Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #391

Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #11 — Writer: Ryan North;  Art: Jacob Chabot;  Colors: Rico Renzi Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur #10 — Writers: Amy Reeder and Brandon Montclare;  Art: Natacha Bustos;  Colors: Tamra Bonvillain Patsy Walker, A.K.A. Hellcat #9 — Writer: Kate Leth;  Art: Brittney L. Williams;  Colors: Megan Wilson These three books represent Marvel’s outreach to smart young women readers, from tweens to twenty-somethings.
