Remembering Adam West, TV’s Batman
Written byServo Jefferson
The original caped crusader is dead at 88.
Our collective childhoods all suffered a loss over the weekend with the passing of Adam West. While West is most famous for playing Batman on television between 1966 and 1968, his career spanned over 60 years.
West’s personal life during this period is somewhat legendary. He was once kicked out of an orgy for staying in character as Batman. He also found himself banned from Aspen, Colorado for a decade and a half for reasons that have really never come to light.
Adam West passed away in Los Angeles on June 9th after a battle with leukemia. He was 88.
