Jessica Jones has no new power: Marvel still hasn’t confirmed it

Marvel hasn’t confirmed any new Jessica Jones power, and there’s no credible sign that she’s picked up some “gross” new ability. The rumor going around doesn’t hold up. The piece behind it barely gives you any real information, and it doesn’t lead back to a comic, a press release, a verified Marvel update, recent coverage, or even the kind of fan discussion you’d expect if this were real.

Jessica Jones still has the powers she’s long been known for: superhuman strength, enhanced durability, and limited flight. And honestly, her stories have never depended much on flashy power upgrades anyway. They work because of the trauma, the detective angle, and the bite in the character writing.

If something this strange had actually happened in a major Marvel book, it would’ve shown up by now in comic news, official previews, or both. The mix-up may be coming from alternate takes on the character. Marvel’s 2022 series The Variants featured a multiverse Jessica Jones who became Captain America, and a July 2026 What If…? one-shot imagined Jessica Jones as Spider-Girl after getting bitten by the radioactive spider. Neither of those changed the main Jessica Jones in continuity.

So if you keep up with Jessica Jones news, this rumor isn’t really worth buying into, especially since the talk around Daredevil: Born Again has been about something else entirely: powers that fluctuate or seem weaker after childbirth. You can always check Marvel’s official announcements and preview pages yourself. At the moment, there’s nothing there that confirms this.
