So Long Alfred...

In case everyone hasn't heard, the voice actor who played Alfred on Batman The Animated Series has died at the age of 95. His name was Efrem Zimbalist Jr. Here's the story from IGN. I just figure there are a lot of TAS fans around here and if there aren't there ought to be! I personally think he was the greatest Alfred ever and it's not even close.

All the Alfreds of our childhood are gone (and I count the 60s Batman because of the reruns of it in the 80s and 90s on UK television), shame

He also voiced Doc Ock in the 90s Spider-Man series, who, eerily enough, was recently killed off in the comics.

I loved his portrayal as well. He'll be missed alright. RIP Mr. Zimbalist. You were my favorite Alfred.
