Personal Quote:
There were other Batman writers throughout the years but they could never capture the style and flavor of Bill's scripts. Bill Finger was the best writer in the business and it seemed that he was destined to write Batman. See more »Trivia:
Gave Adam West, who portrayed Batman on the 1960s television series, a drawing of Batman with the inscription "To my buddy Adam, who breathed life into my pen and ink creation.". See more »Trademark:
Often based comic characters on well known figures See more »Star Sign:
