Anyone still prefer the classic series?

I still disagree due to the circumstances and timing regarding the comic series for each, as I mentioned last time this was brought up. If you want to continue debating this, please start a new thread, because we're getting off-topic here.

So, even if you don't like the comparison, its true. I don't mean it in an insulting way, either. I don't even mean it as being a bad thing! I just mean it as being the truth.

No and no. These are your opinions, not facts. I stand by what I said earlier, meaning I disagree with your Batman comparison, and I believe the OT doesn't fit the definition of the word "campy." Neither of us are "right," though, since neither of those can be proven to be true or false. Let's just accept the fact that we have different opinions and move on.

Now let's please stop debating the definition of the word "campy" and get back on topic.
