Squirrel Girl) Character 10 out of 12 the Red Lines and Text Underneath the Top Chart Indicate Some of the Main Comics That the Character Appeared In In the top chart, I collapsed the months and aggregated a Marvel The Pendulum of Popularity as Seen Rising, whole year's appearances into one set of concentrated season in Twelve Sporadically-Appearing boxes, so it looks more like a bar chart. 1 Comic Characters: Therefore, the bottom chart shows a more fine-grained picture of exactly when the character appeared, and the top A Series of Charts chart provides a better visualization of how their total appearances ebbed and flowed. Doreen Green (Squirrel Girl) Character 10 out of 12 The red lines and text underneath the top chart indicate some of the main comics that the character appeared in. First appearance: 1992 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Total appearances: 206 The red lines show the years the character appeared in those series. These featured red comics are a subjectively-chosen First Great Lakes New Avengers Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (vol.2015b) How These Charts Were Developed selection of all the comics the characters were in; they are appearance: Avengers stories (v.2010) intended to show the main drivers of the character's Marvel All the characters for this series of charts were selected Super New Avengers Avengers because there is a sporadic pattern to their comic-book appearances at any given time, not to provide a complete Heroes (v.2015) (v.2018) #8 appearances, whether due to deaths and resurrections, list.

Gwenpool If the character was in a comic where more than one volume Howard U.S. Avengers "Appearances" here only include actual, original comic the Duck book appearances. They do not include reprints, had the same (or a very similar) title, then I listed the year (vol.2016) handbooks, or promotional comics. I did include some the volume started after the name of the volume. Patsy Walker, edge-case issues like the infamous Marvel Swimsuit A.K.A. Hellcat! comics that are not stories, but are in a sense new material. Marvel: Avengers Alliance I got the information almost entirely from the website Comic Vine, although I used other sites when necessary. The Unbeatable Since Comic Vine is a wiki, its information is only as Squirrel Girl Beats Up the accurate as its wiki-writers, but generally speaking I find Marvel it to be very reliable when it comes to this sort of factual Universe OGN information. Any mistakes are more likely to be my own, since I transcribed all the data by hand and "hand-designed" the chart. January The list of appearances accurately reflect the content of February the wiki as of October 29, 2019. March All dates are cover dates, not in-store dates. April Key May If the characters were in any major movies or TV shows, I listed them in blue above the appropriate dates, so that June any correlation with an increase (or lack thereof) in the July number of their comic appearances around that time can be seen. August In the bottom chart to the right, each black square September represents one comic appearance by the character in a October given month. The more black squares per month, the more appearances by that character for that month. November There are nine possible spaces for each month; nine was December chosen because that was the most appearances any character in this project had in a single month.

    The Empowering Squirrel Girl Jayme Horne Submitted for History of Art 390 Feminism and History of Art Professor Ellen Shortell Massachusetts College of Art and Design All the strength of a squirrel multiplied to the size of a girl? That must be the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (fig. 1)! This paper will explore Marvel’s Squirrel Girl character, from her introduction as a joke character to her 2015 The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl ​ comic series which is being harold as being extremely empowering. This paper aims to understand why a hero like Squirrel Girl would be harold and celebrated by fans, while other female heroes with feminist qualities like Captain Marvel or the New Almighty Thor might be receiving not as much praise. Squirrel Girl was created by Will Murray and artist Steve Ditko. Despite both of them having both worked for Marvel and DC, and having written stories about fan favorites like Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, and others, they are most known for creating Squirrel Girl, also known as Doreen Green. Her powers include superhuman strength, a furry, prehensile tail (roughly 3-4 feet long), squirrel-like buck teeth, squirrel-like retractable knuckle claws, as well as being able to communicate with squirrels and summon a squirrel army. She was first introduced in 1991, where she ambushed Iron Man in attempt to impress him and convince him to make her an Avenger. That’s when they were attacked one of Marvel’s most infamous and deadly villains, Doctor Doom. After Doctor Doom has defeated Iron Man, Squirrel Girl jumps in with her squirrel army and saves Iron Man1 (fig.
