Elektra Natchios (UK: , US: ; Greek: Ηλέκτρα Νάτσιος) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Frank Miller, the character first appeared in Daredevil #168 (cover-dated Jan. 1981). Initially created as a supporting character for the superhero Matt Murdock / Daredevil, Elektra has functioned as his villainous adversary, love interest, and eventual heroic ally. Her violent nature and mercenary lifestyle have served as a divisive point of conflict between them, culminating in her becoming the second Daredevil in 2020. One of Frank Miller's best-known creations, she was killed by Bullseye at the conclusion of her first story arc in 1982, though she was later resurrected and became a regularly appearing character, headlining three ongoing series.
