As a costumed adventurer, Jessica Jones was plagued by a lack of
self-esteem and an inability to master her superhuman powers. Eventually
she realized that she would forever be considered a second-rate super
hero, and hung up her cape and tights. Now a tough-as-nails private
investigator, Jessica returns home to fi nd a mysterious girl in a
costume hiding in her apartment, but the girl fl ies away before Jessica
can fi nd out who she is. Through sources, Jessica discovers that her
intruder is Mattie Franklin, a.k.a. Spider-Woman, a teenage super hero
with a connection to Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson.
