It was pretty good but I had a hard time with the changes in character POV.

I love the girl power in this graphic novel but it seemed like your everyday comic without a lot of depth. Cute though.

super cute and I really liked how this comic starts with the most mundane of teen rites: the college visit. And Kamala really has a nice section where she worries that she doesn't know what to do in college when she's a superhero - you can't really major in that. Good to have Quake and Miss America show up too. (Although someone should have rethought that cover - Captain Marvel and Ghost Spider do not appear at all.)

I wanted to like this - but I was very frustrated by Squirrel Girl being drawn so slender throughout the book (with the exception of the cover) when its been established that she doesn’t look like that. I like SG for many reasons - but especially because she can be strong and powerful without having every little muscle defined and visible. I don’t understand why that changed. (I mean I do know why it happened (fatphobia, subconscious or not) - but I’m mad it didn’t get edited or fixed).

Light-hearted fun. A bit ridiculous and definitely cheesy at times but still enjoyable.

Arthurian legend! Unbeatable Squirrel Girl making silly puns! A river spirit made of rubbish! What's not to like? A cute adventure with a group of Marvel's younger supers.
