Mark Hamill Retires from Voicing the Clown Prince of Crime!
Mark Hamill announced yesterday via Twitter that he is stepping away from his iconic work as the ultimate voice of the Joker.
According to @HamillHimself: “Hello/Goodbye Joker! I’ve enjoyed every minute behind the wheel of the Crown Prince’s crazy car- I’m going to miss him more than I can say!!”
We will definitely miss his Joker rendition as well. Mark Hamill was as excellent in his voice acting work as Kevin Conroy playing The Dark Knight. Both actors’ work on Batman: The Animated Series made it one of the best pieces of animation to come out of the 90’s!
Mark Hamill also brought the Joker to life in the video game version of Batman in Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City.
Thanks again Mark!
