DC is legally required to print the "Batman Created by Bob Kane" because Kane arranged it like that. Nevermind Bob Kane didn't actually create Batman (okay he created maybe 5% of Batman) and that DC by the same agreement is forbidden to credit the guy that really created Batman, Bill Finger.
This is not true. It used to be true but has been resolved since the mid-eighties or so.
DC own Wonder Woman lock, stock, and barrel, and will continue to do so whether they publish her book or not.
