He may not have been the "best" Dark Knight, but was certainly the most campy and fun one, and one who remains the cowled face of Bruce Wayne for some to this day. Rest in peace, sir.

Oh crap. He was a fixture of my childhood and will always be the one and only Batman in my book.

The hits keep coming.
Had a Batman cape and loved Adam West as a little kid. Was cool to see him connect with the next generation on Family Guy.
R.I.P., Mr. West.
