It's September, which means DC's annual "Batman Day" event is right around the corner. Today DC Entertainment revealed its plans for this year's event, which will be held on Saturday, September 17.
All retailers participating in this year's Batman Day will be offering free copies of Batman #1 (the current DC Rebirth series). Participating retailers will include Pottery Barn Kids, Books-A-Million, Barnes & Noble and Six Flags theme parks, as well as various comic shops, schools and libraries.
