Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers # 1




Reed Richards is on the moon informing the Inhumans that the Infinity Gems are out there somewhere and that only people with steely resolve should find them. As fate would have it, everyone's favorite mustachioed giant bulldog with a tuning fork coming out of his head, Lockjaw finds the Mind Gem. He teleports back to try and tell Black Bolt, Medusa, and Reed but they ignore him because he's obviously just a giant dumb dog. Medusa tells him to teleport away and Lockjaw does going to Central Park.

He meets Throg, the guy who got turned into a frog and then found a piece of Thor's hammer turning him into a Thor Frog. The Mind gem has created a mental link that allows Lockjaw to communicate. He convinces Throg to join him on his quest to find the rest of the Infinity gems. They then go to the X-Mansion and recruit Lockheed, who is depressed because everyone he knows is dead or gone. Next up they recruit the Falcon's falcon who believes himself to be superior to everyone else. Next they run into Hairball, Speedball's pet cat with the same powers (why Hairball is no longer P-Cat, The Penitent Puss is not explained). Pestering the crap out of Hairball is Ms. Lions, Aunt May's pet male dog. Ms. Lions is apparently retarded and everyone hates him, just like Aunt May.

Lockjaw then takes the world's best animal superheroes to the Savage Land where they find the TIME GEM, which gets put into Lockheed's care. Then a T-Rex shows up and the issue is to be continued.


Someone should buy me this or a Throg action figure if there is one.
