Elektra doesn't only hold sentimental value to me, but also she is an amazing superhero. Her first appearance was in Daredevil #168 in January 1981. The first time Elektra was depicted on the big screen was in a film called Daredevil which came out in 2003. Elektra then managed to get a spinoff film called Elektra (what a surprise) in 2005. Her character was first created and illustrated by Frank Miller to be a love interest for another superhero called Daredevil. Although she doesn't have very many super powers the ones Elektra has consist of controlling her nervous system, seeing into the future a short amount of time, and having training in almost every form of martial arts. Twin sais are Elektras favorite weapon but she has also been seen wielding katanas and even ninja stars.
Even if you aren't a huge superhero fan you still probably have some kind of fiction character that you are connected to. Why don't you think of a fictional character that you have sentimental value with and is pretty powerful. Then, go write about them. I bet you'll discover something new.

I like that there are increasing numbers of female superheroes to choose from. Though I do often wish that they had more practical costumes.
I love the invitation to write at the end!
It's cool that more women seem to be getting the limelight as super heroes. Thanks for writing and educating me about Elektra!
Wow so cool keep thinking like this!
I think its awesome that your favorite superhero isn't that well known, its more interesting to find the unfound sometimes.
