May 20, 2026I don’t think I can really praise this run enough. It’s so far remained consistently stellar and this installment doesn’t disappoint. I can easily say that you can read all three of these first issues and not at all feel like you’re missing a beat. The creative team is putting in the work and it shows! Read Full Review

May 20, 2026Jones’ latest case takes a drastic turn as clues start coming into focus. Humphries’ writing challenges Jones at a high level. Borges leans into his strengths of brooding action to elevate certain scenes even higher than expected. This is definitely not your typical Jessica Jones story by any means. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Theron Couch
May 20, 2026Alias Red Band #3 continues the series’ strange unbalanced nature. The investigation proceeds forward efficiently enough, but Jessica and Mary are a strange combination that don’t feel at home in the same story. The flash forward continues to be more of an interruption to pacing than anything else. And the story takes a wild turn in the issue’s final pages. The issue works well enough, but the series needs to settle down a bit. Read Full Review

Didn't like this as much as the first two issues, though I did like it overall. This time around, it felt like Humphries was trying just a little too hard to be funny by spamming swear/curse words. For me, if it's overly done, it gets a little cringey. This wasn't really cringe for me, in this instance, but I could see it starting to get to that point. However, I still thought the story was intriguing and I'm still invested enough to continue and see where things go.
