‘Jessica Jones’ Creator Hints At A Post-Kilgrave Antagonist In Season 2

Warning: Spoilers for the Season 1 finale of Netflix’s “Jessica Jones” ahead.

Arguably the most fearsome bad guy in the Marvel universe, David Tennant’s Kilgrave in “Jessica Jones” wasn’t plotting to overthrow the democratic order of some metropolis by force, shoot laser beams at moon or any such storybook villainy. His evil stemmed from a less obvious power: Kilgrave could compel people to do exactly as he said simply by saying it, a type of mind control that made for a darkly entertaining yet deeply unsettling antagonist.
