However, his final appearance in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League fails to do justice to his character’s rich history and complexity.

The game overlooks crucial aspects of Batman’s narrative, including his resurrection and motivations, leaving fans disappointed with its treatment of the beloved character. Moreover, Conroy’s talents are underutilized, as Batman’s role lacks depth and significance within the overarching plot. The absence of meaningful interactions with supporting characters and the missed opportunity to pass on the mantle further diminish the impact of Batman’s presence in the game.

Despite its shortcomings, the game pays homage to Conroy in a post-credits scene, but it falls short of acknowledging his contributions to the Batman legacy. By neglecting key elements of Batman’s story and failing to honor his character appropriately, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League misses the mark and fails to deliver a fitting tribute to Kevin Conroy’s iconic portrayal of the Caped Crusader.
