comics recs for Elektra?

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, so we've had comics recs suggestion threads for Daredevil and Punisher (thanks tons to everyone who contributed to those, btw) and now I'd love to know if anyone has suggestions for highlights/best runs/good places to start for getting to know comics Elektra?

Some of them are the same recs you've likely seen for Daredevil - Miller's run on Daredevil basically introduces her and sums her up fairly well.

Miller also worked on an Elektra solo series called Elektra: Assassin in the 80's which is quite satirical and is only 8 issues long that's pretty well regarded (although how you feel about it will likely depend upon your opinion of Miller in general)

There was a new Elektra series launched as part of Marvel Now in 2014 that didn't run for very long but that Mike Del Mundo drew and so the art is stellar. I didn't read it, but I'm planning to get to it since it's available on Marvel Unlimited. I'm assuming that you could pick up with issue #1 there and just jump in since that was Marvel's whole strategy with that relaunch and she hadn't had a solo series in a while as far as I'm aware prior to that point.
