Adam West appeared at the Lego 3: Beyond Batman panel at Comic-Con on Sunday to announce his appearance in the game, in which gamers must complete levels by saving … Adam West. West will appear in the game as he looks today, with grey hair, wearing not a batsuit, but a beige jacket.

Joining voice actors Troy Baker, Travis Willingham, Laura Bailey, Dee Bradley Baker, Josh Keaton, as well as TT Games director Arthur Parsons and executive producer Phil Ring, West introduced himself to the crowd, saying, "I'm nothing more than a curiosity. I'm a senior superhero now, so if you need any kind of direction or advice, feel free to knock on my door." West also fielded a brief Q&A with panel moderator, posed for a selfie with Baker, and signed merchandise for fans.

Here's the text of his Q&A:

Is it going to be weird when kids sit down and play with their parents, and they see you and ask mommy: 'Is that the mayor of Quahog?'

West: "I'm absolutely delighted to be up with these great voice actors; I've been doing a little VO work for a while, but nothing like what I've heard backstage … Hey Troy, give me a little Batman."

Baker: "[In Batman voice] I can only do little bit … Hey, can we do a selfie?"

West: "Sure! That's $85."

Was it a hard sell to get you into this game?

Are you crazy? It was money! [Laughs.] Any incarntion of Batman I am delighted to do. To be asked to do a game like this, to be able to push Batman a little harder in different directions … that was very interesting to me."

When the series ended in 1968, did you think you would be up here one day with us, talking about a Lego video game?

The only thing I thought is that it would be the end of me, and it was for a bit. But then I realised that what we created in the show … we created this zany, loveable world. I look around and I see the adults – I see you grew up with me, and you believe in the adventure. I never believed this would happen, that I would be up here with illustrious people like yourselves. I'm so grateful! I'm the luckiest actor in the world, folks, to have you still hanging around."

Are you prepared to accept the mantel and be the knight we need for the DC universe? Maybe you start having cameos in every DC movie?

Sure! Let's set this up right now.
