C'mon, it's cute. MJ as a superheroine is a good idea- she's got the right personality, she'd have fun with it. I don't see what's Poochie-esque about Jackpot other than her being a new character.

Although I do agree with Chris at the ISB: "This thing contains a reprint of Venom: Lethal Protector.. And it's supposed to make kids WANT to read comics?" AND the first story had Stegron in it. I do love Stegron.
