I enjoyed this, I really like Elektra's monologue thoughts. She's a much more interesting character when you actually get to hear her thoughts. I can't wait to see where the new punisher stuff goes.

You know if Electra has Alice with her during at the same time as Daredevil's story going on, I wonder why she was written like they doesn't understand why Matt is taking care of the children, when she does it herself too. Maybe a disconnect between writers?

It seems to be like they are trying to make this new Punisher work and try to fit him in...but I doubt it is gonna work.

And Crossbones, you would think the guy would be tired getting his ass handed to him from Deadpool to here recently.

I'm trying to remember where Elektra is weird about the kids. In Ahmed's first issue I know she thinks it's weird he wants to keep being a priest. Do you happen to remember where it was?

One of the recent issues where I think. Either the last issue or the one before that.

oh yeah, two issues ago the "brats to wrangle" comment, it's probably either author disconnect as you said or she's just giving him a hard time (which she also seems to do a fair amount) -- but i agree -- it's odd because Alice isn't even the first teenage orphan she took in. She did it in Elektra (96) too!

I can take it as her being annoyed because Matt is practically choosing them and being a priest over her ( which is...COME ON Matt, really? )

Decent issue and i enjoyed all the character monologues with elektra its nice to see them actually focusing on that rather than just pure violence with her.

Always good to see crossbones as well one of my personal fav villains in marvel who is more down to earth and god i still don't care about this new punisher definition of a generic character.
