Jessica survives mind control thanks to the worst possible ally. Everything ends well for her, but not before she goes to the ragged edge of murder & suicide. The art's spectacular, both the "conventional" combat at the end and the deeply creepy mind-control segment that precedes it. The dialogue is solid and the character work is moving. The plot works mainly on a rational cause-and-effect level, though. That makes the finale satisfying, but it doesn't have as much emotional muscle as the heavyweight set-up that came before.
