Today in Comics History, March 7, 20XX: Bruce Wayne points a gun directly at us, the readers


from Batman (2016 series) #47 (DC, July 2018); script by Tom King; pencils by Tony S. Daniel; inks by Tony S. Daniel, Danny Miki, and Sandu Florea; colors by Tomeu Morey; letters by Clayton Cowles

Now here's the thing...


from Fantastic Four (1961 series) #51 (Marvel, June 1966), script by Stan Lee, pencils by Jack Kirby, inks by Joe Sinnott, letters by Artie Simek

...Bruce is telling Booster to take him back to the night of his parents' murder. Since when did that become March 7? It has always been June 26 until this story, and I refuse to change my mind and calendar on that unassailable fact!

(Durn Flashpoint!)
