Something from the latest Wizard, about an abandoned continuation of Miller's "Born Again" arc that was supposed to be pencilled by Walter Simonson.

"Ever wonder why Miller and artist Dave Mazzuchelli's Daredevil: Born Again ends with Matt Murdock and his lady love Karen Page walking into the sunset as if to say, "and then they lived happily ever after"? Well, Miller had two more issues planned, and actually wrote Part 1 of his proposed story: Doctor Strange is attacked by a surprisingly powerful demon and sends his cloak and the Eye of Agamotto to find Matt Murdock, aka Daredevil, who falls off a rooftop in a cliffhanger ending. At the time, Marvel became embroiled in a controversy, refusing to return Jack Kirby's original artwork until he signed a special release. As a show of support for Kirby, Miller walked away from Marvel and the proposed Daredevil project with Simonson."
