At the time when a Duplicate Squirrel Girl defeated most of Earth's superhumans and banished them to the [[Negative Zone]], she found that she overlooked Hippo. Squirrel Girl assembled Hippo, [[Flash Thompson|Agent Venom]], [[Kraven the Hunter]], and [[Rocket Raccoon]] to help her and her allies make a stand against the Duplicate Squirrel Girl. While the Duplicate Squirrel Girl found Hippo to be "easily-tossable," he and the others bought Squirrel Girl some time to rescue the other superhumans from the Negative Zone and defeat Duplicate Squirrel Girl.<ref>''Unbeatable Squirrel Girl Beats Up the Marvel Universe'' #1.
