The fan-favorite event celebrating The Dark Knight, “Batman Day” is back… with a twist!
This year, since it’s her 25th birthday, Harley Quinn is taking over the day!
Batman Day is an annual event celebrating all things Batman from comics to video games and more. This year, the celebration puts Harley Quinn front and center. We’ll have Catwoman on hand, as well as a Harley Quinn or two.
We’ll have free Batman and Harley Quinn masks (one per person, while supplies last) for the first 100 or so people in the door! The Batman masks are in the style of Jim Lee, John Romita Jr., and Andy Kubert, while the Harley Quinn is in the style of Yancy LaBat.
We’ll also have a 15% off on all Batman and Harley Quinn graphic novels and merchandise that day! We’ll have cosplayers on hand for kids to take pictures with, and we’ll have a demo of the Batman Animated Series dice game at 1 PM!
Instead of a single comic, there will be three free offerings this year:
BATMAN DAY 2017 SPECIAL EDITION #1 reprints BATMAN #16, the first chapter of “I Am Bane,” written by Tom King with art by David Finch. This issue’s cover art is by Ryan Sook and features Batman and Harley Quinn in an homage to THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS #1.
