10 Things You Need To Know About Squirrel Girl

Arriving hot on the heels of the announcement that Marvel are working on a new TV series based around the Runaways comics, a new report is stating that the New Warriors are coming to the small screen – and the star of the show will be fan-favourite hero Squirrel Girl.

Since defeating Doom in her debut, it’s become a running joke that Squirrel Girl can defeat characters far more formidable than herself – ranging from fellow heroes to the most fearsome foes in the cosmos.

Sometimes, we get to see Squirrel Girl take on these giants. For instance, New Avengers Vol.2 #15 detailed how she defeated Wolverine in hand-to-hand no-claws combat. In Cable and Deadpool #30, she attacks Deadpool and beats him to a pulp (though, to be fair, she did have the element of surprise). She also stopped Galactus from eating Earth – albeit by befriending him and convincing him not to.

More often than not, though, Squirrel Girl’s conquests happen off screen. For instance, we’ve heard that she has bested the likes of Baron Mordo, Ego the Living Planet and, most impressively, Thanos the Mad Titan.
