Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #10 - A Review

What can I say about this book that isn't said by its cover?


...

Well, I'd better say something or we don't have a review!

Squirrel Girl's non-violent efforts to deal with Mole Man's latest invasion of the surface world have won his heart. Unfortunately, her efforts to let him down easy when he asked her to be queen of the his realm were less successful. Now, with the great monuments of the world under siege (and under-ground!), the pressure is on for Squirrel Girl to give Mole Man the dream date he so desperately wants. But can she give up her agency and self-respect for the sake of the world?
This book is as hilarious as ever and it is to the creators' credit that they don't make the obvious joke about basement-dwelling men's rights activists. This book makes its point about a serious problem (particularly in fandom circles) without losing its stride or its sense of humor and it looks great while doing it. If you don't read The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, then you should!
