    There are a small percentage of voice actors that truely create (or recreate) the roles as if the characters really existed. That list includes Peter Cullen,(Optimus Prime) Bill Daniels, (Knight Industries 2000) and james Earl Jones (Darth Vader) Kevin Conroy is that good. His Batman was just as good as any live action version of the character. He really deserves to be the voice of Batman for as long as he wants.

    I think at one point, I had figured that Kevin--between B:TAS, Batman Beyond, the movies,and the Justice League episodes--has done something like 150 performances in the Bruce Wayne/Batman persona. To blunt, there isn't a fan of what Warner Animation/DC Comics and Rocksteady who would complain. He is the greatest voice of Batman ever, and arguably the greatest voice/animation actor ever.

    Kevin Conroy is an supreme actor. The ability to deliver a performance as high-caliber as he does in the Batman: Arkham video game series without the aid of his fellow cast members is an amazing gift.
    He allows the Batman character depth, and certain level of humanity that is easily lost when dealing with a "super" hero.

    But the thing is, we keep praising Hamill and Conroy and Nolan and many others who contributed to the perfection of Batman. But there is one person who is rarely praised and spoken of on the internet and its been 15 years since his death.
    May we all give thanks to the great Bob Kane, without him, Batman wouldnt have existed
