While everything good is either burning, bleeding, or behind bars in Batman Eternal, you can always take a break from the darkness by picking up a copy of Batman '66, where it's summer time in Gotham and even The Dark Knight can be seen walking about in the daylight-- actually, he seems to always be…

Who's ready for more stories inspired by the classic TV series?! Well, the solicitation for this issue certainly said we would be getting more of the villainous cowboy Shame this issue and the cover definitely shows Shame's boots, but alas there is no Shame to be found within Batman '66 #9. However, it does feature…

Issue #8 features two villains whose popularity didin't quite survive beyond the 1966 William Dozier TV series, but they were still quite memorable foils for the Dynamic Duo (at least in my mind). First there's King Tut (played by Victor Buono on the TV series), a professor of Egyptology who began to think he was…

It won't be until much later this year that we get the original TV series on Blu-ray, but until then we always have Batman '66 to give us our campy Batman fix! This month's issue collecting the DIGITAL FIRST title features two stories (one large, one short) that pit the Dynamic Duo against the little-known…

Granted, it's been a long time since I've seen every episode of the Batman TV series, but I had zero recollection of who "The Bookworm" was going into this issue and I like that. One of the things I've really treasured about Batman '66 so far is that writer Jeff Parker has been unafraid to…

Do you remember the episode of Adam West  & Burt Ward's television series in which the dynamic duo battled "The Sandman"? I didn't, but I was eager to see this character return for one more battle and we're going to talk about it in this review right here, right now! The Sandman Says Good Night…

I doubt that the Clock King or The Mad Hatter is anyone's favorite villain from the 1966 Adam West TV series, but writer Jeff Parker and artists Jonathan Case and Sandy Jarrell dust these characters off and give them the best episodes they never had. The Hatter Takes the Crown Sick and tired of every…

The only thing I hate about this series is that it makes me want to watch a show that I can't find. As I read Batman '66 I hear Adam West delivering all of Batman's lines, Ceaser Romero's laugh, creepy Vincent Price delivering egg puns, and, of course, I can hear the trumpets blow with…

This is about as close as Adam West is going to get to a Lethal Weapon 2 "It's just been revoked!" scene. In Batman '66 #2, Penguin has built a giant iceberg in Gotham harbor that has been recognized as the independent nation of Penguinia. Penguinia is blocking all shipments from entering Gotham, but for…

LATE REVIEW EDITION I didn't have a chance to review this before I headed to Comic-Con, but I certainly hope many of you gave this new Digital First Series a chance last Wednesday. Wow! Talk about standing out from the crowd. If you feel like every bat-book is the same then you need to pick…
