Gaming🎮 Kevin Conroy's final performance as Batman is oh so bittersweet

[Royal_Lizard]

Almost two years since his passing, Kevin Conroy's last outing as the caped crusader himself, Batman, is a truly emotional one.

In 2022, iconic voice actor and the man behind the Batman many of us grew up with, Conroy sadly died. The actor appeared in many projects over the years, of course the most notable being as Batman and Bruce Wayne in Batman: The Animated Series, reprising that role several times over the years, including in Rocksteady's Arkham games. Conroy appeared posthumously in this year's Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, again appearing as the Arkham incarnation of the character, but it was reported earlier this year that it wouldn't be his final outing as the character. Now, a clip has been released from the latest animated DC film, Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths - Part 3, which features one last performance of Conroy as the original version he played in The Animated Series all those years ago.

You can watch the clip above, which shows him fighting none other than The Joker (played by Mark Hammil, his co-star on the classic show, who's since retired from the character following Conroy's passing). The two are facing off, as they always do, in Gotham, though this time while their entire universe is crumbling around them. It really is a bittersweet one to watch, particularly because of what Batman says in the clip. As everything crumbles around them, Joker sarcastically notes how it's the end of the world, and Batman is spending it with him.
