    let's just say " to each their own" and leave it at that
    Oh, BTW, nothing against your opinion, my friend. My ire and rants are all directed at Patsy...I hated her as much as I hated/hate Jar Jar Binks. So please forgive me my friend...my wrath is directed at her, and only her. Not remotely you...but apologies if you took issue with my rants...

      I just hate her fictional Patsy character...

        What happened? Did they get a new worse writing team, director and producer? Was there just nothing left to tell? I mean she is a more recent character who is definitely not an A lister, so maybe they just didn't have material to work with.
        What show do you like?? You really are down on almost all of them but you continue to watch them?

        And how many people actually KNOW or follow the source material? Jessica's mother was in the comics...And Patsy was a more modern take on the character instead of the clean cut "good Girl" of the 1940's...If people wanted that character that wouldn't fly today...

        At least we are getting Hellcat that's a plus...

          Not sure what gave you the impression I don't like the Netflix marvel series.

          I really liked DD season 1 and JJ season 1. I liked Luke Cage a lot. I liked Iron Fist, Defenders, and DD season 2.
          The only ones I didn't like were Punisher and JJ season 2.

          And of the lot - I only know their pre-2000 comic stories. So that pretty much leaves Jessica out.

            it's all good. (as much as Jar Jar??? wow, you must realllllllllly hate her!)
            I actually thought the 2nd link in your reply was pretty interesting.
            Patsy went off the rails and it was fun to watch. I liked how intense and angry she got. the mother character was kinda creepy so I couldn't really get behind her but the actress who played her was good. it also seemed they got rid of Simpson too quickly.
            I never even heard of JJ until netflix announced her show. my comic book knowledge pretty much ends where I stopped buying comics in 1979 or so.
            so is this Hellcat character Patsy?

              Yup...The Character Patsy needs to 'Go-Away' or be entirely re-written...the words: cliche & pathetic come to mind.

                  Hellcat first appeared in the 40's. Jessica Jones not until 2001.
                  Hellcat was never an A lister -or B lister. More of an also ran character. she was briefly in the defenders, so her inclusion in the netflix verse makes sense. too bad they mad the alter ego soooo annoying.

                      IIRC, the Cat (an attempt at a feminist heroine) appeared first in a short-lived title and later morphed into Tigra. Patsy was originally a romance comics character and was modernized into Hellcat. She was indeed a Defender and married to Daimon Hellstrom, the Son of Satan.

                        ahh ok, now the Cat looks familiar, I never would've made the connection to Hellcat though. Tigra I know from a wwbn giant size or something.
                        and to be honest, when I was really little I read avengers, jla, bats, supes, cap, spidey... then as I got older it was mostly just spidey.
                        until the "giving away all my comics to an old friend because I thought I was too old for them" tragedy of 1980

                          That other comic that got posted was "The Cat" Not Hellcat the Cat is the one that became Tigra...

                            I never read Hellcat...but knew going in that she was going to morph into that character.

                            I kinda get what you say about Patsy. Although she was annoying, I do admit she was a complexed character...not a one note predictable role, dancing between good and bad...so I’ll give you props for that observation...
