According to her official Marvel powergrid, ''[[Word of God|all of Doreen's stats are through the roof]], at the same level as the [[Guardian of the Multiverse|Living]] [[Physical God|Tribunal]]''.
Squirrel Girl first appeared in a one-shot story in 1992 in [[Anthology Comic]] ''Marvel Super-Heroes Special'' #8 (Winter, 1991); after [[Info Dump|explaining her powers]] to [[Iron Man]], she showed her [[God Mode Sue|invincibility]] by defeating both [[Iron Man]] ''and'' [[Dr. Doom]]. The story was written by Will Murray and drawn by Marvel Comics legend [[Steve Ditko|Steve]] [[Armed with Canon|freakin'
Few people actually read the story when it first came out, but after scans of the comic were posted on the Internet, Squirrel Girl slowly became an [[Memetic Mutation|Internet meme]]. The fact that Dr. Doom was defeated in such a ridiculous manner, combined with the fact that it was one of the few Doom losses that was never [[Retcon|retconned]] as being [[Actually a Doombot]] due to the obscurity and ridiculousness of the story, allowed Squirrel Girl to become a popular [[Memetic Badass]] in Internet fight threads -- despite having only appeared once in a story that virtually no one had read. She became an [[Ascended Meme]] in 2005, when Dan Slott put her on the [[Great Lakes Avengers]] in the ''[[Great Lakes Avengers]]: Misassembled'' mini-series.
