I realised something tonight- despite half the people I know being INCREDIBLY overexcited for Jessica Jones starting in November I still haven't got the faintest clue who/what she is. I mean I know it's a Marvel thing but is she a super hero? a mutant? an ordinary person caught up in all the aliens & superhero nonsense? Just no idea whatsoever

I also have no idea about Jessica Jones. I did read a wiki article when they first announced it, but I can't remember anything about it now.

Boooo to people making demands on you and using your free evening. So annoying when that happens!

I'm glad it's not just me!

Very frustrating :-( especially when tomorrow evening & Saturday are all ready work days too. BAH.

I think she's the She-Hulk. From what I have gathered. Which might be why people aren't talking about who she is so much, because they don't want people to be confused and think it's the Hulk. Also she does a lot of work in her lawyer guise apparently, so her day-to-day persona is quite important to her story I guess. I assume it's just a niche thing.

Really? Wow. I had not picked that up at all. The lawyer thing (or at least some kind of legal connection) but not the Hulk thing. And now I think of it I have no clue what She-Hulk's name is either so yes.

I think it'll be a wait and see kind of a show.

(thank you!)

No, She-Hulk is Jen Waters. Jessica Jones is an ex-superhero who retired from superheroing after a traumatic experience at the hands of a mind-controlling supervillain (although that's all I really know about her -- looking forward to the show though because David Tennant is in it. He's the mind-controlling supervillain).

[morganmuffle]

See I knew David Tennant was in it!

I really need to go wikipedia her or something but then I wonder if just experiencing it without knowing might be better?

I just wish some of their press gave a better hint at what was to come.
