    All-Comic - Matthew Tupper Mar 20, 2015

    There is a reason so many writers have wanted to do Squirrel Girl stories since her inception in the early 90's. She is so goofy yet likable, and the possibilities are endless for combining Marvel supervillains with her stories. With Matt Fraction leavingHawkeye,The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl may be the best continuing series from Marvel right now. Read Full Review

    Bounding Into Comics - Nick Ford Jul 15, 2015

    Once again, the ways that both the bank robbers and Whiplash are handled in their respective fights are nothing short of brilliant. Squirrel Girl makes use of all of her talents and uses the lightest bit of logic mixed in with a lot of humor and fun to make her strategies work. They are eccentric as they are compelling.

    The Latest Pull - sonny larios Mar 20, 2015

    Overall, The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl # 3 is a fun issue for all ages with its cartoonish feel and it's light-hearted approach, with a little bit of urgency, but not too much to make this a serious issue. There are many jokes that work and with the mix of gags and creative writing, there is something in here that would make anyone chuckle at least once. If you are looking for a comic that you want to give a little kid or you want to read something that has fun, crazy adventures that make you feel like a kid watching Saturday morning cartoons, then this is worth a pick up.

    If you haven't figured it out by now, The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl is perfect book for any younger reader and for Marvel fans who might want a dose of light-hearted fun (there's that word again), but it's also shining a light on one of Marvel's more off-beat characters and giving her a platform to do some serious heriocs and giving us a few laughs in the process.

    Its rare to see a creative team completely in sync with one another, but thats what we have with The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl. The writing is quirky, the art borders on strange, but together they achieve wonderful comics. Read Full Review

    It's tough to say how the book's sporadic structure will hold over time, but as of now the pairing of North and Henderson remains darn near unbeatable. Read Full Review

    Comic Vine - Mat 'Inferiorego' Elfring Mar 18, 2015

    THE UNBEATABLE SQUIRREL GIRL is a pretty exciting and entertaining book. It's nice to see another character grab a hold of a zany personality and run full-force with it. The creative team has something special here and this book is a nice gateway comic for people to become comic book readers. If they're into having a laugh and enjoying the Marvel movies, give them this. Don't just toss Civil War at them right away. The thing is that this book isn't for everyone. Sometimes, it's a bit much for me, but that's totally ok. It's still well put together and it does a great job telling a story with words and art. Read Full Review

    Henchman-4-Hire - Sean Ian Mills Mar 21, 2015

    Unbeatable Squirrel Girl is the funniest comic I'm reading, hands down. There are plenty of funny books out there, but Ryan North's Squirrel Girl is consistently laugh-out-loud hilarious. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Aaron Halverson Mar 19, 2015

    This book was close to getting the highest score but I feel like I've been giving those away too much lately and even though this book makes me laugh and gives me that kid rush of reading comic books I've got to tone it down. But this book does fill me with that unbridled enthusiasm for comic books that makes me what to impulsively call it the best thing out there without giving it much thought. Read Full Review

    While some of the pacing slows down Doreen Green's misadventures, Ryan North and Erica Henderson still make Unbeatable Squirrel Girl a riot to read. Read Full Review

    Moargeek - Matt Lyons Apr 2, 2015

    Doreen's big fight with Galactus is put off for another issue as she fights off another smaller villain, Whiplash. Putting on a suit made of squirrels is great, but some of Ryan North's comedy this time around is just a bit too based on randomness, and not setting up good jokes. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Resources - Greg McElhatton Mar 19, 2015

    "The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl" #3 is deliberately silly but it knows exactly what it's aiming for. It's not setting the world on fire but it doesn't need to, either; it's Squirrel Girl, after all. North, Henderson and Renzi have just the right attitude to make this kind of comic succeed.

    Weekly Comic Book Review - Danny Wall Mar 24, 2015

    It's a silly book, but that's kind of why we're buying something called The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, isn't it? The art has some wonderfully timed moments and visual gags, but the humor in the script and plot isn't as strong, veering into being forced and too illogical for its own good. Sorry, I just can't get over the image of what happens when you surround your fist in squirrel and then try to punch something with it. Maybe I'm watching too many Quentin Tarentino movies.
