A history in print
Though she wasn’t the best known of characters, Jess Jones did start out as a comic book back in 2001. Retconned into the Marvel U, she was a fan favorite too, with plenty of readers. That’s probably why she was selected for TV in the first place. So with that in mind, it’s only fair that she return to the printed page.
From the looks of things here in this preview, it’s set to be every bit as gritty as the show. Scroll down for a preview of what’ll be hitting. Issue #1 arrives from the team of Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos, on shelves and in digital format, on October 12th.
