Batman Meets Batman

At a Hollywood Celebrities Show several years ago, I witnessed the crossing paths of two Batman past and present.  Adam West (Batman from tv and my youth) briefly chatted with Val Kilmer (the most recent big screen Batman at that time).
I have written about West's rigid stance about unauthorized picture-taking, but I couldn't let this moment pass without trying.  I managed to snap the picture below.  While it might not be the best shot, at least it did not incur the wrath of West (or perhaps he just didn't notice because of my sly photography skills.  Either way, I am glad I got the two Batmen in one shot. 
I don't know why some celebrities will pose with others and some won't.  I also don't know why some conventions organize such photo-ops.  I just know that multiple (connected) celebs together for photos is very popular with attendees

Holy Batman Again, It's Val Kilmer

Last Wednesday, I wrote about meeting Batman at a summer fest in Schaumburg (IL). Previously, I have written about meeting Batman (Adam West) and other Superheroes. Today, I am featuring one more Batman.
Val Kilmer appeared as Batman in the 1995 film version. It was only a few years later when I met Kilmer at the Hollywood Celebrities Show.
Kilmer had a huge line and was charging a pretty large amount for an autograph. I wormed my way in for a picture though. I have a special place in my heart for Kilmer from his movie Top Secret! Plus, anytime I can get a photo with a Superhero, I am in!
