They got Elektra wrong


I love this show but I disliked Season 2. Elektra here came across as a catwoman ripoff. I always like Elektra's story how she starts off an assaissin and when she dies and comes back shes on a path of redemption. Here they made it seem like she was always evil and was praying on Matt when they were in college which wasn't the case in the comics,their love there was real and it was her father's death that sent her over the edge. They took her humanity away from her,in the Wolverine comics we see her more Humane side. Elektra here just seems like shes too unstable and enjoys killing from the get go if there was more build up and we were seeing Assasin and Elektra Lives i might be more forgiving.Shes dead as of Season 3. I know these characters in the mcu's fate is uncertain at the moment,but Elektra herself needs a soft reboot IMO

I agree. I prefer Jennifer Garner's Elektra
