Per this Wikipedia timeline , Neil was inducted in 1960, at the age of 61. When we visited Hollywood last year, Neil's was the first star I saw from a Batman cast member. I saw Adam's soon afterward and hastily decided to "collect" bat-stars' stars with my phone, so I ran back to grab Neil...

How about Mickey Rooney in a Chandell-like double role as Tweedledee and Tweedledum? And while The Cavalier was a pretty lame villain, he'd have made a better role for Maurice Evans than the Puzzler. I'd love to have seEn Don Knotts in a bat-guest role, but I think he'd have been more convincing as ...

I'm not enough of a Batmobile aficionado to say which car it is (or if it's a reproduction), but the still posted on Facebook looks much more like an "undressed" Batmobile than a modified Futura: It has the Batmobile's rear tubes, open cockpit, and (despite the crummy color quality of the ...

This is great! And so is your sharing of the project!

I wonder if the lack of a "Pluto" henchman in the Zodiac Crimes caper might have had something to do with Disney's dibs on that name...

Here's a recent take on the same model (with a different paint job), as seen on Pawn Stars a few years ago: http://www.automobilemag.com/news/pawn- ... nvertible/

The Times included Adam in this year's edition of "The Lives They Lived," its annual round-up of noteworthy people who passed away.

Love the book titles! And it's great to see the whole cast included.

Congratulations to the lucky winners, and thanks again to Frank for adding to the holiday cheer.

Until I read the script, I never noticed that the deathtrap moving van said "John Doe & Sons," on the sides. or that the truck could be seen in the background of Joker's hideout. Now I can't stop noticing it -- and it bugs me that it's still there in part two, after the gang abandoned ...

Love it! But shouldn't it be "waist can"?

Fantastic! Please count me in -- and thanks for doing this!

James really is plugged in to the series, and he's a great writer, too, The Black Widow two-parter would never make my top 10 (or 13), but his hilarious descriptions of Miss Tallulah make me wish I liked those episodes better.

The belt with top-loading pouches was used only in the pilot episode. As I understand it, retrieving items from those pouches was unwieldy, especially for an actor wearing gloves. The "gravity-assisted" bottom-loading pouches proved much more efficient.

Chrisbcritter pretty much sums up my thoughts (especially about the drumstick). :) The only note I'd add is that someone in the production department wisely thought to add the business about painting the batpoles, to prevent Joker from literally reading the writing on the wall to figure out what wha...
