Some issues are better than others and the background subplots are more interesting than the main plot of some issues. That said, not all of Miller's material is as good. It kaes the overall arc to fully appreciate it. It really does take her return to get you invested, as you see how DD reacts to her amorality and how it affects her relationship to the Kingpin. The first Elektra issue is actually a deliberate homage to the Spirit story Sand Saref. I find that Miller evolves as he goes along and that Roger MacKenzie helps plant those seeds. It also has Heather learning Matt Murdock's secret, as Daredevil. It does much to add a darker edge to DD, which foreshadows some of Miller. I also enjoyed the Gil Kane and Jim Shooter co-plotted run on Daredevil, with Heather Glen's father manipulated by The Purple Man. I read and enjoyed much of Marv Wolfman's run, which still had the swashbuckling daredevil and introduced Bullseye.
