This article consists of nothing butJessica Jones Season 3spoilers.
We have aspoiler free review right hereif you prefer.
Now, pour yourself a glass of something good and lets get to work… Jessicas upbeat, professional receptionist is named Gillian, played by trans actress Aneesh Sheth.
Jeri Hogarths apartment number is 6C.
Its worth pointing out that Jeryn Hogarth, her Marvel Comics counterpart, first appeared inIron Fist#6.
So this apartment number is 6 Comics?
Or its a coincidence.
The scuzzy drunken baseball player plays for the fictional New York Scouts.
In Dorothy Walkers apartment theres a framedPatsy Walkercomic on her night table.
On Patsys desk theres a newspaper with the headline Breaking Ground on it.
We couldnt make out what that was in reference to and will check again.
Neither Peter Lyonne nor Kith Lyonne have any Marvel Comics parallels that were aware of.
That actress is Sarita Choudhury, who played Sauls wife Mira on the first few seasons ofHomeland.
Jeri cracks that she only represents a couple of them in regards to superheroes she provides services for.
One of those is Jessica, and of course there is theIron Fistconnection.
Patsys bright yellow shirt under her black/dark blue outfit while skulking around is an homage/tease of her Hellcat costume.
Detective Costa is back again and references his husband who we eventually (briefly) meet.
Shes never been considered bulletproof, but it does seem like she gets stabbed a little too easily here.
Also, note the wild eyes of the ski-masked would-be assassin here.
When the villain is revealed in a few episodes, this feels like a minor Marvel Comics Easter egg.
Not an Easter egg, but its fun to know that this episode was directed by Krysten Ritter!
This is the first and only episode to be narrated by anyone other than Jessica.
Bing employees do not use Bing.
This is a nice bookend tothe briefly glimpsed Jewel costume she presented to Jessica in season 1.
Andthis wouldnt be the first overt TMNT reference in the Marvel Netflix universe, either!
The red/black/gold leather look that she passes over does look veryCaptain Marvel.
Fans assumed it was a Captain Marvel jacket but it was apparently just a coincidence.
The hat also has a kind of cat scratch motif.
Hell, shes even modeling a yellow cardigan on that awful home shopping show!
Its hilarious and Peak Rich White Lady that in the end she just goes with athleisure.
Kinda like Danny Rands crimefighting gear onIron Fist.
There doesnt appear to be any significance to either Andrew Brandt or his sister, Madeline.
If only they had gone with Ellen Brandt as the sisters name, we would have a Man-Thing connection!
And she definitely doesnt put in effort.
Jeri reconnects with her college flame, Kith.
Were having trouble figuring out if Malcolms new girlfriend, Zaya, has any Marvel Comics connections.
Victor Catalda keeps coming up and…still no MCU significance that we can find!
It might be a coincidence, but we visit the Cassaro Gallery.
Its fascinating, revealing, hilarious…read it.
Malcolm digs up dirt on Kiths husband.
So it turns out that Erik is a metahuman.
His full name Erik Gelden.
Which means we finally know who he is!
Erik Gelden is an exceedingly minor Marvel Comics villain known asMind-Wave.
He first appeared, appropriately enough, in the pages ofDaredevil#133 in 1976.
He ended up dying a couple of times (comics!
Jess refers to The Whizzers unfortunate death in season 2.Remember The Whizzer?Poor guy.
They already did a child porn angle onThe Punisherseason 2.
Maybe this creep was part of that same ring.
Whilethe X-Men are indeed on their way to the MCU…this aint it, kids.
Remember that wild shot of his eyes in the ski mask at the end of the first episode?
Oh, and heresa weird bit of connection.
In the comics, Gregory Sallinger went to college with Peter Parker.
And in the comics, Jessica Jones went to high school with Peter Parker!
Oh, and remember up above when we were trying to reach for that Man-Thing connection?
That wasnt just because of the silly name.
Jeffs plot to expose Peter yields unexpected consequences.
Theyre being a little on-the-nose with the literal blood money in this episode.
If the term Chinese wall strikes you as strange, youre not alone.
Common suggestions to replace it?
Eriks sisters name is Brianna, and goes by the nickname of Berry.
This shows fake social media is the best.
CiaoHive, and later we get InstaYap.
Were currently hoping to have aDen of GeekCiaoHive account set up by the end of the day.
But it would be cool.
Cmon, that doesnt belong on a show like Jessica Jones.
This is pretty much SOP for their relationship though.
As far as we know, Gregory Sallinger never had a brother named Donny in the comics.
As expected, WJBP TV is back!
Theyre basically the official local news station of the MCU version of NYC.
Jessicas Interpol shirt is pretty sharp.
We just wanted to point that out.
People around you get hurt.
So, this might be the deepest cut in the history of the Marvel Netflix shows.
Gregory is teaching wrestling at the Willie Dance Community Center.
Willie Dance appeared exactly ONE in Marvel Comics, in the pages ofLuke Cagein 1975.
He was a dim-witted wrestler who accidentally drank the super soldier serum and became X the Marvel.
Jeri demands that Malcolm identify the masked woman.
This episode is high on drama and stakes but light on Marvel Easter eggs.
Thats fine with us.
But its not completely bereft!
Jeri seizes a chance to get back in Kiths life.
Eventually Jameson figured it out and fired her.
If Trish is arrested, shell go to the Raft.
In theAliascomic, thats where Kilgrave was kept when he was arrested.
Whatever her other shortcomings, Jessica Jones has flawless taste in music.
This episode may feature the most forced baseball metaphor in TV history.
God, the indignity of someone as vain as Dorothy having to get a closed casket funeral.
Nothing in this show has ever been funnier than Jeris …and it was a tax shelter line delivery.
Heres hoping its also on the funeral playlist.
Another episode from Trishs point of view.
Coupling it with that red overcoat also gives her a Little Orphan Annie vibe.
Dorothy wears animal print throughout the show, in all time periods, including some on her collar here.
Interestingly enough,Jessica Joneswas initially commissioned as an ABC-TV crime procedural.
It would have probably been a very different show, but the procedural format still could have worked!
Hey, Costa got a kid!
I guess the adoption went through?
Is Malcolm working his way back to season 1 hair?
Shes mostly been the stable, heroic one holding it together this season.
Luke Cage is back!
Its fitting to have him make one last appearance to send off Jessica.
So yeah, she went full Dorothy, but only the bad parts.
Any idea why she wanted a ticket for as close to Mexico as possible but not actually Mexico?
Was she just going to walk across?
Im honestly glad he wasnt in more of this season.
Plus, this wayDavid Tennantdidnt lie when he said he wouldnt appear in the final season.
