It’s also one of the cutest and most powerful heroes of the Marvel U!
He’s a pretty big pup, with awesome teleportation powers. He’s royal transportation for the Inhumans, and is in the backdrop of most comic events in the Lee/Kirby era. He’s terribly fond of Ben Grimm, so Johnny Storm has been in his mouth sometimes.
I was worried that Lockjaw, being an Inhuman, meant that he once was a kid exposed to Terrigen mists, then turned into a dog. Which would be terribly cruel. It’s seems like some comics say that because the Inhumans were playing a prank on Ben Grimm? But no one corrected it for years. So now you’ll hear both origins. He’s either a dog or a kid that was exposed to the life-altering mists.
Let’s all…let’s say he was a dog the whole time. Because this is a past that’s far cuter:
Lockjaw puppppppy
And for good measure, here’s our other favorite cosmic canine, in a precarious situation!
Don’t worry, I’ve hardly ever seen him with his helmet closed. He’ll be fine.
Thanks for stopping!
