Overall, Lockjaw & the Pet Avengers #1 is a mega-fun and incredibly entertaining book full of action, adventure and superhero animals Lockjaw (Black Bolt’s dog), Lockheed (everyone’s fave alien dragon), Redwing (Falcon’s falcon pal), Hairball (Speedball’s cat) and, of course, Frog Thor! There’s even a surprise canine companion who ends up tagging along. They’ve all been assembled by Lockjaw to stop a threat that their, er, larger super-powered friends aren’t aware of… since, you know, everyone is really busy right now in the Marvel U.

From this point on, I’ll let the stellar creative team behind this book speak for it with both what they have to say and these great pages Marvel was kind enough to provide.

Dan talks about the events in Mighty Avengers, from the revelation that Loki has been manipulating the Mighty and Dark Avengers, to the Mighty teams upcoming encounter with the Fantastic Four.

On Mighty Avengers and Dan's choice to make Hank Pym leader of the Avengers: "It will get more messed up as we go along for all of Hank's fault he is a genius and has a very non linear way of thinking but he's still that messed-up freak who built Ultron the question is how do you redeem him? Some stink doesn't go away no matter how hard you try it's nice to have Hank on this redemptive path he may never get rid of his past sins, but his trying makes him heroic."
