Tonight, according to the Super DC Calendar '76: Thomas and Martha* Wayne are murdered by Joe Chill, a crime so heinous it traveled backwards into the previous day by using a magic time bullet!

Now, here at Comics Oughta be Fun celebrate (celebrate?!?) Wayne Death on June the 26, but that's because of so many actual Pre-Flashpoint canon stories placing it at that date. But let's just play along and humor the Super Calendar this one time and wink at it, yes, of course, honey, June 8 is when it happened!

Meanwhile, we're gonna continue just as is and show you Night 8 out of 26!
