Doreen Green’s first appearance came in Marvel Super-Heroes Vol. 2 #8 (otherwise known at The Marvel Super-Heroes Winter Special) in January 1992, in a story titled “The Coming of… Squirrel Girl.” Not only did the tale see her team up with Iron Man, but she also managed to defeat Doctor Doom straight off the bat.

After buddying up with Tony Stark, Squirrel Girl is required to save the shellhead when Doom kidnaps him. Thankfully, she finds an ingenious way to take down the master villain who usually causes the Fantastic Four so much trouble… she sends a load of squirrels to attack him.

While it was a great way to introduce a new player to the Marvel universe, it isn’t exactly the highlight of Doom’s criminal career, that’s for sure.
