It's no secret that this year is the 75th anniversary of the Caped Crusader. Yes the Batman has been rescuing Gotham for that long and to celebrate this incredible occasion, Denver Comic Con has out done themselves again.  Ladies and gents DCC just announced an incredible lineup of Batman Guests for this year. Who exactly will be in attendance?  Well before we riddle you that we ask that you take a moment and sit down because I'm not joking when I say these guests are epic and will leave you feeling lightheaded.

THE DYNAMIC DUO - ADAM WEST & BURT WARD
Holy Reunion Batman! Not only did Denver Comic Con land the iconic Adam West but he will reunite with Robin himself, Burt Ward.  For those unfamiliar with Mister West outside of Batman, you can find him all over the place in film and television but he is best known from The Detectives, The Last Precinct, and of course he just happens to play Mayor Adam West on Family Guy.  

As for Mister Ward, after hanging up his cape and tights he went on develop Early Bird Learning, an education charity program that promotes social values, good health, safety, and critical thinking skills.  

These two are an incredible addition to Denver Comic Con and this is a panel that we all know will be worth taking the time to attend.

THE CATWOMAN - JULIE NEWMAR 
What good is a pair of heroes though without a villain?  Well don't worry DCC has us covered by bringing in the original Catwoman, Julie Newmar.  But her career goes beyond saucers of milk and bank heists.  Julie also won a Tony award for The Marriage-Go-Round and you've likely seen her in The Twilight Zone as well.

THE VOICE - KEVIN CONROY 
There are many of us out there who have only one Batman in mind when we think of the character.  He is the Dark Knight we rushed home from school to see on weekday afternoons, and yet we only truly knew him by his voice.  Kevin Conroy, the voice behind the Bat in Batman: The Animated series will also be attending Denver Comic Con this year.  In fact Kevin's voice is so synonymous with the character he has gone on to play him numerous times in The New Batman Adventures, Batman Beyond, Justice League and Justice League Unlimited.
