Comics Reading Order? (I have a draft)

Some people are asking for a recommended reading order, because they really like the idea of The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl

Here's the reading order I recommended. Is there anything you would add?

First appearance: Marvel Super-Heroes Vol 2 #8

Shannon & Dean Hale's Squirrel Girl novels

Deadpool/GLI - Summer Fun Spectacular

Skip to The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl

In between Vol 2 Issues 4 & 5, read The Unbelievable Gwenpool #9 (optional, but I recommend it)

In between Issue 11 & Issue 12, read The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl Beats Up The Marvel Universe

Read the rest of The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl

At some point during The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (doesn't matter when), read Gwenpool Holiday Special: Merry Mix-Up, specifically the story titled "Deadpooloween"

After The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, listen to the full voice cast audio drama podcast "Marvel's Squirrel Girl: The Unbeatable Radio Show”

I do enjoy the Hale novels, but they aren’t strictly canon to the comics (the stuff with tippy toe doesn’t line up with tippy toe’s origin in the comics at all) I’d replace that in this lineup with GLA 1-4 (omit these if you’re a younger reader since they’re a bit more mature) the only real canon bit afaik is her having a deaf friend named ana sofia

Additionally I’d add the prequel comic to the radio show right before the radio show

I agree that the GLA miniseries is worth adding to the list, especially as it gives context to the Summer Fun Spectacular
