Adam West Has Died at the Age of 88



 And I’m really sad.

Per THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER, Adam West has died at the age of 88 after a short battle with leukemia.

“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.

60's Batman LEGO set !?!?!?!

http://www.bricksandbloks.com/lego-batman-classic-tv-series-batcave-revealed-photos/

 
It looks like the LEGO Batman Classic TV Batcave will include nine Minifigures,(Batman, Robin, Bruce Wayne (Adam West), Dick Grayson (Burt Ward), Alfred Pennyworth the Butler, The Joker, The Riddler, The Penguin and Catwoman Minifigures) all of which are exclusives in these iterations (although I believe Dick Grayson is the only character we’ve never seen released as a minifig before in his non-Robin guise).

RIP Batgirl #YvonneCraig

http://variety.com/2015/tv/news/yvonne-craig-dead-batgirl-batman-dies-1201573165/

Yvonne Craig, the actress best known for her role as Batgirl in the 1960’s “Batman” TV series, died on Monday. She was 78.
Craig passed away at her home in Pacific Palisades surrounded by her family, according to her spokesman. She had been suffering from breast cancer that metastasized to her liver.


More sad news in the Batman Universe, earlier this week we lost a fan who embodied the spirit of Batman...HERE. Today we learn of the passing of the original Batgirl, Yvonne Craig.  Although I never had the privilege to meet her, I did manage to get a autographed copy of her book From Ballet to the Batcave and Beyond. By all accounts, a wonderful lady lost.
