Holy Smokes, Batman—It's National Comic Book Day!

Whether you love Spider-Man, X-Men or Batman, be sure to geek out with your favorite comics on this holiday.

To all of those who believe in Harvey Dent and Gotham City, rejoice.

September 25 is National Comic Book day. This is a day for people of all ages to enjoy, since the first-ever comic book superhero made his first appearance in 1938. While some characters have new looks, and some of their storylines have changed completely, comic enthusiasts can still share their love of their favorite characters, old and new.

This amazingly geeky holiday is a great time for comic fans to honor their superhero, heroine or villain’s best stories.  

You probably have a go-to comic shop. But why not try a new one? Here are several in Brooklyn including our very own Bergen Street Comics just West of Flatbush Avenue.

Bergen Street Comics (470 Bergen St. at Flatbush) 

Galaxy Comics & Collectibles (123 7th Ave.)

St. Marks Comics (148 Montague St.).

Brooklyn Comics and More (493 7th Ave.)

Maverick Comics (210 Parkside Ave.)

National Comic Book day is also a good precursor for the famous New York Comic Con. This year, it will be held during October 11-14 at the Jacob Javits Center, where heroes and villains will walk the streets of Gotham.

From Batman to Archie and the gang, today celebrates everyone’s favorite comic characters.
