I have noticed that a few comic titles are also referred to as Director's Cut like DC's Final Crisis 1: Director's Cut. I know what a Director's Cut is in the context of film, as discussed here on our sister site.

But what is the meaning of Director's Cut in the context of comics?

It does apply to comics, although comics really have no direct correlation to a film director.

The term is applied to any comic that is a reprint of any particular issue with added commentary by the writer or editor, script pages or production related artwork.

Quote from Comicvine:

"Director's Cut comics are special release issues with added content that often includes: writer's commentary, editorials, background information and additional artwork."
