Kevin Conroy , the longtime voice of several animated iteration ofBatman , has offered up a moment of utter exaltation for Bat - fans by giving a dramatic reading of the conclusion speech from Christopher Nolan ’s superhero chef-d’oeuvre , The Dark Knight .
Conroy has been playing the caped crusader almost continuously in one material body or another since the introduction of the critically acclaimedBatman : The Animated Seriesin 1992 . Starting his calling television and theater actor , Conroy quickly transition into almost only play Batman . He ’s portrayed the Caped Crusader in everything from lighthearted cartoon like the currentJustice League Action , to the in spades more matureArkhamvideo biz serial . If you ’ve watched a cartoon that feature Batman in the last quarter one C , there ’s a decent chance you ’re conversant with Kevin Conroy ’s vocalism . While live action Batmans have come and go , Conroy has been a incessant , and for many people of a certain generation , he only is Batman .
Conroy is always game to intermit out that iconic voice , and has treat fans to something they ’ll likely treasure . On theNerdistpodcastTalkin ' Toons , Conroy and horde Rob Paulsen - a fabled vocalization doer in his own right , having worked on such classic shows asAnimaniacsandTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- reenacted the shutting scene ofThe Dark Knight , where Batman and Commissioner Gordon conspire to cover up Harvey Dent ’s fearsome crimes in an effort to save Gotham City ’s soulfulness . Watch the picture below .
Despite a flub near the remnant , this is extremely emblematic of the version of Batman that Conroy has been portraying for the majority of the 21st C . It ’s a slightly gruffer , dusty version that has its ascendant in theBatman : The Animated Seriessequel series , Batman Beyond , which featured a much older , grizzled Bruce Wayne , and has largely colored all of Conroy ’s Batman performances since . It ’s not as dynamic as his performance in theBatman : The Animated Seriesdays ( beautifully represent in therecently remastered spinoff film , Batman : Mask of the Phantasm ) , but it accommodate the gritty , tragicThe Dark Knightmaterial quite well ; it ’s nothing poor of surreal hearing Conroy intone the " You either go a Hero of Alexandria , or live long enough to see yourself become the villain " line .
While Conroy has long poked fun at Christian Bale ’s infamously gravelly Batman voice , he recently hadnothing but kind thing to say about Ben Affleck ’s adaptation . While it ’s dainty of him to support the current live action Batman , it ’s problematic to imagine Conroy reciting any iconic lines fromBatman v Superman : Dawn of Justice . Maybe this November’sJustice Leaguewill offer up up some more podcast fodder for the live on vox of Batman .
