The story that North and Henderson are telling pits Squirrel Girl against a new and dangerous enemy: an evil duplicate created through a combination of computer and regular science. The nice thing about Squirrel Girl is that shes smart, and she looks for situations that dont necessarily involve punching people all the time, said North. But shes done all these really amazing things, like take down Thanos and Galactus and all these heavy hitters in the Marvel Universe. And what I think is going to be fun is if there was a version of Squirrel Girl that had all her powers, had her incredible strength and her squirrel ability
but without the restraint and the empathy. That would be a big problem, he added with a laugh. And itll be fun to see a Squirrel Girl that does punch first and ask questions later. Thats a hard person to stop, I think, but shes a really powerful character.
So powerful, she beats up the entire Marvel Universe, as reflected in the new art. Its a reference to the old Punisher Kills The Marvel Universe cover, but we also thought it would work on this. Theyre not dead on this one, though, teased Henderson. Details about the specifics of the graphic novel are being kept under wraps, but the creative team can tease one fun tidbit: Squirrel Girl and Iron Man, who have so far only interacted through a series of tweets and social media, will finally meet face-to-face.
