By the end of her first ongoing however, Jessica is actually seemingly killed off for good… until she isn’t, because superhero comics. Her physical form seemingly killed during a battle with her nemesis Morgan LeFay in the astral plane, and Jessica’s spirit requests the sorceror Magnus to cast a spell that removes memory of her from the world, but it doesn’t quite work. After Tigra and The Shroud find her physical body, they seek help from Doctor Strange and the Avengers to free Jessica’s spirit and stop Morgan from hijacking her physical form. Doing so resurrects Jessica, but at the cost of her powers, some of which start slowly returning to her over time as she leaves superheroics behind to become a private investigator.
