Although the current torrent of comic book related movies are sitting atop of the box office and being a geek doesn't quite possess the stigma that it used to, I still get the occasional odd look when I start singing the praises of my favourite pulp heroes and villains. It’s also true to say that one last bastion of awkwardness remains for many of us. It is still, in some circles, considered to be a less than desirable trait by the mainstream as far as dating goes.

Squirrel Girl……. Just think about that name for a second. I bet you never thought a character with that name would: 1.) Be literally unbeatable, having beaten Thanos, MODOK and even Uatu (the Watcher) in the past without really breaking a sweat. 2.) Be a genuinely engaging heroine who has far more depth than most other ‘seriously’ written superheroes. And… 3.) Be the basis for one of the funniest and, arguably, cleverest comics Marvel would release in the last 20 years. |
