ADAM WEST 1928-2017


2017 has claimed yet another legend of the screen, both small and silver. Last night, Adam West passed away at the age of 88. While not without other , West is most famous for his extended stint as Batman way back in the 1960s. His portrayal of the Caped Crusader is undoubtedly one of the most iconic depictions of that character, regardless of the unjust scorn aimed at it throughout the years for sucking the seriousness out of the darkest mainstream superhero ever. I'd even argue that the 60s show is one of the most important parts of Batman's history/mythos.


Overall, rest in peace, old chum.
