Making ends meet

If Daredevil took on the Kingpin in order to make a better city, Jessica Jones is all about something else. She hasn't got any trouble with dealing with the scum of the city on a daily basis "“ she might as well be one. Instead, she becomes a hero out of necessity. What does that mean? The same showrunner explains: "Jessica is about paying rent, getting the next client. She's dealing with a fairly dark past. She's trying to get through the day. She's not really trying to save the city, she's trying to save her apartment. At her core, she wants to do something good. She wants to contribute to the world. But there are a lot of personality issues for her that can get in the way."

So, in a way, she is a gun for hire. She might as well be an evildoer, if the job is well paid and requires it. Or isn't it this way?
