Elektra: The mesmerising story of Troy from the three women

While in Pleasant Hill, Elektra fell in love with another inmate, the Absorbing Man, who had been turned into an ice cream vendor named Harold.

Infuriated by having his life rewritten, Absorbing Man began to wreak havoc together with fellow inmate Whirlwind. When Murdock, Rand, Jones, and Luke Cage join forces to form the Defenders and combat the Hand, Elektra is sent to attack them, but is defeated by Rand.
