IGN - Jesse Schedeen
Apr 06, 2017The creators deliver a very emotionally rich new chapter here, one that explores the highs and lows of the Luke/Jessica romance in the aftermath of the latter's recent mistakes. Read Full Review

Fortress of Solitude - Rick Austin
Apr 11, 2017It's pretentious to say that it's like a fine wine which should be savoured. It's also wrong. Instead, it's like downing a shot of Jack Daniels: it goes down fast, but it kicks like a mule and the aftertaste lingers. Read Full Review

Black Nerd Problems - Jordan Calhoun
Apr 05, 2017As the arc gets started, we are best off starting fresh with the potential of what Maria Hill brings to the story as she cameos in what appears to be an important role in what Jessica is getting into next. Again, trouble finds Jessica and she is set up to be a misunderstood victim of her circumstances, a woman trapped in an impossible situation in which she can only do her best when her best is never enough" so we may have seen this before. But here's hoping for something new, something intriguing, or at least something with higher stakes than unseen potential victims or Luke Cage's stern disapproval. Read Full Review

Graphic Policy - SHAY REVOLVER
Apr 22, 2017The story is convoluted, unrealistic, and hackneyed. It is the epitome of what men think women want and are like. Bendis portrays Jones as a one-dimensional, agencyless, manic pixie detective for hire in her own story. There are so many character cameos, Cage, Rand, and Hill, that it feels like Bendis really wanted to write these other comics but, didn't get hired so he's cramming them all into the Jessica Jones' solo outing and forgetting to tell her story in an authentic way. He actually seems to take more care in the scenes that Rand and Cage are in making sure they're featured than he does making sure that we know that it's a Jessica Jones' comic. Even the artwork is steadier and more detailed for the male characters than it is for Jessica. It's insulting & derivative and trite and, both the readers and Jessica deserve more. Read Full Review

Comics: The Gathering - Ryan.L
Apr 05, 2017It's sad that we are only on issue number seven and we are having this problem. Hopefully things will pick up but I'm afraid that the damage has already been done and this series could suffer because of it. Read Full Review

Jessica Jones 7 acts as a perfect continuation of the first 6 issues but acts as a poor opener to this new arc. Maria Hill barely appears but the Jessica and Luke scenes were just plain heartwarming

Danielle Cage comes super-close to reuniting her parents, but no cigar. Awww. Meanwhile, why is Maria Hill bleeding all over Jess's bathroom? This is the issue where the subtle themes of self-destruction that have run through the whole title really come to the forefront. One of the biggest but subtlest running questions has been "is Jess gonna start drinking again?" In issue #7 we get an emphatic "no" after a little supreme temptation. Though her first attempt to patch things up with Luke doesn't work out great, making the effort counts. And the upcoming Hill case should do a great job of giving her detective brain something to chew on while she keeps trying with Luke.

I love this book. No happy ending for Luke and Jessica yet, but the tension is good.

This series has been pretty erratic so far, with Bendis impressing me at one turn and infuriating me at the next, but this issue I enjoyed. The two pages with Jessica in the liquor store amongst countless bottles (countless escapes) says a lot about where she is right now without words. I still find her choices regarding going undercover and risking her family for it head shaking, but this is a good issue.

Lots of things are resolved.. maybe a bit too easily? Danny said he couldn't help her .. then he did? WTH? But the saving grace for me was a very subtle tie-in to one of my favorite things I've seen lately... Recently in U.S. Avengers we saw an awesome new female Captain America who is not the horrible America Vasquez... she is from the future and Jessica Jones' and Luke Cage's daughter. Here, we see the baby.. is wearing a Captain America T-Shirt. I loved it!
