Aw come on, this is no worse (maybe even slightly better) than the costume they gave Daredevil when he guest-appeared on the The Trial of The Incredible Hulk special (~1990 - go get yours today! http://www.draculina.com/hulk.htm). Which incidentally I _still_ have on tape! :) Somehow I really liked it, but the cheese could stop your heart. :) But anyway, his costume was black and essentially featureless there. Here's a pic (right below the pic with Thor) http://quintadimension.com/televicio/hulk.php. Oh, and the page is in spanish. :)
Yeah, I know...ignored the Sienkiewcz-y goodness and converted her into Daredevil's dom.
I guess they're figuring that leather worked for Xmen. We'll just have to wait and see. They have to miss sometime; at least it wasn't with Xmen or Spiderman (which I never liked as a comic, but it's always good to see comic movies rise above the 60s Batman. ^_~)
I don't know what's more disappointing: a) The comic to screen conversion or b) The fact that I just realized Electra Assasin was more than just a really beautiful 6 issue story
They really need to declare Elektra a National Treasure, put Frank Miller in charge of it[1], and tell everyone else to sit down and shut up. After all, they made Arnold the Presidential Secretary In Charge of Gym Class, or whatever.
[1] Miller has delivered enough quality over the years--especially WRT Elektra--that I'm willing to forgive him for DK2.
So actually why does she remind me of Mileena from the Mortal Kombat games?
Yeah, it looks reaaalllyyy bad. Worse than Birds of Prey kind of bad.
Who did you have in mind for that character? I haven't been reading DD long enough to see a storyline with her in it.
while I can appreciate fine ass when I see it, I still have to say, "Ugh".
Would it have killed them to at least make the costume red?
dude, black IS the new red.

Would you believe http://quintadimension.com/televicio/hulk.php . (sorry, the period was too close).
at least he's still blind
Maybe they'll have Daredevil get laser eye surgery in the spinoff?
I just got Daredevil 181 in the mail with Bullseye and the death of Electra!
What next -- a bleach-blond Wolverine?

Amen.
Though her cameo in Bendis's latest Daredevil run was decent.
That's just wrong.
