Dark Reign: Elektra #1

In Dark Reign: Elektra #1, a fractured world reeling from Secret Invasion sees Elektra emerge from a mysterious spaceship—her allies replaced by Skrulls—only to be imprisoned by Iron Man. As Norman Osborn consolidates power through HAMMER, brutal experiments begin on her, probing the secrets of her altered state, until Paladin’s assassination attempt turns into a deadly game she still manages to win. Written by Zeb Wells and illustrated by Clay Mann, with inks by Mark Pennington and colors by Matt Hollingsworth, the issue’s stark, intense visuals are matched by Lee Bermejo’s striking cover.
