- After a problematic arc that didn’t age well, I’m happy to report that Jessica Jones is back on track.
- In this volume, Jessica investigates the disappearance of a teenage girl who may have been a mutant from a racist garbage fire of a town.
- Her rant against bigotry in the pulpit gives me joy.
- After her case, she goes on a date with Scott Lang.
- Bendis’s sense of voice makes Jessica Jones work as well as it does.
- Gaydos and company’s art remains strong and pulpy, with stellar layouts.
I’m relieved that I enjoyed this arc of Jessica Jones as much as I did; I'm looking forward to the next again.
