    Question Of The Day

    Major Spoilers Question of the Day: Bat-Villain ’66 Edition

    Matthew PetersonBy Matthew PetersonJanuary 2, 20194 Comments1 Min Read

    Having accidentally watched the 1966 ‘Batman’ movie recently, I’ve been ruminating about how good the Bat-Villain selection was on that show.  Aside from Frank Gorshin’s kinetic, shouty Riddler or Cesar Romero’s inexplicably mustachioed Joker, you had the brilliance of Burgess Meredith’s Penguin, three different Catwomen, outlaw Shane and even Joan Collins as The Siren.  Even guys like King Tut, who seem to have been completely forgotten, were great fun to watch in action, leading to today’s onomatopoeic query…

    The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) is torn between Gorshin and Eartha Kitt’s Catwoman from season 3, asking: Who is the best Bat-Villain from the 1966 ‘Batman’ TV show?

    Once upon a time, there was a young nerd from the Midwest, who loved Matter-Eater Lad and the McKenzie Brothers... If pop culture were a maze, Matthew would be the Minotaur at its center. Were it a mall, he'd be the Food Court. Were it a parking lot, he’d be the distant Cart Corral where the weird kids gather to smoke, but that’s not important right now... Matthew enjoys body surfing (so long as the bodies are fresh), writing in the third person, and dark-eyed women. Amongst his weaponry are such diverse elements as: Fear! Surprise! Ruthless efficiency! An almost fanatical devotion to pop culture! And a nice red uniform.

      Cesar Romero’s Joker is objectively the correct answer but I’m going to vote King Tut since he’s the only one to get a proper origin story in the show
