Some reviewers have been critical of the arcs pacing, especially with the somewhat metaphysical detour of this issue and the last. The action is frequently broken up with memories and flashbacks, often a mess made gnarled by Bloody Lips cannibalism of thoughts and experiences, and this issue repeats that pattern. However, given the nature of Elektras mental and emotional history, this contrast between internal reflection and external action works. The story itself haslittle novelty but the way its told, with the dual narrative of Elektra and Bloody Lips coming to a violent close, makes for another entertaining read. Read Full Review

Elektra has become a fine example of why comics are a legitimate art-form. This issue features some of the strongest work by the creative team to date and now they just need to deliver the goods. For those that want a great book that helps diversify the landscape of comics, this is a book for you, or if you dont care about that, pick it up for the slobber-inducing artwork! Read Full Review

Elektra #4 is another solid issue for the series. The story doesn't advance too much, but the handling of the characters and their backstories is able to overcome that. Combined with some of the best artwork in the business, Elektra continues to utterly shine. A must read. Read Full Review

Given the series' more action oriented elements, the opening pages of Elektra #4 offer a refreshing change of pace, delving not only into the mind of our scarlet assassin but her gluttonous assailant as well. Read Full Review

Pure action from beginning to end, but from it you can get some valuable insights into our antiheroine. Read Full Review

Once again, Elektra is a fantastic book. It is a wonder how Del Mundo can maintain this quality on a monthly basis, but while it exists, people would do well to be following this series. For the time being, those who are should cherish it. Read Full Review

Like "Red She-Hulk," which felt like it wanted to be called "Machine Man," Elektra still feels like it wants to be called "Bloody Lips," and that's maybe a book I would buy, but for an Elektra solo title, Blackman and Del Mundo's "Elektra" is not quite getting it done. Despite incredible art by Mike Del Mundo, "Elektra" continues the struggle to find its voice. Read Full Review

Del Mundo's artwork is by far the high point of the series. I really hope that the story pans out to compliment it. It's absolutely gorgeous and the somewhat more abstract approach is nice to see in a series about a deadly assassin, where one would expect dark and gritty art. It also does wonders in giving Elektra a little bit more of a character as some of her more painful expressions suddenly become a lot more tender. Add this to the aforementioned beginning panels and Elektra is getting a lot more fleshed out as a character, which is wonderful to see. Read Full Review

The final page will make the wait for the next issue an arduous one...
