Frank Gorshin, impressionist but better known as the Riddler from the sixties sitcom version of "Batman," died at age 72.

The three major male villains from that show are now gone.

I always liked Gorshin's Riddler the best of the villains. He was creepy and genuinely insane. The Joker acted like a spoiled child, and I could never take the Penguin seriously when he did things like run for Gotham City mayor...

Bummer.

Yes, Gorshin was the only villain on that show who felt like a villain. The others were more cartoon than anything else.
