And, of course, the Avengers bring their full might to protect one of their own (well, in this case). So, in her hazy mental state, Jessica attacks Scarlet Witch, believing she's Daredevil. One day, he instead decides to send Jessica to kill Daredevil, despite his powers wearing off at a distance. Although Killgrave never touches Jessica, he keeps her as a pet, forcing her to watch him have sex with other people. What happens next is one of the most accurate depictions of emotional and psychological abuse I've ever seen in a comic book. In addition to having a penchant for sexual assault, kidnapping, and homicide, Killgrave has a real problem with costumed heroes.īut once Purple Man gets his hooks into Jessica, he doesn't want to let her go and kidnaps her for eight months. Unfortunately, she only has the chance to go on a handful of adventures before being kidnapped by one of Marvel's biggest bads, Killgrave (AKA The Purple Man) who can make anyone do anything he wants. Inspired by Spider-Man, she decides to help others, donning the Jewel costume for the first time. After a tragic accident that allegedly killed the rest of Jessica's family, she discovers the radioactive material her family crashed into gave her superpowers. Jessica Jones (formerly known as Jewel) is a superhero (although she prefers not to don the white and blue unitard) and runs Alias Investigations, a small private investigations firm.

After taking what seems to be a routine case, Jessica Jones' investigation turns out to be anything but typical, bringing Jessica face-to-face with her past (and herself).
