Yep.
Vale Adam West, the original and best Batman.
Condolences to Batmod on his loss.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Yes Dave, he too, is one of my favourite heroes.
Who could possibly
not be impressed by the Mayor of Quahog

Very sorry to read this. I lived for this show when I was a kid. Vale Adam West - the one, true, authentic Batman.

There was a black and white Batman TV series before that. But Adam West version was the first in colour and had some real babes. The Batman utility belt was a must for Christmas around 1970
Annoying opposition supporters since 1967.

I was going to meet him on July 29th in London. I still can't believe this.

Vale the caped crusader. An after school special.

Vale indeed.
And a contender for VPT post-of-the-year too, might i add.
What I liked about West was, he
knew he was type-cast forever as Batman from 1966 onwards, but had the good grace to roll with it, and also the nous to manipulate the publicity whenever he could, via conventions and retrospective specials, to stimulate the cash flow in the latter years.
