Are these names of Perry Mason cases or Batman bad guys?
Both shows dealt with clowns and widows.
On Perry Mason, each episode is named to describe the case Perry's cracking wide open. Often alliterative, these episode names identified suspects and victims in descriptive terms, so instead of seeing a character's name to label a case, we saw "Silent Partner" or "Haunted Husband" and the like.
Every now and again, these cases take on such colorful names that they actually remind us of another huge installment in 1960s television: Batman.
In the Sixties Batman series, not only did we see villains like the Joker and the Penguin, but we also got to know their henchmen and associates, and all these bad guys had names. These names were, like Mason's cases, sometimes alliterative and always highly descriptive.
In this overlap, we saw the perfect opportunities for a game that pits Perry Mason up against Batman to see if you can figure out which names below are for Perry's cases and which belong to Batman baddies. Good luck nabbing the right guy every time!

The Batman series sure had some strange villains. Aside from Joker, Riddler, Penguin, Catwoman, Mr. Freeze, Mad Hatter and Clock King, they invented some very bizarre rogues of their own.
14/18. In odd coincidence, "Printer's Devil" is also the title of a "Twilight Zone" episode. Who stars in that episode? None other than Burgess Meredith, The Penguin from "Batman"!
You got 12 out of 18 ----------Missed a few. Perhaps you should've hired Perry to solve some of these cases?
15/18! For me, Printer's Devil isn't Batman or Perry Mason, it's a Twilight Zone with Burgess Meredith!
