Batman Said What???

Could this have been a publicity stunt?
It looks like thousands of DC Batman comic books need to be destroyed.
The reason?
Apparently a "printing error" revealed a ton of curse words and obscenities.
The words, like fuck and sit, were supposed to be blacked out. However, two shades of black were used and the curse words were clearly legible, including words like a-hole and c*unt.
Scandal!
One part of the comic has Batgirl saying "Text every friend you've got, sh*theads. Sell your poison somewhere else. This here arcade belongs to the f*cking Batgirl."
When did that slut get such a potty mouth???
Has Batgirl been hanging out with Miley Cyrus????
The curse words appear in All-Star Batman & Robin the Boy Wonder No. 10.
So, DC Comics has asked all vendors to destroy the copies they receive, as they caught the error earlier this week while the comics were heading to the stores.
Some shipments were able to be stopped, but others got delivered and those were asked to be destroyed.
According to DC, the error was "a printing gaffe" which caused "a problem with All-Star Batman. As soon as the problem was discovered, we quickly asked retailers to pull the issue. We apologize to our retailers and fans for any offense or inconvenience."
And while some comic-book stores have pulled the issues, others still have them for sale, like St. Mark's Comics in NY.
The owner says, "We've sold a lot. We didn't destroy it because we couldn't know everyone would destroy it." Oh, and they're also not inflating the price. The comic is still being sold for the cover price of $2.99, adding "There's no need to inflate the price. It's wrong and evil and slimy."
Yea, and it helps that people can buy it for cheap, because then they can sell it online and rip others off.
A few copies have already been found on eBay selling between $20 and $250.
