Willpower amongst other things, I believe you can actually hold your breath before encountering him to avoid the pheromones.
Those with strong wills can over come it. And there are few stronger than Daredevil and Spiderman

Point taken, but the problem is Alias is annoying because the series isn't on Comixology.
That's from issue #24. Here's the Omnibus, if you want to pay $70 to find out this specific bit of her origin.
They really need to get on top of keeping shit in print. Even if it is print on demand.

Holy fuck. That's so damn dark, I didn't know Marvel comics went like this.
yup, same here. He would look so outrageously awesome, don't miss the chance Marvel
It gets darker, goddamn shame what they did to Spider Woman
Sucks that won't likely be on the show.

Will the story be about Jessica gaining the will to resist him when he resurfaces?

Why does he wear the mask!?
Why won't it?

I sincerely hope they don't do the Spider-woman plotline now that Marvel have their Sony deal in place. Daredevil went to some dark places with its gore, but Jessica Jones with that plot line....
Just the image of Spider-woman with her flesh being extracted and used as a drug makes me shudder. I'd hate to see that being put on film.

Agreed. Marvel is terrible about keeping things in print. At least DC can keep whole runs of things or major stories in print and make them easy to find. It seems the only Marvel thing that sticks in print is Civil War. It is so hard recommending stuff to customers at work when you can't get ahold of shit, or it is only in giant omnibus editions that people don't want to pay for.
You expect the Avengers to cameo on a Netflix show?

Oh, that bit! I thought you meant the Purple Man sexual abuse stuff.
Turned her into a drug addicted drug machine( there is a process in the MU where you can make drugs from Superhumans).
Wait, when was this?
Alias 19 through 21
Shit, I need to reread Alias, it's been A WHILE since I read it.

Which is really weird, because Jessica Jones literally began as Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew) with the serial numbers filed off.

Shame because Drew is pretty shitty, like Carol shitty. Alias would have been a good come up for her.

The thing that happens to Spider-Woman
is also in the Bendis Daredevil comics. The Owl lets a doctor do "dna scrapes" on him and they sell it on the street as a new high profile drug. One pusher is seen lying to a buyer "this shit came from Spider-Man!" lol
Marvel
could never

With some luck he'll have a subtle purple tone through CGI either on his skin or eyes when he uses his powers.
Also, not to be that guy, but dude's hung.

At least you can talk. Who are you?
The dots are mostly for motion-tracking, to be able to replicate human face movements on a CGI face. For instance, Davy Jones in Pirates of the Caribbean. Adding a digital color should be possible without them. On the other hand, they just painted Michael Rooker blue and Zoe Saldana green in Guardians of the Galaxy.

That's mainly for mo-cap, but this could simply be a picture taken between sets or something. He probably doesn't want to spend hours in make-up and walk around purple all day. They might still do it in other scenes, but I can't see The Purple Man walking around public, well, purple haha.

I think you only need dots if you're going to change the face into something else, but a colorization wouldn't need them.
They'd have to remove the dots in that case.

I think others have said it, but I'm fine if he isn't actually purple. Wilson Fisk was perfect in DD and wasn't cartoonishly gigantic.

Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
Why would they need dots to recolour his skin? The dots are used when something not originally in the scene needs to be added and precisely follow another object or the camera (although you can use almost any point of reference for simple camera tracking). Like if they were adding a mask to his face or something they would need to be able to recreate the shape of his face in 3D in the computer and the dots provide the 3D tracking information from what is a 2D image.
I like the idea that it be subtle. Maybe a slight color change when his power is in use.

Honestly, I have never read Jessica Jones or any of these other street-level superheroes, but four episodes into Daredevil and I'm now really hyped for all of these other Netflix series. Also, I'm really intrigued to see David Tennant as a villain. I really like him as an actor and I think he could be brilliant as an antagonist.
Has Iron Fist been cast yet?

There's no 100% official confirmation but the way it's all worded makes it seem so.

Iron Fist will be the last one.

Yeah. I think originally Iron Fist was gonna come before Luke Cage, but when the JJ crew decided they wanted Luke, Marvel switched things around so they could hype his show coming right off his role with Jessica Jones.
