Was always a fan of this. I would especially love his last line to Gordon from TDKR read by Kevin :pleading_face:

He will have company up there with Bob Hastings (Gordon) and Efrem Zimbalist Jr. (Alfred).

I read Susan Eisenbergā€™s tribute to Kevin Conroy on Twitter and started crying again. I think what makes losing Mr. Conroy so hard isnā€™t just that he was the quintessential Batman and so great in so many other roles, but that he was truly a great gentleman. I never got to meet him, but I donā€™t think I know any other actor who was as kind and thoughtful towards his fans. As much as we loved him, I think he may have loved us back even more.

This week, I read the story of his work in DCā€™s Pride month issue. Awhile ago, I saw this interview with Michael Rosenbaum (please check it out when you have the chance). I didnā€™t realize how much he had to deal with. He really was a fighter. Rest In Peace.

Really unbelievable. Did not even know he was sick. This came outta no where like Chadwick Bosemanā€™s death. Conroy is literally the voice I hear when reading Batman dialogue.

This is something I wrote to help me process my feelings on Friday. Itā€™s a bit long, but I needed to share it and couldnā€™t think of a better place.

Years before he became known as the Batman, Kevin Conroy was in his first movie about the President called ā€˜Kennedyā€™ (1983) staring Martin Sheen as President Kennedy and John Shea (Future Lex Luthor on Lois & Clark) as Robert Kennedy.
Conroy didnā€™t have a huge role, he played Ted Kennedy.


I remember when I first got my DVD of this movie, I was thrill to see him in a live action TV movie, hereā€™s a first 2 clips from the movie that heā€™s seen in on Election night of 1960.

Hope you enjoy it, Look for John Glover in the first clip who voice The Riddler in Batman The Animated Seriesā€¦

A year later Conroy was in a TV movie about George Washington, I havenā€™t seen that movie. He played John Laurens.


Now I really want to see the movie. He was a great actor, even before playing Batman.:pensive:
