In what issue is Ben Urich stabbed through the chest by Elektra? Sounds like a Frank Miller thing. Thanks. _________________ "Why should I be frightened of dying?

Remember, don't get that confused with what happened to Urich's contact in the cinema... that contact was stabbed, Urich had a sai thrown at him. _________________ Kuljit Mithra

yes...it bothered me a bit. that something like a thrown sai at Urich was "erased" out of nowhere..i'm pretty sure...most people remember stuff like that considering Miller had an enormous impact on DD in his arc. |

Yeah, it happened right at the end of #179. I think most people reading it for the first time thought Ben was dead. It was a great surprise seeing him on #180 muttering something about 'a few weeks in hospital' or something. |

Thanks for the issue and the update on it's actually happening versus The Murdock Papers. _________________ "Why should I be frightened of dying?

Reading it right now..*counting Sai Stabs*...Elektra stabs about 15 times in that specific arc. Pretty low...she kills a bit more in that arc. But relatively low for today's standards....damn it's a good, read. Wonder if DD would be still kicking or dead by now if Miller hadn't brought in all his stuff for DD.. |

I remmebre reading that...b yeah, I was really pissed because I thought Ben was dead. Next issue, what do you know, he's walking around looking great! Ben has a pretty tough time what with informants etc getting butchered in Miller's stuff... Manolis and the cinema guy spring to mind first... _________________ Daredevil is the Lord. Wanna know why? Well, he's 100% original, catapulted his Majesty Frank of Miller to fame, pimp smacked the likes of Bullseye, Spier-Man and The Punisher, plus he's a complete nutter... |

As much as that was an actual goof in the Murdock Papers, I read it as Ben having post tramatic stress syndrome. The inability to not actually recall exactly how he got "sticked," to create a belief that it was a different and worse experience.
It never really bothered me that much.
I was only reading Daredevil for less than a year when Miller actually "sticked" Ben. I thought he was a goner for sure. I wasn't attached to this character at the time so it didn't matter what the result was, but that was a long wait. No internet. No previews. Nothing. You actually had to wait it out to see what happened to Ben. I remember those days. Gosh I feel old now.
