It's 2 issues this month as "Underneath" continues! When Jessica searches for a missing hero, what dark secret will she uncover?
The plot for this arc still hasn't convinced me that I should invest much interest in it, and once again Brian Michael Bendis offers up one of those irksome moments where Jessica's investigation takes a huge leap forward thanks to a character who arrives in the story with the exact information she needed, but made next to no effort to discover herself. Now the book continues to offer up some very enjoyable dialogue exchanges, but it's coming to the point where I'm starting to wonder why Brian Michael Bendis is offering up such conventional plots on this title, as he's proven on his other titles that he can deliver his engaging dialogue alongside equally engaging plots. Now the mystery regarding the tragedy in Jessica's past looks promising, and I'll admit I'm mildly curious what Jessica's next move is going to be in this story, but I can't shake the feeling that this book could be so much more than it is.

Jessica Jones is even closer on the trail of Mattie with a big private investigation underway. The story is interesting and the dialogue and art is very well crafted.
I’m just not as invested in this case as I was with the small-town one. Like, Jessica doesn’t even do any investigating: Malcolm’s friend conveniently has most of the answers she’s looking for about Mattie. This issue still gets a high rating though, because of course I enjoyed the dialogue between Jessica, Malcolm, and Denny’s sister. There’s just too much to love about this series to give it a low rating
