#216 Putting a Finger on the Clock King script
from To The Batpoles! Batman 1966
The Clock King's Crazy Crimes/The Clock King Gets Crowned is the one Batman '66 arc written by Bill Finger, now credited as a co-creator of the character, and Charles Sinclair. Unsurprisingly, the first draft of the script reveals a writer not well versed in the rules of Hollywood, such as that an actor who says one word on screen is more expensive than one in a non-speaking role. This time we look at the first draft, final, and revised final scripts of the Clock King story, finding bits that changed significantly as shot, and answer some of our questions about odd parts of the story. ALSO: The London Music Works version of the Batman theme, Burgess Meredith on the origin of the Penguin's quack, and your mail!
