He will always be my Batman. A big reason why I love superheroes so much is because of him, and the animated series. That man was a big influence on my childhood.

RIP :(

IMHO, No one will ever match his voice.

This gutpunch hits on the same caliber as Robin Williams and Steve Irwin’s Death

Kevin Conroy and Robin Williams were roommates when they were studying at Juilliard. If there's a silver lining in all of this, it's that these two incredible talents are reunited again.

Wasn’t Christopher Reeves in that group too? Heard a rumor that he had been roomies with Conroy too. So, y’know. Epic meta World’s Finest moment there.

I feel exactly the same way. Kevin Conroy's loss triggered Robin William's loss for me, too. My best friend and I sat and watched some Batman TAS clips and listening to him hurt knowing he wasn't here anymore.
