Marvel Launches Digital Originals with JESSICA JONES

New York, NY—July 18, 2018— Innovative. Original. Double-Sized.  The Marvel Digital Originals are here and launching this exciting new line of digital comics is JESSICA JONES #1, on-sale now from writer Kelly Thompson with art from Mattia de Iulis and covers by Martin Simmonds.

Jessica Jones was once the costumed super hero known as Jewel, but now she’s a private investigator at her own firm, Alias Investigations. With the Purple Man gone, her relationship with her husband, Luke Cage, and their daughter, Danielle, is better than ever.  But in JESSICA JONES #1, her past comes knocking, and when a woman whose case she fumbled winds up dead on her office floor, Jessica goes from private investigator to prime suspect. Can she find the real killer and clear her name?

“Here at Marvel, we could not be more excited for the Marvel Digital Originals,” says Editor-in-Chief C.B. Cebulski.  “It’s an innovative new format, perfect for new readers who can come in and get double-sized digital comics.  It’s always important for us to strike a balance between new readers and the old school, hardcore fans.  And Marvel Digital Originals are perfect for that because not only do they tell stories in continuity with the classic characters, they’re also the perfect gateway for new readers to discover comic shops around the country.”

“With the Marvel Digital Originals, we have an unbelievable slate of characters TORN from your small screen, come to life on the comic book page with these crazy amazing stories that you’re never going to forget,” says Executive Editor Nick Lowe.

Cloak and Dagger will also be joining the Marvel Digital Originals line, with CLOAK AND DAGGER (MARVEL DIGITAL ORIGINAL) #1 going on-sale today, containing the first two chapters of “Shades of Gray” from writer Dennis Hopeless and artist David Messina with covers from Mahmud Asrar.
