Kevin was perfection. He was one of my favorite people on the planet, and I loved him like a brother. He truly cared for the people around him — his decency shone through everything he did. Every time I saw him or spoke with him my spirits were elevated. Kevin was a brilliant actor. For several generations, he has been the definitive Batman. It was one of those perfect scenarios where they got the exact right guy for the exact right part, and the world was better for it. His rhythms and subtleties, tones and delivery — that all also helped inform my performance. He was the ideal partner — it was such a complementary creative experience. I couldn't have done it without him. He will always be my Batman.
as far as I can tell, one of the last batman-related things conroy ever did was the CW Crisis event with batwoman which was a fucking disaster
they were like "go heroes, travel the dwindling multiverse and find the paragons of virtue or some shit" and so batwoman went to an alternate earth to find an aging bruce wayne (conroy) who can only walk via an exoskeleton due to a lifetime of injuries
she discovers that he killed one villain and after he started it got easier and easier to kill more and more and he lost track of all the people he killed, and among his trophies are a bloody joker card and a broken pair of glasses from a mild mannered reporter, who was responsible for his current injuries
with it revealed that he killed his world's superman, bruce decides it'd be better if everyone just died and attacks batwoman who accidentally throws him into a generator where he's electrocuted to death, and as he's dying with his last breath he says there is no hope
then batwoman goes back and says "I failed, I wasn't able to convince the paragon to come save the world" and they're like "no batwoman, you were the paragon all along, we need a woman for this job not a stinky man"
so hey, he's got a lot in common with mark hamill! both of their final appearances betrayed their character irrevocably
