I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I haven't actually! I started reading DD a while back, beginning with Smith/Qesada, Waid/Rivera and Waid/Samnee's run, then moved onto something else. But now I've started reading Brubaker's, so I'm a bit all over the place.
Is it worth going so far back as Born again?

As for the defenders - storywise, it's just mediocre, but where ut shines is Marquez' art. The fight between IF and Elektra alone might be just the single fight drawn in comics, in my opinion of course. Without spoiling too much, here's one page from the above mentioned fight

Same here, granted i read much more DC than marvel, Born again i'd say 7/10, i think i went in with too high of an expectation as i'd been seeing/hearing great things about it. It does have its moments but this was the first DD story i've read so i'm not to familiar with the character/ rather or not if its worth going back to read, DD fans say it is. That is some nice art, i like her new costume aswell.

There's definitely plenty of reading material to chose from, alright. I've yet to tackle Bendis' run which is supposed to be stellar. Anyway... I'm stoked to finally see those 2 revealed, hopefully won't be long now!

The new comic book version was based on Elodie's costume. And yes, she is perfect as Elektra!

I like the new design, or at least the new direction. Female super heroes running around in their underwear is so last century, to me, this is Marvel bringing the character's (male and female) into a more enlightened age.

I mean, super hero or not, clothes are useful - who knew?
