I think I finally get it. If you’ve seen the episode of The Twilight Zone, It’s a Good Life you know Kilgrave–despite the fact that it aired 50 or so years prior. That story revolved around a little boy who had the ability to manifest anything that he desired. The adults around him were so cowed […]

After unwittingly helping to orchestrate a tragedy, Jessica Jones tries to find out why Kilgrave is back.
Welcome, True Believers to the commentary on the first episode of Marvel’s Jessica Jones.
