Liz says: This week saw in the debut of Marvel’s latest Netflix original series, AKA Jessica Jones, and also the reprinted third volume of its source material, ‘Alias’. ‘Alias’ is the story of troubled private detective Jessica Jones, a former C-list superhero struggling to escape an abusive relationship. Marvel had set the bar high for their Netflix Originals with Daredevil, and AKA Jessica Jones doesn’t disappoint; if anything, they’re pulling off something even gutsier here by making this flawed, complicated character their first onscreen female lead. I’d highly recommend anyone left (ahem) jonesing for more Jessica after binge-watching the Netflix series to pick up the books and experience her full story – you’ll be glad you did.
