Wayback Wednesday takes us back 42 years to 1980 and the first appearance of the Electrocutioner. Batman #331 offers two tales for the Dark Knight Detective.

For a series fumbling around the idea of female empowerment, there is some irony in the idea that it’s a man who gets Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) back into the courtroom (as a lawyer and not a defendant) and into her super-hero costume for the first time.
