    Meet Jessica Jones, a former costumed super hero who, in fact, stunk at it. With powers unremarkable in comparison to the great icons of Marvel, Jessica never found her niche. But once she hung up her cape, she was surprised at how quickly she fell out of the spandex loop. Sure, she may hang out with some of the Avengers socially, but she`s not welcome in Avengers Mansion. And she feels the rejection. She`s self-destructive, drinks too much, and has a huge inferiority complex. And did we mention that she's now a Private Investigator who specializes in cases of the super human variety? So if you're thirsty for the film noir feel and complex characterization, grab a stool at the bar!

    This comic is really, really good. It features incredibly unique storytelling, as it combines detective/noir with the superhero. While this has been done before, it has never been done in such an updated and relevant way. So while it sheds new, originality on modern superhero comics, it also sheds new light on modern detective stories. The art is really good as there is a lot of experimentation in it. With each panel new variations and ideas are explored, but at the same time it seems to m...
