The Bat-signal will be seen in Los Angeles on Thursday night in honor of "Batman" actor Adam West, who died June 9 at age 88.

Mayor Eric Garcetti and Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck will light the signal, which will be projected onto City Hall in a ceremony beginning at 9 p.m. Guests will arrive starting at 8.

The Bat-signal, a comics version of 911 where the Caped Crusader answers the call, is employed by the Gotham City Police Department to summon Batman's help. Organizers said fans are welcome to show up at 200 N. Spring St. in downtown L.A. in costume.

Anyone here going?

But.... you can just call his Batman on the red bat-phone.

Not...not anymore, no.

Maybe he can see that signal up there in the clouds, if it reaches him.

And I want pics.

What if Batman is watching tv or taking a nap when the bat signal goes up?

 

[Obscura]

Ridiculously cool tribute.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

We saw this in Batman Returns. Much like Chuck Norris, he never sleeps. He waits.

 

[TheRedSnifit]

Man, wish I could've been there. Really awesome tribute.

If I ever win the Powerball, I am soooo buying a spotlight light with the Batman symbol.
