What If (Elektra had lived)? #35 - Steve Ditko, Frank Miller art

What If #35

What If (Elektra had lived)? v1 #35, 1981 - This alternate Daredevil story draws from events prior to and included in Daredevil #181. Frank Miller swipes his own layouts from the landmark issue, augmenting his newer artwork. Interestingly, Terry Austin's inking gives the scenes a different look from Klaus Janson's originals. Some spontaneity is lost, but compensated by more intricate detail. As a whole, this story is comparable to Miller's best work on Daredevil. A second feature reveals the origin of Tigra the Were-woman. Steve Ditko's illustrations are adequate, drawn in his usual eclectic style. Other artists in this copper age comic include Greg LaRocque and Mike Esposito. This is 1 of 1 What If issues by Ditko and 3 of 3 What If issues by Miller.
