ComicBook.com has an interview with editor Mark Paniccia, where he talks about this new "Daredevil line" at Marvel.

They're all very distinct. With each one of these, the first arc is to introduce the character to new readers and catch regular readers up with where the characters have been. Once that’s been established you’ll start to see more connective tissue. They are also stories that I think long time readers are going to love because so true to the concept of each one of these characters. These are meant to be the kind of stories that a casual fan will really enjoy and someone will be able to go, "Hey, you should check out the Elektra series." You can jump right in. It's just a really good Elektra story and it introduces her as what this core character. Every story puts all of the characters in a situation where you understand who and what they are.
