Jessica Jones-- Marvel/Netflix

The backdrop in the Daredevil teaser had locations specific to the show-- Josie's Bar, Fogwell's Gym and Nelson and Murdock.
 
Marvel released a tiny comic based on this TV show today.

"Meh?"

Bendis wrote it and Gaydos drew it.

Nothing much happened.

Also, Avengers tower (which never actually showed up on the show) was on the right side of the street, not the left. Which would mean this is a few blocks from where the Daredevil poster is. Makes sense since she's also a resident of Hell's Kitchen, but a little weird they'd pay such close attention to details in a poster and not the show itself.
 
The creatives at the very top have more hands on with this tiny stuff right at the beginning.

They're not beaten down yet.

Oh?

Actually were these teasers made a year ago or a week ago?

Marketing is usually a separate division, these teasers and ads were probably designed and created by people disassociated from the front runners vision, unless Netflix is using a different model to run it's original entertainment division unlike network tv in recent years.

Netflix could unload most of the season tomorrow if they had to, so it's not that are strapped for material to tease us with, trying to get our attention with the first usable footage afraid of an early cancellation like Minority Report is fretting about.

The Mindy Project is on Hulu now, where the #### are my f-bombs?
 
I just read a bio/history on this character over on Io9 --OMG. Does anyone know if it is official that David Tennant is playing this "Purple Man", character?
 
I did note that the hair colour is black like in the show, and not brown like in the comic.

Not that these things are important.

From the set photos it looks like they're not going with the comic book "purple man" look so much as the "purple scarf wearing man". Which, honestly I'm happy to see. Having him wander around the whole time looking like that is a bit conspicuous. I mean sure, he can brain wammy anyone he comes face to face with, but that doesn't help with CCTV and people standing more than a dozen or so feet away.

Perhaps he's wearing flesh coloured make-up and he really is purple skinned all the time or it's just something that happens when he's using his power. Or they're just going to sidestep the whole thing by having his ability manifest as the same purple coloured abstract vapour effect we saw in the title sequence.
 
^Somehow I don't think pheromones work on security cameras. I mean if a purple bloke was walking around New York making everyone do what he wants, Hydra, SHIELD, other Hydra and the ATCU will have to fight over who gets to put him in a box first.

That was a great trailer. I think David Tennant is going to be awesome. He'll probably end up stealing the show, like Kingpin did on Daredevil.
 
And Kristen is looking decidedly less glamorous (though still very attractive) than I've ever seen her. More in line with the character and tone of the show, I imagine.
 
According to Newsarama's liveblog from the NYCC Jessica Jones/Daredevil panel, they are showing the first JJ episode right now. :(
