DC Comics asks stores to destroy 'All-Star Batman... No. 10'



From usatoday, Call him the Caped Cuss-ader, says today's New York Post, because this Batman is pretty foul-mouthed. And that's why DC Comics is asking stores around the country to destroy all copies of a new Batman comic book: a printing error left in a slew of obscenities.

S- and F-words - and more - were supposed to have been blacked out of All-Star Batman & Robin the Boy Wonder No. 10, but they're clearly legible. But while All-Star Batman & Robin isn't aimed at kids, it also doesn't have a "mature readers" warning on the cover. DC said "a printing gaffe" caused the problem and as soon as it was discovered, retailers were asked to pull the issue. However, according to today's Post, there are still plenty out there, and many are making their way onto e-Bay.
