Even after 75 years in the making, Batman never gets old. To commemorate the 75th anniversary of one of our favorite superheroes, DC Entertainment is planning an epic celebration that will take place during this year’s WonderCon. These plans include several panels and premieres and, to add to the hype, there will also be exclusives that are so secret, only those attending WonderCon will know. Shhh!

One special release that can be announced to the world is the debut of the Batman and Son premiere, with a look behind the first ever animation of Damian Wayne. What?!  The animated feature adapts Grant Morrison’s Detective Comics arc, which introduced Damian as well as weaponized ninja Man-bats. Yes, ninja Man-bats. The premiere for this little beauty will be Friday at 6pm. The weekend has even more planned, including a special showing of Teen Titans Go!

WonderCon 2014 takes place April 18-20 in Anaheim. DC’s complete schedule includes the following:

Panels/Premieres:

  • A special screening of an all-new episode of Teen Titans GO! at 2 PM Friday, with a panel featuring the show’s producers and members of the voice cast.
