Rob's Room: Elektra: Assassin - (8) Issue Limited Series by Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz (circa 1986)

The Elektra: Assassin eight-issue limited series by Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz (1986) reintroduced the character to the Marvel Universe after her death at Bullseye’s hands in Daredevil #181 (1982).  Due to Elektra: Assassin’s dark subject matter and graphic content, the series had to be published under Marvel’s Epic Comics imprint. Epic titles were sold only in comic book stores and did not have to comply with the Comics Code Authority. Read more about Elektra’s history: Marvel Women of the 80′s: Elektra.

That's a great mini-series. Love the art, love the writing, love the characters.
