It should also be said that those incessant clock noises could get a bit annoying. His clock obsession, and his overall plot, is a bit less enthusing. Clock King (Walter Slezak)Ĭlock King looks ridiculous, which is perfect-necessary, even-for a Batman villain. However, since Astin is so talented, and since they do flood a bank which then results in a pretty sweet underwater fight with Batman and Robin, he’s still a memorable villain. His performance is too staid, and he’s kind of a jerk and overly pompous. But he doesn’t work as well as you’d hope in his one appearance as The Riddler-even if you don’t hold him up to the scrutiny of a comparison to Frank Gorshin. He’s delightful as Gomez Addams, and he’s a talented actor. She’s not especially silly, but she’s pretty fun, and a good villain worthy of kicking off the top 20.
And of course, there’s all that great spider stuff going on-including two big rubber spiders that almost kill Batman and Robin. She also has a fake rubber farm couple on the porch of her house to avoid suspicion, and a cerebrum-scrambling machine. That’s how she carries herself, and that’s essentially how the character is portrayed. Black Widow (Tallulah Bankhead)īankhead is a grand old dame. This is about all he does that’s worth noting, but it’s funny.
Preminger spends a good deal of time saying, “Wild!” a whole lot, and plays with his very bushy eyebrows. This version of the villain attempts to turn Batman and Robin into slush drinks.

Freeze, but even he can’t crack the top 20. She’s infinitely better than Zelda the Great, although she does get overshadowed by her counterpart, who we’ll get to later. Olga also hangs out with Egghead in both of her episodes-they even become love interests. Speaking with a thick Russian accent, she plays the incredibly over-the-top Queen of the Cossacks, swinging swords and ordering around her henchman. Olga, Queen of the Cossacks (Anne Baxter)Īnne Baxter is back! This time, she gets to have a lot more fun. However, the character, and Winters’ performance, ultimately lacks the bombast of the best Batman villains. Her evil plan, to get everybody arrested and then take over the prison, is pretty clever. Her daughter, Legs, was the first on the receiving end of the bit wherein a female prisoner’s prison number is their physical measurements. Ma Parker is a villain who’s really tied in with the rest of her gang, namely her kids. He also does, perhaps, the least amount of freezing of any Mr. But all of that still doesn’t make him a top villain. Freeze has a much better look than George Sanders’, along with a more amusing plan, and a homing seal. What she does have, though, is a Deepest Secret Extractor, which is a delightful tool, and Gabor is quite good, doing her usual glamor gal thing. This is unfortunate, if only because she isn’t one of the classic villains-one of those we really wanted to see closing out the series. Minerva is the very last villain in the very last episode of Batman.
