One episode in …
This is not Brian Bendis' Alias comic. But it is is so Brian Bendis' Alias comic. Which is to say, while the specific plotline is askew, the underlying character arc is so there, and the characters …
Yes, that is Jessica. Krysten Ritter is doing an excellent job. And yes, that is the horror of her life. And yes, she is powered, and yes, it's not the focus of who she is or what she does or why she feels the way she feels.

I have heard people say already that this is the best comic book adaptation to date, better than Daredevil even. I don't know that I can say that yet, but I definitely see it gunning for that spot. I look forward to seeing if it succeeds.
Could be so much better than Daredevil but the writing needs tightening up.
Haven't watched any episodes yet but will definitely make sure to watch at least a few this weekend.
A lot of it is artificial and only happens for plot's sake.
Even so, well-executed.
+Patrick Bick Not sure I follow you (at least one episode in).
+Dave Hill Superhero trope. We could kill him but nope, let's not and pretend we're better.
+Patrick Bick Since that doesn't match anything I've seen in the one episode watched so far, I'll assume that it's a reference to a later episode and leave it there.
Joined Netflix yesterday for this show.
Ah, binge watching. Now I get it.
You have much to look forward to.
I have to re-evaluate my notion of watching Daredevil in measured 1-2 eps a night doses.
