15 Superhero Voice Actors Who Totally Nailed Their Characters
11. Tara Strong: Raven
Warner Bros. Animation
Tara Strong is one of the most prolific voice actors in the industry, with stints on Batman: The Animated Series, The Powerpuff Girls and Teen Titans all cementing her status as one of the most preeminent voices in the medium.
Most fans will point towards her role as Raven in Teen Titans as being a highlight, however. Taking on the role of the half-demon sorcerer, Strong's stint as the character was typified by the subtlety of emotion she was able to convey, tackling a hero that, for the vast majority of the series, was very reserved and reticent towards her teammates.
Strong later went on to voice Harley Quinn when Arleen Sorkin departed the role, but it's her time as Raven (and Batgirl too), that's most fondly remembered.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
