Indexer Notes

The credits in the Greatest Batman Stories Ever Told are incorrect. Accidentally pasted on the wrong story. Credits for script and inks confirmed from Julius Schwartz's editorial records, provided by DC Comics. Records show that Bob Kane was paid for the pencils, but scholars agree that pencils were actually by Moldoff.
