Adam West and Burt Ward on the set of Batman (1966)
Adam West’s Batman series is known for its campy style. But just how campy was it? At least nine of its Guest Stars playing the series’ villains knew first hand as they were closeted LGBT. Until the last few decades, if an actor was outed in public, their careers would end. So most of these actors never came out to their fans. Some were known to be LGBTQ by their friends or families, and stories about them still linger.
In the next few days I will post about Batman’s Campiest Gay Villains.

Danny was annoyed. Every. single. time something went a little tits up recently he found himself being summoned by the same costumed assholes who couldnt seem to handle a Clockworks blasted thing themselves. or take no for an answer.
and now he needed their help.
and were they answering any of their own stupid comms or phones or even their bloody emails? no. of course they werent. why would they?
So Danny did the only thing he could think of.
Danny summoned the batbrood. It actually wasn't as hard as he thought it would be. They were alot more death touched than he had first suspected.
"Not so fun now is it cat man?"
"It's Batman and who do you think you are-"
"are you sure you're not cat man? and who do I think *I* am? thats really freaking rich coming from you of all people. but I digress. I need help, you wouldnt answer your cat phone, so I took a page out of your book. Sucks doesn't it?"
