Marvels Jessica Jones wasted no time in having Luke Cage entering the action in more ways than one. The two heroes have seen each other around, with Cage running a local bar and Jones fitting the description of being local, hot and drinking alone. Within a matter of minutes, the pair end up in bed and engage in some intense, hard sex. Theres a famous (or is that infamous?) moment in the Alias comics where Jones and Cage partake in a particular sexual act, and this shocking moment certainly seemed to be implicated here. Again, this was a hard-hitting happening and one that once more set the tone for what this series is all about.
30. Dead Parents
By the end of the first episode, wed started to get an idea about what uber-rogue Kilgrave was all about as Jessica is suffering from whats almost a form of PTSD after what hed put her through. As poor Hope is finally rescued and reunited with her parents, all seems well and the first episode looked to be ending on a relatively positive note. Only it doesnt. It really, really doesnt. After Hope shockingly kills her parents in an elevator, Jones rushes to the ground floor just in time to find two corpses and young Hope instructing Jessica to smile before the realisation of what shes done takes over. This was almost an Episode Strikes Back-esque ending for the first episode, with doom and pain the order of the day.
