Line 34:
* [[Adam Westing]]: The star of the [[Batman (TV series)|'60s series]] appears as a washed-up actor who played "The Gray Ghost," a [[Show Within a Show|fictional superhero]] whom Bruce Wayne idolized as a child. The dramatic variant of the usual Adam-West-as-himself gag works, and this rendition is a more sincere experience for West and fans ("So it wasn't all for nothing."). Also doubles as [[Remake Cameo]] and [[Actor Allusion]].
* [[Adaptation Distillation]]: The episodic nature replicated the feel of the comics, and the various characters were streamlined into their most efficient archetype.
* [[Adaptational Weakling]]: Batman lucked out when facing Bane. In the comics, Bane made his debut by releasing all the crooks in Gotham and successfully breaking the Bat's back. BTAS Bane fortunately likes to play with his food; he taunts Batman by trashing the Batmobile, and kidnaps Robin as bait to lure Batman into a trap. Batman is able to find an opening in their fight and deliver him unmasked to his employer, Rupert Thorne. It still was a close call and Robin was unable to help because he was fighting Thorne's assistant Candice in the water.
* [[Adult Fear]]:
** "See No Evil" is, essentially, the story of a woman dealing with her ex-con ex-husband who keeps breaking into her house and eventually kidnaps her daughter.
