Date: 2015-11-24 02:26 am (UTC)It has a fantastic noir detective feel, the look of it is very informed by David Mack who did the (gorgeous, gorgeous) covers for the comics. Here are the opening credits
That's why I'm watching it - I loved the comics and I'm delighted that it's made a beautiful and satisfying transition to TV. But it's dark, I'd say it's pretty much triggery for anyone dealing with PTSD or sexual assault. Not as bone-crunching as Daredevil, but definitely dealing with some dark storylines. David Tennant plays the villain and he's basically amazing and horrifying. (As he should be - this villain is terrifying.)
Krysten Ritter is a fantastic Jessica - I wouldn't have picked her, she looks nothing like my headcanon Jessica, but wow, she is amazing. Oh, wow - she just lifted Jessica off the page and made me love her more.
