The sudden and tragic passing of Kevin Conroy, the revered voice actor who voiced Batman\/Bruce Wayne for Batman: The Animated Series <\/em>and the Batman Arkham<\/em> games and died in 2022 at 66, somehow felt worse with the release of <\/em><\/a>. Rocksteady\u2019s disappointing open world DC Comics game almost marked the last time that Conroy would voice The Dark Knight and an evil Batman at that. Even if the game was good, it wouldn\u2019t feel right letting Conroy\u2019s credit list end on such a down note.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, a new Warner Bros. Animation trilogy based on the Justice League: Crisis of Infinite Earths<\/em> DC comics series will feature the final voiceover performance of Conroy as Batman. <\/a> found its way to X yesterday.<\/p>\n

Conroy’s final voiceover occurs in the final film of the trilogy. If you don\u2019t want to know how it ends before you\u2019ve had a chance to watch the whole thing, you should stop scrolling down right now.<\/p>\n

This is a much better way to End Conroy\u2019s performance as Batman. I loved the dialogue here, I miss Kevin so much \ud83d\udc94 pic.twitter.com\/2qpd15eVGQ<\/a><\/p>\n

The whole scene feels like a purposeful nod and tribute to Conroy and his contributions to the animated and pixelated Batmen. The scene starts with lightning as the virtual camera pans down to Batman. He\u2019s standing on a building overlooking Gotham City just like in the opening credits of Batman: The Animated Series<\/em>, the 90s afternoon TV cartoon that first glued Conroy\u2019s voice to the image of Batman.<\/p>\n

The Joker, voiced by Troy Baker, sneaks up behind ol\u2019 Bats and tries to sucker punch him but fails. He strikes Joker to the ground and Joker says with a smile, \u201cI\u2019m flattered. The end of the world and you wanted to spend it with me. I didn\u2019t know you cared.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some kind of destructive force envelopes the city and sky. Batman remarks just before the world implodes, \u201cI care, Joker, about Gotham, about justice and if it has to end, at least I go out like this. Being Batman.\u201d<\/p>\n

We also should\u2019ve included a Kleenex warning because it\u2019s such a touching way to pay tribute to Conroy and his legacy to the Batman series.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
