    Comics Bulletin - Matthew J. Brady May 12, 2009

    It should be great fun to see this story play out, and here's hoping for some good animal action and more interspecies comedy. Marvel could have a sleeper hit on their hands, so don't miss out. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Resources - Doug Zawisza May 17, 2009

    This is a title that has come out of nowhere and deserves some recognition as it takes less than Z-list characters and offers an enjoyable tale that can be shared with long-term fans and younger readers alike. Eliopoulos gives of these characters each a voice and a reason to join up, but among them Lockheed really touched me in a way I hadn't thought of much before now. Be sure to check out the generous twelve-page preview on CBR for a sample of what this issue holds in store. Read Full Review

    The Comic Addiction - Derek Bowman May 17, 2009

    This is a series that anyone in the family could read from child to grandfather, and enjoy and have a pleasurable read. The concept is ridiculous in a good way, and is filled with laughs. While it is far from the most complex book on the stands, it is easily the most classic Avengers book on the stands. Read Full Review

    Weekly Comic Book Review - Kyle Posluszny May 16, 2009

    Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers is off to an entertaining, though unspectacular start. I recommend that anyone curious about the series check it out. It's a decent, solid piece of animal-centric entertainment. Read Full Review
