Batman
& Robin (1949 Serial): When you think of Robin in a
live-action show, Burt
Ward usually comes to mind. Chris O'Donnell will be the more
obvious choice for younger fans of the character. But Robin was
played in two movie serials prior to the now-classic 1966 "Batman" TV
series. Douglas Croft was the first live-action Robin in 1943's
"Batman", and Johnny Duncan was Robin in "Batman & Robin" from 1949. I had the pleasure of e-mailing Mr.
Duncan in 2005.

Hello Mr. Duncan,
My name is Blair Whipple and I am a big fan of the "Batman & Robin"
1949 serial. In fact, I gave this film its own page on my Polar
Blair's Den website. It's a big, big website with many visitors
from all over the world and increasing in popularity every day it
seems. Basically, my page on your film is just a celebration of
this great production with pictures and some words just to explain to
visitors more about it. I hear from fans all the time who tell me
to add more to this page so I'm always adding pictures and things on a
regular basis.

Thanks for saying the smartest too. I had to chuckle.
Happy
Thanksgiving to you and your family.
