Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos reunite for Jessica Jones’ 25th Anniversary with an All-New Alias Series

Posted on by Leave a comment

Twenty five years ago, Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos introduced readers to Jessica Jones, Marvel’s tough-as-nails private investigator with a complicated super hero past, in the groundbreaking Alias series. Now, for their character’s milestone 25th anniversary, the acclaimed creative team reunite to send Jessica on her strangest case yet in Jessica Jones: Alias, a five-issue limited series launching this December.

Jessica Jones: Alias follows the breakout character as she tackles a case unlike any she’s tackled before, one that pulls her far beyond her stomping ground in Hell’s Kitchen…

After a tumultuous tenure as First Lady of New York, Jessica is looking to get back to basics — but Marvel’s premier P.I. rarely gets what she wants! When a simple abduction case drags her to the most obscure and bizarre corners of the Marvel Universe, Jessica finds herself tested like never before!

Renowned original series cover artist David Mack also returns to grace the series with his gorgeous painted artwork. Check out his first cover along with a sneak peek at Gaydos’ interior artwork and preorder Jessica Jones: Alias at your local comic shop today!

The main focus is on a woman with long hair in a dark coat, appearing contemplative and gesturing with her hand.

Brian Michael Bendis and Jacob Edgar’s Satirical Superhero Series returns in The Ones Volume II: The Other Ones

Posted on by

Dark Horse Comics presents The Ones Volume II: The Other Ones, the newest story arc of the explosive comedy comic series from Peabody and Eisner Award winner Brian Michael Bendis and Jacob Edgar. Written by Bendis, illustrated by Edgar, colored by K. J. Díaz, and lettered by Joshua Reed, this four-issue arc introduces a brand-new prophecy for the Chosen Ones.

There came a day, a day unlike any other, when all THE CHOSEN ONES from many different mythologies were ordered by a prophecy of the universe to band together and stand up and defeat the ACTUAL CHOSEN ONE. This was all news to the collective chosen ones, because not only did they find out there were other chosen ones, but that none of them were THE chosen one like they were told. (Unless this is what they were chosen for, which, spoilers: they were.)

Anyway, that first story has been told, and told so well, that THE ONES ARE BACK with an all-new challenge and a brand-new prophecy to fulfill. 

The Ones are back to take on THE OTHER ONES. Seems there are a few other people on Earth who thought or were told THEY were The Ones. And they are not thrilled.

The Ones Volume II: The Other Ones #1 (of 4) will be available in comic shops on December 9, 2026. It is now available for preorder from your local comic shop for $4.99.
