Before Matt Murdock showed up in the 60s and passed his first decade Betty Bates was the longest running lawyer in comics, and with a 10 year run still remains the longest running non-powered one to feature in stories all her own and not as a supporting character.

All but forgotten today, she was however remembered in a article published in the ABA (American Bar Association) Journal.
