When it comes to Ex. Ed. credits, we should only consider the publication in which the person was credited as such.

That said, I've found that the transition between Kahn and Carlin is not really clean cut as it would seem in the comic template help page. When looking at the mastheads of the comics of 1996, I've found that Carlin started being credited somewhere between August and November 1996. The only problem is that he wasn't credited in all the published books. In Detective Comics for instance, Carlin didn't show up as Ex. Ed. in the masthead until in 1999, meaning that all comics prior to that should still be credited to Kahn.

Bottom line, if you're unsure about the credit, it's probably best to leave it blank.
