Batman: 80 Greatest Ever Moments

72. "Am I Blue?" - Justice League Unlimited

You can keep your Christian Bales and your Ben Afflecks, because Kevin Conroy is the Dark Knight's true voice. He first took on the role of the character in BTAS and has gone onto reprise the part in future shows, films and even video games. If you'd have asked fans in 1995 that one of those future projects would see the actor sing as Batman, they probably wouldn't have believed you.

And yet, in "This Little Piggy", the Dark Knight does just that. It's beautiful.

71. Navigating Political Fights As Bruce Wayne - Batman: The Telltale Series

Telltale

While the Arkham titles were the first Batman games to really make you feel like Batman, Telltale's take on the superhero offered the first chance for players to really feel like Bruce Wayne.

While there were still opportunities to deck criminals across all of the episodes, a huge chunk of the experiences is dedicated to what happens outside of the costume. As Bruce Wayne, the player is forced to navigate the politics of being a wealthy billionaire trying to do good, knowing more about his friends and enemies than he's able to let on.

The genius of Telltale's game is that it made making the decisions as Bruce, caught in a web of politics, as intense as any of the superhero fistfights.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
