Review:
J. Jonah Jamison is losing it over pigeons, and there's a villain in Central Park causing problems. Spider-Man keeps expecting to be asked to help fight the villain but is instead asked to watch out for an increasingly ridiculous number of superhero pets.
This was cute and light, very much written for kids but still appealing to me, an adult. There are occasional animals in danger, but none are harmed (even though things didn't look great for the goldfish for a while). There's definitely a goofy tinge to the story, as Nick Fury, for example, literally pokes his head out of a mailbox.
There's a dolphin talisman mentioned near the end with no info about whether it's a reference to something readers should already know and recognize or part of the set-up for a future volume. It turns out to be the latter, but there's no "to be continued" at the end of the volume to let you know this.
All in all, I liked this and wish some of the pets could have gotten more page-time.
