The new series sees the titular super-powered private detective as she struggles to continue ignoring her unique traumas, but also seeks to give the “whole self-care” thing a try, seeing a therapist and finding healthier coping mechanisms (notably no business-hour drinking), working towards not wanting to punch things and even taking the occasional case that won’t eat her alive. The latest, a simple missing persons case, fits the bill perfectly until a boy’s body turns up in what appears to be a cut-and-dried OD, sending Jessica diving headlong into an obsessive search for answers.

The 16-episode series is penned by best-selling novelist Lauren Beukes, four-time Hugo Award-finalist Elsa Sjunneson, Zoe Quinn (Vertigo’s Goddess Mode), Vita Ayala (Marvel’s Nebula; Age of X) and Sam Beckbessinger (Team Jay). The audiobook format is set to be narrated by voice actress Fryda Wolff (Justice League Action; Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series).

Marvel previously worked with Serial Box for Marvel’s Thor: Metal Gods and Marvel’s Black Widow: Bad Blood, which are currently available to listen to or read on the platform!
