I got this for Emma for Christmas, and it was excellent value for money because she enjoyed it and now I did too. Perhaps I'll get her the same thing for her birthday. 
 If you only read one comic book in 2016, make it The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl. It's funny, with plenty of references to (and appearances by) other Marvel comic characters. I laughed out loud several times in the hour or so it took me to read. My understanding is that lots of other comics are dark and gritty and very much take themselves seriously; this is not one of those (not that there's anything wrong with those). 
 I like Squirrel Girl, and her sidekick squirrel Tippy-Toe. She's smart and funny, and seems like a good role model for younger (and older (grandma, I'm talking to you)) readers. I like that her character isn't sexualized like all other female comic superheroes are. Still, I found her pretty attractive - maybe it's the huge shapely tail. I guess I have just sexualized her? My apologies.
