Lockjaw is such a great character. What’s cooler than an inter-dimensional teleporting bull dog. The cosmic canine first appeared in Fantastic Four 45 as a member of the Inhumans royal family. Originally a Inhuman child, Lockjaw was exposed to Terrigen Mists and transformed into the shape of a giant bull dog. Though he is generally treated like a pet for the Inhumans, he does have human level intelligence and can talk (though he rarely does). Lockjaw’s main ability is to teleport a large number of people roughly the distance of the earth to the moon or to different dimensions.

Lockjaw is now the star of his own limited series Lockjaw and the Pet Avengers. Featuring Kitty Pryde’s dragon Lockheed, Falcon’s falcon Redwing, Firestar’s puppy Ms. Lion, Ka-Zar sabertooth tiger Zabu, Speedball’s cat Niels and Frog Thor or Throg, Lockjaw has his own super team of weirdo pets ready to be teleported into action at any minute.

Still, its the classic 60s Lockjaw that I like the best. What was up with his relationship with Crystal? The picture up top definitely looks like their relationship goes beyond pet and master. All I know is I would give Lockjaw best-in-show any day.
