The team roster, drawn from the pets and animal companions of the Marvel Universe's human superheroes, includes:
Line 6:
* Lockjaw, the dog-like alien pet of [[The Inhumans]]
* Hairball, Speedball's pet cat
* Lockheed, [[X-Men (Comic Book)|Kitty Pryde]]'s [[Shoulder -Sized Dragon]]
* Redwing, [[The Falcon (Comic Book)|The Falcon]]'s animal sidekick
* Frog Thor, [[The Mighty Thor]]'s animal counterpart
* Zabu, Ka-Zar's sabretooth tiger companion
Line 20:

{{tropelist}}
=== The Pet Avengers' adventures provide examples of: ===
 
* [[Amplified Animal Aptitude]]: Several of the animals in comparison to their previous depiction in human-centric stories. May be justified by their exposure to the Infinity Gems in the first mini.
* [[Animal Superheroes]]
* [[The Cameo]]: [[Barack Obama]]'s dog Bo lends a paw in the first mini.
* [[Canon Immigrant]]: Ms. Lion, who had previously only appeared in the ''[[Spider -Man and His Amazing Friends]]'' animated series.
* [[Covers Always Lie]]: The final issue of ''Unleashed'' has a cover announcing "The Pet Avengers against an incredibly evil beast SO BIG that he won't even fit on the cover!" The Pet Avengers do fight an enormous beast, but "incredibly evil" is not a fair description and it's not nearly the most important thing that happens in the issue.
* [[The Ditz]]: Ms. Lion.
