Batman Day Cosplayer Challenge

Batman Day 2023 is September 16th. The first ever global Batman Day Cosplayer Challenge has begun. The Bat Signal is lit. We are calling all Batman Cosplayers including Gotham Villains. Therefore Joker, Catwoman, Harley Quinn and other Gotham cosplayers are invited to participate.

The DC Comics Batman universe has inspired a wide variety of Batman cosplayers around the world. 60 years of successful comics and movie franchises have help expand the Gotham fan base. These Caped Crusaders and Dark Knights use their costuming abilities to fight evil and support good causes. They often attend fundraising events or hospitals in costume. Because cosplayers work for a good causes, cosplay is often referred to as causeplay.

In honour of Batman Day 2023, Suit Up For Jack has created a Batman Day Cosplayer Challenge. Suit Up For Jack is a cosplayer driven blood donor awareness campaign. Its main goal is to help sick kids through needed blood donation. Cosplayers around the world donate blood while in costume. The act of donating in costume turns heads and gains attention in addition to the benefit of the actual blood donation. You can imagine donating blood at your local clinic and a Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman or Star Wars character walks in to donate. Cosplayers post photos of their blood donation to their social media. Photos are taken of the cosplayer holding a sign with the #suitupforjack hashtag on it.Therefore when the photo is shared on social media , followers of that cosplayer learn about the campaign.

With each new cosplayer post, more cosplayers become aware of this growing campaign and may decide to participate. Because of this chain effect the momentum of the campaign continues.

Global Batman Day 2023 Event

There is a global Batman Day 2023 Event on Sept 16th, 2023. The Dark Knight Returns with Gotham’s Super Villains to help sick kids during a worldwide Batman Day 2023 Event. The Bat Signal is on for Batman fans and cosplayers around the world. The group behind the bat signal is called Suit Up For Jack.

Suit Up For Jack is a global cosplayer-driven blood drive. Cosplayers donate blood in costume to bring attention to the need for blood donations everywhere. The campaign was inspired by a young cosplayer with Severe Aplastic Anemia. Jack has received over 140 units of blood so far to battle his disease. Because he depends on blood donors this young cosplayer has become an advocate for blood donation for other children around the world. SuitUpForJack is not to collect blood for Jack but for all kids anyway who require blood transfusions to battle the various diseases they are dealing with.

The Suit Up For Jack campaign encourages cosplayers to donate blood in costume. During their donation they hold a sign with the hashtag #suitupforjack on it and have photos taken. Photos are posted on the cosplayer’s social media accounts so other cosplayers become aware of the campaign. Cosplayers also share their photos via the Suit Up For Jack Instagram page.

Cosplayers Saving Lives

Blood Donor Clinics delight in the arrival of cosplayers. Support for the SuitUpForJack campaign has been strong from blood agencies. The campaign boasts an amazing 30% first time donor rate. 30 percent of cosplayers who #SuitUpForJack are first time donors. This means they have never donated blood before but became aware of the need though SuitUpForJack. Cosplayers often participate in charitable and fun raising events but the idea of directly saving lives through blood donation has proven a success. The campaign is constantly running but special donor events are held on special days like May the 4th ( Star Wars Day ) , Friday the 13th and of course Batman Day.
