Improbable Previews: Elektra Runs From "Tumultuous Past" In Elektra #1
Every so often, comic book publishers send out previews of upcoming comics without any of the lettering finished. The result, while pretty to look at, leaves readers wondering just what the hell is going on in those pages. Well, wonder no more.
Here at Bleeding Cool, we have combined decades of experience in reading comic books, so we can tell what's happening, even without the words. Using that knowledge, we've lettered these previews ourselves, using our best guess at what the dialog should actually be. We can't guarantee 100% accuracy- in fact, our accuracy may be much lower than that – but we can guarantee that it's better than looking at a bunch of unfinished pages.
In this issue of Improbable Previews, we look at the first issue of the new Elektra series by Matt Owens and Juan Cabal. The series, according to the official solicit, sees Elektra move to Las Vegas, hoping to escape her "tumultuous past," which she relives in every series since the 1980s. Will she be successful? Read on to find out what we think, and check out the book when it hits stores on February 22.
