Back from Vacation – Just in Time for More Jessica Jones!

Hey everybody! Your regularly scheduled Henchman-4-Hire is back from vacation, finally, and we’re ready to get this blog back in order. Thank you very much to Alyssa for filling in with some fun videos while I was gone, but I’m ready to get back to work. Be sure to tune in later this morning for my review of Teen Titans #13.

But for now, Marvel and Netflix have released a second full-length trailer for Jessica Jones!

It’s not as evocative as the first, but I suppose it’s time to get into the nitty gritty now that the show is only a week away! I still cannot wait.

6 Minor Marvel Characters I Want to Pop Up on the Netflix Defenders

The Marvel Cinematic Universe just keeps growing by leaps and bounds! Not only is Spider-Man on board, but Mockingbird is now a permanent addition to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Patsy Walker is going to appear in the upcoming Jessica Jones show on Netflix — which debuts in only a few days! We live in an age where a live action Beta Ray Bill is a distinct possibility.

Soon

So being the comic book geek that I am, and considering I’m still on my vacation abroad and could use an easy topic, how about we play one of my favorite games and talk about what comic book characters we’d still like to see in the MCU. Specifically, if a character like Hellcat can get a supporting role on Netflix, and if the doors are open for Punisher to star as the villain of Daredevil season 2, what other minor Marvel characters could get a cameo or a starring role on the Netflix level? The sky’s the limit now! Barring any X-Men or Fantastic Four cast members, of course. We don’t live in a perfect world yet.

Join me after the jump for a few of my choices! And feel free to add your own in the comments!

The First Full Jessica Jones Trailer is Mega Scary

It’s possible we may never be able to see David Tennant the same way again. Make sure you have his best episodes of Doctor Who handy when you watch Jessica Jones in order to decompress! This trailer is scary as all get out, and Krysten Ritter looks perfect in the lead role!

Oh man, that is hauntingly good. Spooky, painful, dark; and we thought Daredevil was good. Jessica Jones is gonna be crazy good! Can’t wait for this show to arrive on Netflix on Nov. 20!

Daredevil Season Teased Like There’s Just No Tomorrow!

Did you hear they’re going to make another season of Daredevil? That’s what they do with hit TV shows! A little mini-trailer arrived at New York Comic-Con this past weekend! Check out the first teases of Elektra and the Punisher.

Good times. Good times. They also aired the first episode of Jessica Jones at Comic-Con, and word has it the show is awesome. So all around, things sound pretty awesome!

Jessica Jones Teaser Trailer Evokes Art & Music

The first teaser trailer for Jessica Jones, the next Marvel Netflix show, hit the Internet today, and it’s very evocative. We’ve got moody music, shifty art, and a determined confidence. I like it already!

Of course, comic book fans will recognize the art style as being very reminiscent of Jessica Jones’ original comic book covers. The series was Alias, and it got pretty dark. We’re expecting the show to get just as dark.

This trailer also finally reveals the release date: Nov. 20!

Every episode will go live on Nov. 20, so just like Daredevil, we can watch them all in a weekend! I am definitely excited for this show!
