NEW PET AVENGERS BOOK (ok it’s not called pet avengers but just look at it)
Team stalwarts Throg and Lockjaw return, naturally. Redwing is on the team, like in the original Pet Avengers (which isn’t technically canon to 616, but elements of it, such as Throg’s whole existence, have been incorporated into 616 continuity without explanation.) Bats is on the team, as he was from that one splash page from a Thor issue that led to an entirely off-panel adventure.
Lucky and Chewie are natural choices, and will probably have a character dynamic similar to Hairball and Ms. Lion from the aforementioned original Pet Avengers comics.
The absence of Jeff the Land Shark may seem like a snub, but honestly, he wouldn’t add anything to the character dynamic because you can’t really give him a personality beyond “cute mischievous friendly animal.”
Also, it’s the debut of a new character known as D-Dog, who I assume has super-strength (because it would be weird to have two non-powered dogs on the team) and wears D-Man’s mask.
