Word is Brent Spiner may be the replacement, he's voicing him on Young Justice.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie Banks -
whats his reason for quitting i wonderComment

^Yeah, it's not like it's really a regular gig. He voices him every few years for one project or another. I know he's done the Joker in both Arkham video games.
As long as Conroy doesn't quit Batman, I'll survive.

There has never been a better voice for the Joker.
Pay him more money, and be done with it.

I believe he said that before Arkham City came out also. I think if a really good project came along, he'd do it again.
I'm surprised that DC hasn't made their next animated series an Arkham City translation. Seems like a no brainer to me. With the huge success of the 2 games, they would increase their viewership by huge numbers catering to both crowds. Get Conroy to star again and the fans would explode.Comment

sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.Comment

perhaps he was scared of being typecasted
After all it must have been hard on him doing conventions and everyone saying WOW he's the voice of the Joker
I think he wants to be known for another role perhaps a role in a major motion pictureComment

Given the fact that this was the type of work Mark Hamill was doing between Star Wars and Batman, let's hope that isn't his aspirations at his age. He's very fortunate that lightning struck twice within his lifetime... Particularly since I think it was Tim Curry who was originally cast as the Joker in TAS.Comment

Think of the absolute level of utter COOLNESS that would have been had if Tim Curry had actually played The Joker in a Batman film!!!sigpic Oh then, what's this?

This might be why Hamill is retiring... It sounds like a tough voice on the vocal chords.Curry was cast as the Joker in Warner Brothers' Batman: The Animated Series, and even recorded several episodes worth of dialogue. At the 1993 San Diego Comic-Con, Bruce Timm told a panel audience that Curry could not maintain the Joker voice for long, and would violently cough between takes, so he was replaced by Mark Hamill.Last edited by samurainoir; Oct 23, '11, 6:57 PM.Comment

just get this guy
and stop getting so worked up about Mark Hammil. I never get the fanboys that get so bent out of shape when someone other than Kevin Conroy or Mark get cast in these parts.You must try to generate happiness within yourself.

^^^ It's because there has never been a greater voice for Batman ever..... , When I read Batman in comics ..., I hear Conroy's voice when I read in my mind.... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.
