Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Elektra Natchios is a Marvel Comics anti-hero created by Frank Miller. Making her debut in Daredevil #168 (January, 1981) as Matt Murdock's college love-interest-turned-assassin, Elektra is one of Daredevil's most dangerous, unpredictable enemies. Originally a college student at New York's Columbia University with her boyfriend, Matt Murdock, the Greek-born Elektra left for Japan after the accidental death of her father. Encountering Stick, leader of the secret martial arts organization known as the Chaste, Elektra's fighting skills were honed to peak human levels. Unfortunately, the hate in her heart got her expelled from the Chaste, so Elektra joined their rivals, the Hand. Corrupted by the Hand, Elektra became the organization's top assassin until breaking free from their control and returning to New York.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })After the Man Without Fear saves her from mobster Eric Slaughter and his hit-men, Elektra learns Daredevil's secret identity and tries to rekindle their relationship, only to be rejected because of her killing ways. Together, the former lovers battle and defeat the Hand after the organization attempts to kill members of the Chaste. After Elektra became The Kingpin's chief assassin, Elektra and Daredevil battle continuously until she was ordered to kill Franklin "Foggy" Nelson, Matt Murdock's best friend. Unable to kill Foggy, who recognized her as "Matt's girl", Elektra was forced to battle Bullseye, the Kingpin's former chief assassin. Elektra fought hard but was defeated by Bullseye after he impaled her on her own sai. Mortally wounded, Elektra crawled to Matt's doorstep and died in his arms. Resurrected thanks to Daredevil and Stone, an associate of Stick, Elektra traveled the world as a freelance assassin/bounty hunter. After aiding S.H.I.E.L.D., Wolverine and her former lover Daredevil, Elektra was replaced by a Skrull agent named Siri prior to the Secret Invasion event. Once freed, she became more involved in the superhero community and began walking a careful line as an Anti-Hero — not evil, not good, just herself. She is currently with the Thunderbolts.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Jennifer Garner played the character in the 2003 Daredevil and her 2005 spinoff, Elektra. Most recently, in the Netflix adaptation of Daredevil (2015) and The Defenders (2017), she has been portrayed by Élodie Yung.

Contract on the Hitman: Three businessmen who once hired Elektra had this as official policy. They would routinely "retire" hitmen after they performed three jobs, using their replacements to do the deed. One of the three was smart enough to avoid trying this with Elektra.

Series Continuity Error: Two contradictory accounts of her family history have been given. In Elektra: Root of Evil #1-4 (1995), her mother, Christina, is killed by assassins hired by Orestez, while in Elektra Volume 2 #18 (1998), she is killed by an insurrectionist during the Greek Civil War. In both accounts, she gives premature birth to Elektra just before dying. | |

Race Lift: Who do you cast to play the olive-skinned, raven-haired, Greek-born assassin? Apparently the American-born, light-skinned, brunette Jennifer Garner... The Darker and Edgier Punisher Max series makes Elektra Japanese, instead of a white woman who dresses up in ninja gear. In the Daredevil (2015) live-action series, she's played by French-Cambodian actress Élodie Yung. To be fair though, she can pass as Greek based on facial features. | |

Breakout Character | |
| Elektra (Comic Book) / int_da0eeab5 | comment |
Breakout Character: Elektra's popularity, which stretched beyond the traditional male population and drew a large female readership, would eventually ensure her own miniseries and in 1986 she would star in Elektra: Assassin. She was supposed to stay dead after her death in Daredevil, but she was resurrected because of her popularity and frequently used since, despite Marvel's initial promise to Frank Miller that the character would not be used in any other publication. | |
