- Title: The Variants #2
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Gail Simone
- Artist: Phil Noto
There’s quite a lot happening all at once to Jessica Jones. Some old lingering programing from the Purple Man has resurfaced threating everyone around her, variants of Jessica from around the Multiverse have begun appearing (although since Jessica is in no mood to talk with them, it’s not clear what they are after), she’s a little too happy to see Matt Murdock is still alive, and an old friend is attempting to recruit her into a new super-team.
The comic has several cameos including She-Hulk, who shows up as Jessica’s contingency plan if she loses control, with mentions and namedrops of even more characters. As Jessica rolls with the various punches, we keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. Will Kilgrave take control? What do the other Jessica’s want with her and this reality? And what else may happen next?
