Diana Pershing, who voiced Poison Ivy in Batman: The Animated Series, shared a heartfelt tribute to Conroy on Facebook:
"Very sad news: our beloved voice of Batman, Kevin Conroy, died yesterday. He's been ill for a while but he really put in a lot of time at the cons, to the joy of all of his fans. He will be sorely missed not just by the cast of the series but by his legion of fans all over the world. Below are pictures of Kevin with Loren Lester who plays Robin another with me and Tara Strong who is in the later episodes of Batman cartoons. And then finally, one of Kevin and me in front of the huge audiences we used to get when we did our panels. RIP, friend."

He'll always be the definitive Batman for me.

Shame he had to end his Batman career in goddamn Batwoman, having his character getting shitted on.
 
Best Batman. He was one of few actors who manged to play Batman and Bruce Wayne so well.
RIP.
 
Holy shit I just played through Arkham City last week and was completely taken back by his voice acting. He really is the definitive Batman voice and this is truly some sad news. He's in a better place now.
 
RIP the voice of my childhood. Batman TAS is still an outstanding piece of work.
