FAT JACK’S CELEBRATES BATMAN DAY

FAT JACK’S COMICRYPT CELEBRATES BATMAN DAY ON JULY 23rd

SPECIAL 75TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION AT BOTH LOCATIONS

WITH SPECIALS AND MORE

And there's more at our New Jersey location - from 3 - 8 PM kids under 12 will receive a free Batman head sketch from our special guest - long time super star artist Christopher Ivy.

Christopher Ivy started his career working for John Romita and Don Perlin in the Marvel Bullpen. He's most known for his inking stints at Marvel over Ron Garney on Ghost Rider, Michael Bair and Tom Morgan on Alpha Flight, Dwayne Turner on Cage and over James Fry and Stephen Platt on Marc Spector: Moon Knight. Eventually his inking credits included work for virtually every other comics publisher.

"When DC Entertainment announced Batman day, we knew we had to do something special for our loyal customers, our devoted comic fans who continue to come in and celebrate comics every day of the year.  The least we could do was to have a special sale at both The Philadelphia and New Jersey locations, and being able to bring a notable artist such as Chris Ivy for fans to meet, and to draw one-of-a-kind original art for kids under 12 is a great way to celebrate at our New Jersey Location.  We welcome all fans new and old to celebrate this momentous occasion." states Fat Jack's Mike Ferrero.

Then from 5-8pm Batman* will be taking a break from his busy schedule to join us for a few hours to pose for pictures with fans of all ages.

And to celebrate 1939 - the year that Batman first appeared in Detective Comics #27 we'll be celebrating the 39 theme as both Fat Jack's locations will be offering 39% discounts on Batman related back issues AND 20% discount on batman related graphic novels, again, at both Fat Jack’s locations, making BATMAN DAY a great day to be a comic fan and Fat Jack's THE comic stores to celebrate this great occasion!

Coming on the heels of successful events including appearances from wrestling superstars Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian as well as comic book legend Neal Adams, and popular promotions with Dynamite and IDW Publishing, the BATMAN DAY event is one more way for Fat Jack’s to provide fun and excitement for all our fans.

Fat Jack’s Comicrypt is the Philadelphia area’s premiere comics shop with 38 years of providing the best in comics.

* Batman not the real Batman (but you already knew that, right?).  Our Batman is a great fan who shops at the Fat Jack's New Jersey location and is dressing up for kids and fans to help commemorate this special day.  It's not often that a cultural icon turns 75!
