Wow, he's aged well. I am also glad to see that in real life, he does favor pants.

Seeing old heroes in their faded glory can be a bit of a bummer. In a more extreme example, about ten years ago I went to a toy collector's show in Framingham, MA, featuring tons of faded stars (Loretta Swit, Peter Tork). One of them was Adam West. (I was 9 or so when the Batman TV show blew the lid off pop culture.) I was heading to the dealer's room in the hotel when from around the corner, coming towards me, appeared Mr. West. And just from looking at him even for that short time, it was apparent he was an alcoholic.
