Today in Comics History, October 7: Happy birthday, Batman...?

Born on this day: Batman! Well, kinda. Actually, his canon birthday is on February 19.


from Super DC Calendar 1976 (DC, 1975)
However, this recent digital story lists his birthday as today, October 7.

So what's the experts' opinion on when Batman's birthday is? Well, I (little stuffed expert) choose to believe that this is a non-canon story and will still contrinues to celebrate on February 19. Altho' it's just possible that this is a new post-Rebirth canon birthday. Unless, of course, Batman is lying to J'onn. Which, consider the big green guy is a telepath, may not be the smartest thing to do.

Either, or. Happy batday, Birthman!
