    How will DC celebrate Batman's 75th Anniversary?!?! (Batman's 75th anniversary is next year in 2014)

    We already know Batman is in all 3 DCUAOM slated for 2014, 2 of them focusing on Batman:

    Justice League: War, Son of Batman, and Batman: Assault on Arkham.

    We also know Batman will be in theaters in February in The Lego Movie!

    How else do you think DC will celebrate Batman's 75th birthday?!?! Free comic book day issue? Another Arkham game? Another comic series in the Batman line?!?!

    @batshrine: As I understand it, when they thought it was a separate Batman/Superman movie it was set to release 2015, because Man of Steel 2 has been set to release 2014. Now that they're both the same film, I think they're sticking to the 2014 date previously mentioned.

    I might be wrong, though.

    @rulerofthisuniverse: You are right that instead of doing a Man of Steel sequel they are doing a Batman/Superman movie. But with that announcement they announced it to be 2015, then Flash 2016, and JL 2017

    I vote that to celebrate Batman's 75th birthday next year, all Bat-Viners will pledge their allegiance by changing their avatar to a Bat-logo for an entire month.

    It would be confusing as hell, but awesome!

    @batshrine: No, Man of Steel 2 will feature Batman. It won't be a Batman/Superman movie, though. And those dates are all rumors made before the official announcement, the only date that we know is Man of Steel 2 (2014) unless they changed that (which we don't know yet).

    I honestly feel like it will come out then. Cause if they already have Kevin Conroy recorded for that, they must have developed much more by now and will be ready to release it next year

    @flameboy298: The Flash movie was confirmed, after Snyder left the stage he told press about plans for flash and justice league movie. He just forgot to say it on stage cause well, you can't blame him he was thinking about Batman ;)

    @batshrine: @jayc1324: Rocksteady will definitely want to wait 6-months to a year after Origins is released before they come out with a new Arkham game. Looks like another star my have aligned...

    I'd like to see a permanent replacement for Robin in the Batman and Robin book.

    Im pretty sure is going to be a batman/superman movie otherwise they wouldn't have changed the logo. Batman is going to be a main character.

    On topic. I think that they should just add a new bat book to replace batman inc.

    DC will give a Bat Signal to every city or town! Every die hard Batman fan gets their very own Bat Cave, Batmobile, and Alfred! DC will buy every television station and play the best of Batman for a whole month! They'll take over the radio stations and at random parts of the day a clownish voice talks about a new rich man he'll murder just like in the Jokers first appearance in Batman No. 1! Batman radio serials will play for a month! The newspapers will reprint their comic strips! DC will release the Adam West show on DVD! They officially change to the name of "Batman and Robin" to "Clooney and O'Donell"! The movie serials will play every day and all loyal Bat fans who pay each day to see them each day in the theater will be rewarded a Batmite replica lifesize statue!
