Daredevil and Elektra Swap Costumes in New Fan Art

In a hilarious new piece of fan art, Daredevil and Elektra swap costumes! Artist @residenteuph unveiled the piece on Twitter, showing Elektra wearing a Daredevil outfit, and Matt Murdoch is wearing Elektra’s outfit. While the piece is largely played for laughs, it also reveals a deeper understanding of both Daredevil and Elektra’s characters.

@residenteuph’s piece is inspired by events that have been unfolding in Chip Zdarsky’s Daredevil. Daredevil accidentally let a person die and was forced to stand trial in his costumed identity. He was found guilty and sentenced to prison. However, Hell’s Kitchen still needed a guardian, so in his absence, Elektra took up the mantle of Daredevil, complete with a new take on the classic costume, injecting it with her own flair. In prison, Daredevil uncovered a conspiracy involving dosing prisoners with drugs to make them more violent, while Elektra has had to contend with Wilson Fisk aka the Kingpin, who attempted to clone an army of Bullseyes. Fisk, the Mayor of New York City, has also began a smear campaign against the city’s heroes, culminating in the current Devil’s Reign event. As Devil’s Reign, and the first act of Zdarsky’s Daredevil comes to an end, artist @residenteuph offers a humorous take on these events, with the two heroes swapping outfits.

Murdoch made only one modification to the outfit, adding a blindfold over
