So what did everyone think of this mini-series?

I thought the first 4 issues were very good, but the fifth and final issue was a little bit of a letdown. It seemed somewhat rushed and I was looking for a different ending. Overall though, I thought it was a good series.

Now, I just hope Diggle works her into DD's book. It would be nice to see her become one of Matt's major supporting characters.

I also felt the ending was a little rushed. When I got it home and realized it was the 5th and final issue I started digging through books thinking I had somehow missed an issue.

Not a bad story overall though. The best part of the book was more Clay Mann pencils. Marvel needs to find a regular monthly for this guy (preferably something I would actually want to pick up)!

Totally agree! Clay Mann's art is really good and his style fit the book perfectly. I'd love to see an ongoing Elektra series with him as the artist or maybe even fill in on some DD issues.

Before Dark Reign: Elektra, Mann penciled the first issue of Brubaker's 'Lady Bullseye' arc on DD. I'm not real familiar with anything else he's worked on - although I want to say that he may have had some flashback pages in one of the Immortal Iron Fist issues?

Yeah, I think he draws street level characters/stories very well

I was dissapointed in this comic.Marvel needs to give her an on-going even if they have to cancel something else.They have 0 female street level element.Either that or bring Silver Sable back.
