True or False: Batman Released a Single in the 1960s

When Bob Kane came up with the idea of Batman, I’m pretty sure he didn’t have Adam West’s Batman in mind. And I’ll bet that he went out of his mind when he heard West sing this song–as Batman–in 1966.

Not to be outdone, The Riddler got into the act.

Cracked has more, including a song released by Mr. Spock.
