Jessica Jones-- Marvel/Netflix

^Wild guess: a scientist/doctor that has something to do with whatever the hell gave her her abilities.
 
Does the MCU do that? I seem to recall Smallville liked to dress its characters in their superhero colors.
Occasionally. There's a certain character in 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' (two, actually) who wears a jacket meant to evoke the pattern and colour of the somewhat sillier costume from the comics. Crossbones, Falcon and the Vulture's outfits only have a thematic resemblance to their comic book incarnation.
Hell, even Danny Rand wore clothing that had similar colouring as the classic Iron Fist costume.
 
I've quit at white belt in karate and rarely get into fights, but I fight a thousand times better than her. You'd think someone who gets into a lot of fights by her profession would think of improving her fighting skills.

When you can pick up a car with one hand and headbutt a person though a brick wall, you really don't need to be all that skillful. Plus, she's a P.I.. Most of the people she comes to blows with are pushy clients who don't want to pay and/or drunks (usually while drunk herself.)
 
Yeah, her fighting skills are fine for what she does, leave all the fancy fights to other characters.
 
Whaaa...?!

I don't see how a flashback would be useful and I will be very disappointed if Kilgrave comes back from the dead, so here's hoping his appearance is a lingering presence in her mind. We already saw that in the first season, so there's precedence.

Either way, more David Tennant is always a plus!
 
I don't see how a flashback would be useful

The first season was about Jessica coping with the trauma of what Kilgrave did to her, and obviously that wouldn't simply go away; it would be with her for the rest of her life. PTSD can induce literal flashbacks, as we saw in season 1, when something Jessica saw or heard would trigger a traumatic memory. So it stands to reason that she might still be subject to flashbacks.

Also, we know that Jessica still doesn't know the origin of her powers. It might well be linked to the experiments that created Kilgrave's powers, so the flashback might be part of an episode explaining his connection to her origins.
 
I wouldn't mind flashbacks, we did get a few last season, or if she just imagines him, but I definitely don't want him coming back fro the dead.

Yes, I know that, but I'm thinking specifically what story can be shown from her time with Kilgrave that has happened been shown. I don't want them to just show more of the same trauma that we already seen. I think the lingering presence in her mind would be more affective to show how she's dealing with the trauma than flashbacks.

Also, we know that Jessica still doesn't know the origin of her powers. It might well be linked to the experiments that created Kilgrave's powers, so the flashback might be part of an episode explaining his connection to her origins.
Perhaps, although we know that Kilgrave and Jessica hadn't met before he took her over, so they would have to be careful how to present such flashbacks.
 
David Tennant/Killgrave to return in season 2!

Flashbacks? The little voice in her head that won't go away? Both?

YES! The only really good thing about Season 1 in my opinion, and he's not gone completely. Hopefully he comes back to life (I literally don't care how, I'm desperate enough to see him back I'll take literally any explanation for it) and appears alot. Anything to save the show even a little from its extremely mediocre lead and terrible supporting cast.
