The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #36

Issue #36 of The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl hands the cover spotlight entirely to Tippy-Toe, Doreen's beloved squirrel companion, rendered here in a gorgeous, almost painterly close-up — wide blue eyes, a jaunty red bow, and a single hushed "Shh!" that somehow says everything. It's an unexpectedly tender and funny image that captures exactly why this series has such a devoted following. Ryan North, Derek Charm, and Rico Renzi keep delivering, and this 2018 issue is a fine reminder of the series' warm, delightfully offbeat charm.
