Thanks for that! Kind of sad, really. Hard to celebrate a fictional creation without celebrating its history. Reduces Batman to just a “property.” Of course, we can choose to do better ourselves. Thanks again for the background insight!

I wouldn't take it as just a corporate cash grab, as they have free and discounted events planned around the day. And at participating comic book shops DC is giving away free comics.
