Squirrels are my all time favorite animal. People buy squirrel presents for me and text me pictures of squirrels they see and send me baby squirrel videos. I just really enjoy squirrels. So a lot of people were asking me what I thought of the Squirrel Girl series, assuming that I of course was on top of my squirrel pop culture. And somehow, I took way too long to actually read this and kind of kept putting it off, thinking "It looks kind of lame...I don't want to dislike it..." 
 I was the lame one for putting this off for so long. This is a delightful series that is mostly just lighthearted fun and girl power and cute squirrels. I really like how it never takes itself too seriously (I mean, her power is that she has the same strength/skills of a squirrel, just as a human...it's silly, really) and knows how weird it seems. But Squirrel Girl is an actual hero and kicks some major butt. And she does it with a super chipper attitude and mob of squirrels. It's awesome. This would be perfect for any young gal (or guy) looking to get into comics because it feels very irreverent and positive. Her first fight is won by talking it out with the bad guy and using logic to show how silly the fight would be. I mean. Come on. How positive. I really enjoy this and my love of squirrels can now continue in comic book form.
