On November 10, 2022, longtime Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy died at the age of 66, but that didn’t mean we would never hear his take on the Caped Crusader ever again. Initially, it was believed that the video game Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League would be Conroy’s only posthumously-released DC project, but it was later confirmed that we would hear him as Batman one last time in Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part Three. That movie is now available to purchase on digital platforms, and fans have taken to social media to share their love for his big moment in the Tomorrowverse timeline-set movie.
Although Jensen Ackles still voices the Tomorrowverse’s main Batman in this flick that wraps up this continuity and the preceding DC Animated Movie Universe timeline, Kevin Conroy’s Batman gets a little time to shine on his native Earth-12 while fighting The Joker.

As the anti-matter wave erased Earth-12, Batman used his final moments to deal with the Clown Prince of Crime, who said he was flattered that the superhero wanted to spend the end of the world with him. Batman responded:
“Gotham City’s Dark Knight threw a punch at his arch-nemesis right as they were wiped from existence, and immediately afterwards, the Justice League/Justice League Unlimited versions of Aquaman, the John Stewart Green Lantern and Hawkgirl (Wonder Woman and Superman can also be seen in the background) were erased too, with John and Hawkgirl sharing one final kiss.”
Looking on X (formerly known as Twitter), there’s no shortage of praise for the conclusion to Conroy’s three-decade+ Batman tenure. @AmonWarmann wrote:
“This was a great line to bring Conroy’s Batman to a close.”
@Bluenightbeyond agreed that this was a great line to bring Conroy’s Batman to a close, saying:
“I can’t believe this was his last line. It’s perfect!”
@Haydenbarton_39 went a step further and explained why this was a great line for Conroy’s Batman to say in the midst of his world being destroyed:
“Conroy’s Batman has always been about fighting for what’s right, even when the odds are stacked against him. This scene perfectly captures that spirit.”
