Jennifer Garner is back ... in black.

Yes, that was an “Alias” reference for those who remember the star’s infamous entrance in the series’ post Super Bowl episode.

After spending months out of the public eye, Garner has returned in a big way this week, first with a candid profile in Vanity Fair and now with a major moment on the Oscars red carpet.

"[Ben's] the most brilliant person in any room, the most charismatic, the most generous," she added. "He’s just a complicated guy. I always say, ‘When his sun shines on you, you feel it.’ But when the sun is shining elsewhere, it’s cold. He can cast quite a shadow."

If this red carpet appearance is any indication, Garner's found her own sun. You know her "person" channeled Cristina Yang before the show like ...
