And you can read all about it in that Entertainment Weekly article I just linked to! I’m super excited for this, and so stoked he was able to come on board. The issue - #26, out next month - is about Doreen making all her superpowered friends write comics for a zine she’s pulling together. And Jim Davis is making Galactus’s OWN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL COMICS come to life.
Here’s an excerpt from the article!
“When you look at the Silver Surfer, he’s 75 percent of the way there anyway with Jon, all we had to do is give him the big eyes. That was a natural. John kind of hangs around Garfield anyway, he’s the straight man to Garfield’s gags and has to get him food. He’s like Garfield’s herald. Galactus was tougher. We were throwing stuff back and forth, and the initial sketches just weren’t working for Galactus. I said okay, we gotta make him fat. The guy eats planets, for god’s sake! Once we do that, it’s a little less Galactus but certainly a lot more Garfield. It looked more natural. Obviously, Galactus has put on a few mega-tons for this strip.”
You can read the whole thing here, and included are some sneak peeks at but some of the GALACTUS COMICS we made, as well as unlettered Kraven art from Michael Cho, Spider-Man comics by @rahzzah, Tippy art by Rico Renzi (our colourist!), and Howard art by @zdarsky, whose story is written by @ericafailsatlife (our artist!)! It’s going to be a RIDICULOUSLY FUN ISSUE and I can’t wait for y’all to read it. Thank you Jim for being down for this and thank you all for supporting the book so much that we get to do crazy things like this!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
OK, this looks amazing.
Garfield creator Jim Davis drew a Galactus story for the Squirrel Girl ‘zine’.
is defenders book coming out and series coming out during same time, coincedent or was issues planned to be released around same time as series
this was my last page of new avengers from 2012. i have been planning this for a long time.
Marvel Question: Do you see Ms. Marvel, Spidey-Miles and Nova (Sam) taking care of Shogo (Jubilee's baby), Dani (Luke and Jessica's baby), William (Tigra's baby) and Gerry (Spider-Woman's baby) someday?
What, as babysitters? Yeah, probably.
Given the choice, I still feel like Squirrel Girl would be the greatest babysitter ever.
Here is Squirrel Girl “beating” Wolverine from
New Avengers #15
Just a few points.
1 - It’s practice
2 - He’s holding back and not using his claws or his superior physical abilities.
3 - He could have stabbed her in the spine several times.
4 - When he blocked that hit he could have taken her arm off with his claws.
5 - How is that in anyyyyy way a win for her?
6 - Squirrels on my avengers? It’s more likely than you think.
7 - You do know she’s a joke character right?
8 - see 7
9 - see 8
10 - Squirrel Girl became an Avenger before Ghost Rider, Black Bolt and a load of X-Men.
Iron Fist is the best hand to hand fighter in the marvel universe. If you disagree then you probably have him 2nd or 3rd. Wolverine is probably top five. Definitely top ten. He just doesn’t use his fighting skills often and usually just stabs people. I wouldn’t even have Doreen in the top 50.
Squirrel Girl should stay in the pages of her own book where she can be super quirky and talk to her squirrels to her hearts content.
Nope. Sorry. Opinions are opinions, but what’s on the actual page cannot be disputed. Wolverine defeated Iron Fist and was himself defeated by Squirrel Girl. Hence, Doreen is the top fighter in the Marvel Universe.
Suck it, fan boys and girls… Squirrel Girl is unbeatable.
Un-Beat-A-Bel
She’ll defeat Galactus, Dr. Doom, Superman, Mr.T, Captain Planet, the Tellatubbies, Chuck Norris, Wonder Woman, The Beyonder, Coach Ditka, Stretch Armstrong, Rudy Ray Moore… everyone. anywhere. anytime.
Whose the joke character now, cobron?
Kidding of course just seemed like the appropriate response to anyone getting bent out of shape over Squirrel Girl. it’s okay for super hero comics to be fun sometimes…
Squirrel Girl’s plot armor is just a tad bit ridiculous sometimes.
Yes. Completely ridiculous. She’s a silly character and her book is a lot of fun. Arguing over who she could beat or be defeated by in a fight is equally silly. It doesn’t matter. I like North and Henderson’s book quite a bit, but it seems that those who don’t go all sour grapes about it… But whatever eat nuts, kick butts, right?
The whole point of Squirrel Girl is that she is ridiculously amazing.
She is unbeatable.
She is the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl.
That is what makes her awesome. Deal with it.

since Squirrel Girl can kick Dr. Doom’s butt at Will, Doom is kinda scared of her. I wonder if his armor has a colostomy system built-in…
