I just found out from DCComics.com today that yesterday marked the 75th anniversary of the release of Detective Comics Vol. 1 No. 27 (cover date: May 1939), the comic book issue that marked the first appearance of one of the most popular superheroes to appear in U.S. comics, and by extension, all media (incl. animation and video games). Yes, we are talking about Batman, one of DC Comics' flagship super-heroes. He's been appearing in comics every month nonstop for 75 years and still enjoyed by many readers worldwide today with many more awesome years to come.
You should check out Batman75.com to find out what DC Comics and Warner Bros. have planned to celebrate Batman's 75th anniversary. As for me, I'm in the process of brainstorming what to do to next to for celebrating Batman's 75 years after reading Detective Comics Vol. 2 No. 27-29, and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing the pilot for the upcoming James Gordon-centric cop show Gotham.
