One of the original (and best) comic book tragedies, Daredevil 181, first printed in 1982, saw the love of Daredevils life, the assassin Elektra, slain at the hands of Bullseye. The image of Elektra impaled on her own sai, is an indelible one in superhero comics. Few creators can sculpt a tragedy better than Frank Miller, whether its the noble cop Hartigan sacrificing his career and reputation for Nancy Callahan in Sin City, or The Joker murdering young couples in a funfair tunnel of love in The Dark Knight Returns. As a result, this issue is one of his very best. Millers world was always one of sadness and sorrow and, somewhat accordingly, his Daredevil was perhaps the saddest and most sorrowful character he ever wrote. Daredevil 181 is Millers great genius given form, function and feeling. With a wonderful story and fantastic, latterly iconic, art from Miller and brilliant inking from the very great Klaus Jansen, this tragedy is considered as an all time classic of the genre and rightly so.
