Private investigator Jessica Jones reluctantly takes the case of a fairly despicable spy/agent who is now being hunted down by forces unknown. Jones is hard-boiled and angsty. The comic tries to add a gritty private detective vibe to superhero land and it does so by including shady S.H.I.E.L.D.

agents with grey motivations instead of superheroes. The grittiness is achieved by *removing* the superheroes. Of course Jessica Jones has some superpowers too, which she seems embarrassed by but which allow her to survive some serious punishments.

I love how Bendis is able to thread Jessica's stories in, through, and around the greater Marvel superhero universe. This volume shows that genius in that Maria Hill's background is effortlessly turned into a fascinating (and tragic) mystery for Jones to unravel.

Well done.
