Holy Anticipated Box Sets, Batman! On November 11th, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is set to release the entire Batman television series which originally ran from 1966 through 1968 and made both Adam West and the titular hero a household name.

While at the recent 2014 San Diego Comic-Con, Daily Dead had the opportunity to attend a special press panel with West and two of his co-stars, Burt Ward (who played Dick Grayson/Robin) and “Catwoman” Julie Newmar who reflected on their time working on the show almost five decades ago now, and shared some really fun stories from some of the series’ most notable moments.

Ward also discussed some of the death-defying stunts he had to perform as Robin during the three years he spent working on Batman, West chatted about the enduring appeal of the series even after so much time and so many Batman’s that have followed, and Newmar even dished on some of the celebrities who made appearances on Batman throughout its run.

Check out the video highlights from the Batman ’66 press conference below and be sure to grab the brand new box set once it’s released later this year!
