Jeb ★ Posted June 10, 2017 Report Share Posted June 10, 2017 Adam West, Straight-Faced Star of TV's 'Batman,' Dies at 88 Adam West, the ardent actor who managed to keep his tongue in cheek while wearing the iconic cowl of the Caped Crusader on the classic 1960s series Batman, has died. He was 88. West, who was at the pinnacle of pop culture after Batman debuted in January 1966, only to see his career fall victim to typecasting after the ABC show flamed out, died Friday night in Los Angeles after a short battle with leukemia, a family spokesperson said. West died peacefully surrounded by his family and is survived by his wife Marcelle, six children, five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. “Our dad always saw himself as The Bright Knight and aspired to make a positive impact on his fans' lives. He was and always will be our hero,” his family said in a statement. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/adam-west-dead-batman-star-832264 Rest in Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightning116 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Aw damn it. This is what I get for not being on social media for the entire weekend. I just read about this too. Adam West was a barrel of laughs as Batman. R.I.P and bring the laughs to 'em up there, Adam. This sucks. We lost James Bond, Wallace and now Batman in 2017 already.

Lunchbox Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 Not sure how many of you are fans of Kevin Smith related things but this is from his podcast last week with Ralph Garman who was a huge fan, and eventual friend of Adam West. Its sweet and at the same time totally heartbreaking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
