What comic book character might be on ABC’s 2011 fall plate?  It looks like Marvel Comics’ AKA Jessica Jones, created in 2001 by Brian Michael Bendis, is heading to the small screen. Melissa Rosenberg (Twilight) will be adapting the superheroine’s story under the watchful eye of Brian Michael Bendis who signed on as a consultant for the project.

Here’s what Variety says of AKA Jessica Jones:

“Part of Marvel’s Max line of more mature comicbook titles, the character is a superhero (“Jewel”) who winds up with post-traumatic stress disorder and gets out of that biz.

Jessica, now in her early 30s, decides to keep far away from others gifted with superpowers and to open her own detective agency. But once she settles down, she realizes she still has a drive to help people — and finds herself assisting other superheroes.”

Jeph Loeb, Joe Queseda, Alan Fine, Howard Klein, and Rosenberg are executive producers on the series.
