• Comics have been famously described as "pictorial and other images in deliberate sequence," but do you need words, too? Perhaps so, but also...PERHAPS NOT??
• In this special, standalone, ALL-SILENT ISSUE of the UNBEATABLE SQUIRREL GIRL, she and Iron Man face off against a villain neither has seen before - who will render them quite literally speechless!
• It's an action-packed adventure that anyone can read, filled with surprises, excitement, action and - for once - NO WORDS!
• This is what Ryan gets for jamming so many words into previous issues.

You'll often find yourself smiling as you turn the page, and honestly it's hard to think of a better use of your time. Read Full Review
The plot is pretty straight-forward: spooky, matronly ghost shushes all of New York City, superheroes try and fix the issue. The real story here is the treatment of both the ghost and Squirrel Girl by the mainstream heroes who, not being able or willing to communicate, fail over and over again. Brute force isn't always the answer. As an educator, Doreen understands that sometimes the answer isn't kicking butts, but eating nuts and kicking peer-reviewed research! Read Full Review
Unbeatable Squirrel Girl spends an issuing doing a "no dialogue" story and it works splendidly. Everything about this issue is delightful and pure Squirrel Girl. Read Full Review
A powerful ghost librarian subjects New York to a curse of silence: Time for a no-dialogue one-shot! The script cheats the premise a little bit by relying on books (and custom t-shirts) to convey plot-critical information. On the other hand, you get characters drawing THEIR OWN no-dialogue comics WITHIN the no-dialogue comic to communicate, and that's dang clever. It's sweet, it's funny, it's stuffed with background gags - everything Squirrel Girl is supposed to be.
