Review: The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #7
Previously in The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #6
Everybody is angry. Kind of like how all of New York City was angry because of the slime flowing under the city in Ghostbusters 2. But this time, it’s not because of slime, it’s because of Girl Squirrel. Otherwise known as Ratatoskr, the talking God-Squirrel who runs up and down the world tree Yggdrasil.
Nancy and Doreen, and new super hero friends Koi Boi and Chipmunk Hunk, head over to Avengers Tower to see if Thor will help them find his fellow Norse-man. However, the Avengers are also affected by the Squirrel slime and Doreen has to sic her squirrels on them to stop them from attacking each other. They take Cap’s cell phone and call Thor. It’s a bad time for Thor to talk because everyone is fighting over whether pancakes or waffles are better. Of course, the answer is waffles.
Thor takes a moment away from the argument to tell Doreen he can’t help her stop Ratatoskr because he is no longer the Thor. She’ll have to go see the new girl Thor to help. Girl Thor, who as of right now, is unnamed, tells Doreen they must go to Asgard to restore Ratatoskr’s bonds to stop her. Doreen doesn’t want to leave Earth to fall to pieces while she’s gone, so Nancy and Tippy-Toe agree to go instead while Doreen and the boys behind to help keep peace and find Girl Squirrel.
They find her in Central Park, pretending not to be herself. She finally confesses she’s the real Ratatoskr and that her plan is to destroy everything so she can rebuild something better. She uses her evil Norse powers to turn all the Squirrels against Doreen. Her and the guys try to fight Girl Squirrel on their own and we’ll have to wait until next month to find out how this fight turns out. I’m pretty sure Doreen will find a way to win. She always does.
