I bought a copy of Detective Comics 30 signed by him just because I liked his art so much, easily one of the most underrated Batman artists.

Indeed! That picture is very clear and shows the new Batsuit a lot better!

  And you see the Batmobile a little bit more in terms of lights. It looks like the lights in Arkham Knight Batmobile.

    Yeah. But what is that huge thing above it? Reminds me of the wings above the Batmobile in Batman Forever xD

  Well, I guess his "exact" anniversary would have been back in May but DC is recognizing July 23rd as Batman Day.

There are Comic-Cons all over the country year round. The biggest and most popular is the San Diego Comic-Con which takes place in July each year.
