FAN EXPO HQ Partners with DC for Exclusive Batman Adventures #12 Variants at 2022 Shows

PHILADELPHIA, USA, 2022-Apr-02 — /EPR Network/ — FAN EXPO HQ today announced a partnership with DC and superstar artist Stanley “Artgerm” Lau that will provide event attendees throughout 2022 with an exclusive variant cover version of Batman Adventures #12. Premium and VIP ticketholders at 12 FAN EXPO events will receive one of 12 cover variants as “blind bags” in their swag bags, beginning at FAN EXPO Philadelphia on April 8.

The issue includes the super-rare Signed Edition and the ultra-rare Remarked Edition of the comic book, originally released in 1993, and notable for the introduction of Harley Quinn, who graces the cover. FAN EXPO HQ is thrilled to provide this opportunity for attendees to score these iconic editions as part of a level up across its portfolio as the largest comic con producer in the world.

“This collaboration with DC and the legendary Stanley Lau is just another example of how FAN EXPO is taking it to the next level,” said FAN EXPO HQ Vice President, Andrew Moyes. “Every single variant of this comic will be a treasure for collectors, especially those who love ‘Harley Quinn’. We hope the opportunity to secure these special and rare editions amplifies the excitement for our shows in 2022 that much more.”
