After appearing in her own solo series, Squirrel Girl is now creating her own podcast series titled, Marvel's Squirrel Girl: The Unbeatable Radio Show.

She receives help from her friend Nancy Whitehead, who will be producing the show, and Tippy Toe, her squirrel friend, who will assist her in the booth.

Scripted by Ryan North, the SiriusXM podcast series has six episodes and will see Milana Vayntrub as the voice artist. For the unacquainted, Milana was cast as Squirrel Girl in the live action movie of the superheroine which is not in production as of yet.

On the subject of Doreen, Ryan North told Variety,

“Doreen has an optimism that’s not based in naiveté. Her optimism is grounded in fairness and trust and justice. I think she — like me and in a way, she’s more of who I want to be like — really believes there is good in all people and that justice is not punishment, but justice is restorative and it’s about people taking accountability and it’s becoming better versions of themselves."

So Ryan has also written a tie-in comics to support the podcast, which released on April 18 on Marvel Unlimited. The comic is available in the Infinity comics format, and it is the prequel to Marvel's Squirrel Girl: The Unbeatable Radio Show.
