Biography:
Bookworm, a villain from the 1960s Batman television series, was portrayed by actor Roddy McDowall. He was created specifically for the show and did not originate in the DC Comics Batman universe.
Bookworm's modus operandi revolved around literature. He used literary clues, famous quotes, and book-related schemes to commit crimes and challenge Batman and Robin. His costumes and props were often themed around books and writing, such as using poisoned book pages or typewriter bombs.
Despite his intellectual nature, Bookworm was often clumsy and easily outsmarted by Batman and Robin. He was primarily a comedic villain, adding to the show's campy tone. He appeared in several episodes across the show's run, becoming a memorable, albeit not particularly threatening, foe for the Dynamic Duo.
