Check with his doctors, if they are baffled and confused it was the vax.
According to the article, it was after a long illness though it also states a New York Post report saying that it was cancer. My guess is that it was a cancer caused by the vax.
Then there is this Yahoo article that says Kevin Conroy died after a short battle with cancer. I strongly suspect the vax,
Damn super sad he was the Batman. Was the best VA by a large margin and probably the best overall
My niece posted his passing in her FB today. She did some drama/acting stints with him over the past years. To her, it was suddenly out of the blue. I’m 100% it was the vax. She would never say it..very sad. She totally looked up to him, loved and respected him. I didn’t know him but I assumed it was a guy here locally that had passed:(
Thanks for reporting. I knew something had to be fishy when I saw that Yahoo report. Hopefully your niece didn't take the vax.
I've never heard him either. He wasn't in any of the cartoons in the 1960s. The story says he started his Batman gig in 1992. Most people who have heard this guy have probably never heard the earlier Batman or seen any of the old movies.
The Batman Animated Series from the 90s was very well made and the actors did excellent. Regardless of Hamil as a person, he as the Joker and Conroy as Batman were a good duo.
And as a matter of fact, I have seen the old movies and the 60s TV show. There was actually a cartoon movie in 2016 with Adam West before he died that was an homage to his show, as well.
And Conroy was a great Batman.
In fact it was largely agreed that the animated movie he starred in - 1993's Mask of the Phantasm - was largely superior and more mature compared to the live action movie (Batman Forever starring Val Kilmer) which came out two years later.
The animated show is actually responsible for Harley Quinn and the popular notion of Mr. Freeze's backstory. I would highly recommend checking out a couple of the episodes. It's a good series.
"Heart of Ice", "Almost Got 'im", the two-face episodes are good. "It's Never Too Late" is pretty great and a bit more personal - Batman calls a priest to try and reform a mob boss. The cartoon has a very noir style which was quite unique.
The animated Batman I saw was back in 1968. Olan Soule was the voice of Batman, and Casey Kasem was the voice of Robin.
