Jessica Jones was originally supposed to be Jessica Drew right?

Yeah. But it would've involved changing stuff around, so bendis just made a new chara I guess

CM tracking $140m-$180m opening.

Which is weird, considering Spider-Woman didn't have a solo, so her primary book at the time was New Avengers... which happens to be another Bendis book.

I'm guessing Jessica Jones if they're keeping that photograph thing from her previous issues. Once again, you can't have Carol be friends with Jessica Drew and Jessica Jones and then make the two characters look virtually identical.

Colorist is the one to blame, for giving Jessica her TV actress's black hair, instead of the brown hair she's meant to have in the comics.

I think Mattia De Iulis does his own colors.

Really good first issue. Thompson's flair for dialogue gives this kick-off plenty of personality.

Will be sticking with this run.

I only paged through the first issue -- mostly to inspect the artwork. Will have to read it later, but the artwork was only okay. The artist has potential, but seems a bit C-list at the moment - which is a problem that has plagued all of CM's series. Marvel just can't or won't assign an A-list artist to the series.

The Nuclear Man's depiction was very generic -- nothing like his previous appearances.

I'm sure Marvel loves that the creative team and cover artist are all females, but the sooner Amanda Conner is off covers -- the better.

Drew wasn't appearing anywhere when ALIAS debuted.

Well...Before you start popping the corks on the Champaign...

Eww.
I'm not about those nonsense youtubers being all aggro.


I'll sip the bubbly instead, thank you.

In semi related news: my casual sweep through Target yesterday afforded me BOTH Marvel Legends Carol figures -- helmeted fig and bomber jacket fig. Woo!

With a mini Chewie/Goose!?

[Triniking1234]

Is that from the upcoming run of JJ where they show Danielle with purple skin?

I hope that's a fake out.

Yup. Jones is supposed to be a brunette with a slight tan. They're just using the actress as reference now.

That was, of course, THE selling point, for that figure.

[Snoop Dogg]

Brown hair Jess is weak. Burn it. We live in the better black hair dimension now. #QueenRitter #JustHaveDrewWearTheGlassesIfTheyShareScenes

I was commenting to a friend the other night... it's going to take ALL of the self-control to not just buy all of the Captain Marvel things now.

Its true.
My husband was like "Whoa! WHOA! Okay CALM DOWN!" as I was looking at her figures (<--purchase) and her dolls, her light up glove for little girls -- Its pretty exciting.
