I love his Joker voice... I don't think he will be able to be replaced. Hopefully another one will come along and be wonderful in his own way, but Mark Hamill has always been (and probably will always be) my favorite voice of the Clown Prince of Crime.

Nooooooooooooo!

As far as I am concerned, he IS Joker.

 

[Spidey_62]

He's done an amazing dob with anything he's touched, I'm looking forward to hearing him voice the Joker one last time. I'm wishing him good luck and thanking him for all the voices he's done.

[ObakeTora]

Nooooooooooooo!

Nooooooooooooo!

As far as I am concerned, he IS Joker.

Agreed, he's the voice I heard when I read the joker.

 

[Gilpesh]

I'm glad. Hopefully the fanboys will shut up about him now.

Same here.

I'm glad. Hopefully the fanboys will shut up about him now.

What do you mean?

 

[Gilpesh]

What do you mean?

Everyone raves about his Joker and if he'll voice the Joker again any time soon. I am annoyed by that... so a chance that they'll stop, is a good thing.

 

[Harls]

I guess so, Gilpesh, but now everyone will whine and complain about anyone else being Joker or something like that :| People will always find something annoying to do/say.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Is he retiring from voice acting all together or just from doing the Joker?

 

[Gilpesh]

I'm willing to wait the few years for that glorious three year stretch where no one brings up Hamill's Joker. That is until the revival of the "Mark Hamill is the only Joker for me lulz!" where it is said every two seconds until someone gets murdered.

I always wanted him and Conroy to do one more direct to dvd movie

 

[Spider-Vader]

Hamill is the best Joker. No one can touch him, not even Ledger.

Though, this article makes it seem like he's only done with Joker, not VA altogether.

 

[TNC9852002]

The guy has had a spectacular run and no one can take away from all of his influence.

So, I hope that Arkum Aslyum will be his master achievement..

 

[Mike_D202]

Well, guess this means he won't be doing the voice of Luke Skywalker in Lucas's new CGI Star Wars cartoon in a few years.

 

[Rumpy Bulge Dubz]

this sucks, he was a sick Joker, one of the best.

 

[Manic]

This is a misleading thread title. He's only retiring from his role as the Joker, not from voice acting altogether.

 

[Harry_Lime02]

He put so much passion and effort into his Joker, you could tell.

 

[Obi-Ron]

Well, guess this means he won't be doing the voice of Luke Skywalker in Lucas's new CGI Star Wars cartoon in a few years.

That's not true! That's IMPOSSIBLE! NoooOOOooooOOOO....

(He was a good voice for Mr. J. but Cesar Romero will always be my favorite )

 

[DarkReflections]

Whenever I read a Batman comic all I hear is Mark's voice for the Joker and no one elses. Atleast we are lucky enough to have had Mark to have voiced the character at all.

 

[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

Mark Hamil = The Joker

Kevin Conroy = Batman

I'm hoping DC can throw enough $ at Hamil so we can get one move direct to dvd movie.

 

[Paradoxium]

Yea he said this very same thing for the first Arkham game.

Well, if it doesn't happen there's always Mask of the Phantasm for you fellas to watch again...

Oh, and over a dozen episodes of BTAS of course. Plus Return of the Joker. Then Bats/Supes World's Finest, some Justice League episodes, that one episode of Static Shock and hey, y'all can even play Arkham Asylum I and II to get your fix.
