were originally at the dimension of 11 x 17 inches (including the editorial notes and bleed lines seen on the papers) and were all colored. Artist's Edition is designed to print exactly the same dimension and in black and white palette to show the details of pasteovers, zip-a-tone technique, and blue pencils. Mazzucchelli personally supplied all of the artworks for scanning and supervised the process of the development for approval. The 250 copies limited edition () was exclusively available only for pre-ordering; this version includes a colorful slipcase, a variant design of the front cover, and Mazzucchelli's personal signature printed in an interior page. Mazzucchelli appeared at the Midtown Comics signing event on June 28, 2012. The signing was preceded by a discussion with fellow creator Chip Kidd and a Q&A session with fans in attendance. The trade paperback known as Artisan Edition () was published on 2019. This version, however, is scaled down to the standard size of a graphic novel despite retaining the same content as the regular version. Reception In regard to the rise of Daredevil comic popularity during Frank Miller's run in the 1980s, Born Again is considered one of, if not the best storyline within the Daredevil mythos, with praise for Miller's and Mazzucchelli's artwork, storyline and religious narrative mirroring Matt Murdock's arc from fall and rise. Fans and critics see Born Again to be an influential period during the start of the Modern Age of Comic Books. Sequel The "Last Rites" story arc in Daredevil #297–300, though written and drawn by an entirely different set of creators (except for colorist Christie Scheele), is to an extent a thematic sequel to "Born Again". The plot of "Last Rites" is centered on Daredevil systematically destroying the Kingpin's reputation and worldly possessions, much as the Kingpin did to him in "Born Again". In an explicit acknowledgement of this parallel, a deranged Kingpin mutters "born again..." in the final installment. The story also sees Murdock finally unraveling the frame job from "Born Again", winning back his attorney's license. In an ongoing subplot of "Born Again", the Kingpin hires Foggy Nelson for one of his firms. When writer Frank Miller left the series, this plot thread was temporarily abandoned, before finally being resolved in Daredevil #248–256. In other media Director Mark Steven Johnson had expressed interest in directing a sequel to the 2003 Daredevil film with the "Born Again"
