Kevin Conroy – June 2018 – CONversations with Craig
from Matinee Heroes
Kevin Conroy was not just the voice of Batman to a generation of fans. He was the voice. In this live conversation from the San Francisco Comic Con in 2018, he pulls back the curtain on how he landed the role, why his classical theater training made him the perfect Dark Knight, and how the emotional core of Batman shaped every performance he gave. Kevin Conroy explains how his classical theater training and deep understanding of Batman’s trauma helped him create a version of the character that felt real, grounded, and timeless. Conroy shares memorable Juilliard stories, including living with Robin Williams, which reveals both the humor and the serious craft behind great performance. He also discusses the creative chemistry between Batman and the Joker, especially his collaboration with Mark Hamill, and how strong scene partners helped elevate the animated series into something truly special. “I am vengeance. I am the night. I am Batman.” – Kevin Conroy Want more exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes stories from the people who bring your favorite characters to life?
