    The 2002 series wasn't the first time Batman (or Bruce Wayne) faced a murder charge. Here's a 1970 Batman two-part story, "Wanted for Murder-One, the Batman!" in which Batman faces a charge of murder. Script by Frank Robbins, pencils by Irv Novick, inks by Dick Giordano. Commissioner Gordon faces the possibility that his old friend, Batman, may be a murderer. But things can't be that bad because the problem is resolved early enough for there to be a backup story, "The Shutdown on Yoyr Street!" Script by Mike Friedrich, pencils by Novick, inks by Mike Esposito. 36 Pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.15.
