Likewise.
I also think that this series might have garnered more issues if it launched right around the time season 2 of Daredevil did. It came out a year after her Netflix launch and didn't have the same momentum to get new viewers to look for her comic.

[QUOTE=tsaimelemoni;2775273]I've been traveling so haven't created a thread, but I did read today's issue. Kinda meh, actually. I think the idea at the heart of the issue has just been done too much, and usually not well.[/QUOTE]
Yeah this is just a really lame book unfortunately. The art is decent enough though not a patch on Del Mundo. Seeing her in her classic costume again just showed how generic her Netflix inspired look is. The story though is just so bland and uninspired. And whilst it was a striking image, the thought of Elektra breaking down and crying over the bodies in the container is ridiculous considering everything she has seen, done and been through. I can see why they released the tpb of her Nineties series as they seem to be riffing on that iteration of Elektra. Which most people agree is the worst take on her. As a huge fan of Elektra I can honestly say that I'm not bothered about this book ending, which is a massive shame.

I was going to share that as well. Elektra and Sigourney Weavers characters are definitely the primary antagonists. I still haven't finished Luke Cage or Iron Fist so need to get a move on.

So freaking excited for this. They better not make her a silent weapon (Like Jean Grey/Phoenix in The Last Stand...)

Luke Cage is worth finishing but Iron Fist is... It's not easy to finish. They also tie in more Hand stuff that shouldn't have been.

Full Trailer. Snippets of Elektra training with Hand ninjas, and some glimpses of her new costume, which is way more red. Also, she definitely throws Matt throw a glass panel with one hand; looks like she gets at least a minor strength boost!

She looks so good. August is too far away!

Marvel should have held off launching a new solo for her until after Defenders had been released. Twitter is going crazy for her again because of the trailer. They should also have a more engaging premise rather than what they've used so far.

Maybe they are cancelling this one to relaunch with a bigger/more interesting team.

I like the new Elektra series as it puts her in a uniquely familiar situation, but with a modern twist.

I reckon she is going to be appearing in The Defenders comic next. Which I don't want to buy because I hate how Bends writes team books.
