One Perfect Moment: Squirrel Girl

[angelophile]

It doesn't really get any more perfect than her origin story, does it? You know the one. For the Doom fans out there, it was undoubtedly a Doombot, right?

Taken from 1992's Marvel Super-Heroes #8, by Steve Ditko and Will Murray and proving that the 90s weren't all bad.

I just realized something. I am currently following two webcomics that feature anthropomorphic squirrel-girls as characters, I've seen references to more of the same in several others that I've glanced over, there are squirrel characters that feature prominently in several devoted fanbases - and then there's this.
You know who the true masters of the internet are? SQUIRRELS.

What webcomics would those be if you don't mind my asking?

One of them is probably El Goonish Shive.

I'm not sure on the other. But EGS is a good bet.

Thanks.

'Sequential Art' and 'El Goonish Shive'. Both good strips.

[salad_barbarian]

Thank you.

[psychopathicus_rex]

Yer welcome.

[mercia]

Ah, of course I should have thought of Sequential Art. Duh.

[psychopathicus_rex]

Indeed. That one doesn't just have ONE squirrel-girl, it has FOUR (or maybe five - I forget. Several, anyway).
