.

[jaybee3]

And you know what Disney know owns Squirrel Girl (along with the rest of Marvel). Just sayin'. Selena Gomez call your agent!

Squirrel Girl is my favorite Marvel character bar none. She's just always fun to read and she's insanely powerful (somehow) to boot. The real question is how come Steve Rogers didn't recruit her for any of his Avengers teams?

[mullon]

No! If she leaves she's no longer safe.

[sir_mikael]

Doesn't Fing Fang Foom look kinda... dead there?

[his-spiffyness.livejournal.com]

And Nextwave killed him a while ago, he's worse than Jean Grey about not staying dead.

[sir_mikael]

Well *shrug* alien dragons with pants issues. What are you gonna do about them?

It does seem a bit harsh for Squirrel Girl to have killed him though.
She doesn't seem the kind to do that.

[his-spiffyness.livejournal.com]

It probably wasn't SG's fault really. She probably called all the Squirrels of Milwaukee to assist her as usual, and they are mean and bloodthirsty bunch...

[teamrodent]

And let's not even talk about the ones in Green Bay ...

[proteus_lives]

You mess you SG, you take your fucking chances.

[pyrotwilight]

It's funny until you realize the GLA will probably be killed right after by an enemy that Squirrel Girl could've beaten. Well, except for Mr. Immortal, who will be killed multiple times but still be ok.

[halloweenjack]

I was all set to buy this book purely because Doreen was on the cover, until I read this page and found out that she was only in one page, and that just to quit the GLA.

You know what I'd like to see? SG take on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and not the lame dudes from the X-Men Apocalypse, I mean the very problems themselves--War, Famine, Plague and Death. Because once you've thumb-wrestled Galactus to a draw, what's left?

[psychopathicus_rex]

It strikes me that this is the very definition of an Informed Attribute, taken to the max. I mean, it WORKS, because Squirrel Girl is a fun character, but her only real tactic is to skip from the 'GASP -a villain!' stage to the 'BEATEN, b'gum' phase without bothering about the bit in between.
