Squirrel Story

Jake meets the enemy in "One J at a Time"

A story that takes the neurotic Jake Morgendorffer's self-declared war with Lawndale's local squirrel population to an extreme. These are almost always comedies of ludicrous content. Crossovers featuring famous cartoon squirrels are not uncommon. A list of various "official" squirrel appearances in Daria canon can be found in the Daria Character Database on Glitter Berries.
