24-Hour Comic Day is just a month away and DC Comics is giving fans a new way to celebrate.
The comic conglomerate is selling blank DIY comics for the creative celebration but with a twist — these offerings feature official DC Universe logos for Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. The blank comics will give an official look to your fan creation. “To share the love of the craft is what creating comic books is all about,” DC co-publisher Jim Lee said. Take a look at the covers and the full statement below and see how you can rebirth the DC universe (again).

Want to be the next Jim Lee? Get your start in comic book art with the Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman blank comics, featuring uncoated 80-pound paper- the same stock used for DC’s blank variant covers.
The blank comics initiative is tied to the celebration of 24-Hour Comics Day (Oct. 3), explains DC co-publisher Lee. “The goal is to tell a 24 page story in 24 hours, and then to share these stories with one another to inspire and motivate others to create stories. To share the love of the craft is what creating comic books is all about!
On top of having official DC insignia on the cover, the blank comics also feature the same paper stock used for DC’s blank variant covers.
24-Hour Comic Day was organized in 2004 by Peanuts veteran Nat Gertler. The objective is simple but intense: create a 24 page comic book story in 24 hours straight. The holiday has grown over the years and inspired public and private celebrations.
DC’s blank comics retail for $2.99 starting October 3rd.
