By Jess Camacho | Apr 17, 2018 | Television

Going into its second season, Jessica Jones was probably the series with the biggest question mark.

By Benjamin Birdie | Apr 17, 2018 | Columns

1. How good Stuart Immonen is at drawing. Stuart Immonen is a really great artist (inked here, as he usually is, by Wade Von Grawbadger).
