It’s similar to the reaction to “Daredevil,” which premiered on Netflix earlier this year, but “Jessica Jones” goes even further to some rather disturbing territory, not to mention more sex scenes than ever seen in a Marvel production thus far. Jeph Loeb Says There’s…

The man who writes Spider-Man talks Marvel’s Cinematic Universe

Walt

A chat with comics writer Dan Slott about Spider-Man from the Verge: What were your thoughts around Spider-Man finally coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe?: I was completely side-swiped.
