There’s also an outpouring of DC fans sharing and remember the Batman scenes that Conroy himself loved best. There are so many to choose from.

Why I Do What I Do

Kevin Conroy passing away is devastating. His iteration of Batman is the first character I ever loved and set me on the life path I’m currently on.

When discussing the all time pantheon Batman actors, his name will forever deserve to be mentioned near the top.

Rest In Peace. pic.twitter.com/cvwAzrpdb6

Kevin Conroy’s work on Batman: The Animated Series helped inspire a much wider pool of new creative talent than a Batman comic ever could. Including us.

Death Is An Injustice

So sad to hear about Kevin Conroy. He was THE voice of Batman for generations, including our INJUSTICE games.

So iconic. What a loss. RIP 🙁 pic.twitter.com/JpgRwIGDAh

The game developer of DC’s hit Injustice game (and universe) showed his condolences. Conroy’s work reached well into gaming, as his Batman voice also defined Injustice and the equally successful Arkham Asylum game series.

Great Gifts Gone

In the documentary I Know That Voice, Kevin Conroy tells this unforgettable story about working at a food relief station in Manhattan in the days after 9/11. It’s one of my favorite stories he told about the power of his talents. Rest In Peace Mr. Conroy pic.twitter.com/CVb6vLQlEb

If you ever doubt the power that a voice actor can have… don’t.

Words of Comfort… From Kevin Conroy

We heard the news about Kevin Conroy last night and spent the rest of our nights in our emotions hoping it was just a rumor. Genuinely don't know what to say.
