Mark Hamill Fans Rejoice
Mark Hamill makes a shocking return as The Joker in MultiVersus. The iconic voice actor previously retired from the character due to the death of Kevin Conroy who was his Batman over the years. Hamill didn't play the Clown Prince of Crime for nearly a decade. The last time he played as The Joker was back in 2015 for Batman: Arkham Knight. However, this isn't the first time Mark gave up the character and then suddenly came back.
In 2011, Hamill announced he was retiring from playing The Joker after voicing the character in Batman: Arkham City. He then made his return and provided his voice talents for DC Universe Online. It's clear that Mark can't keep away from playing the maniacal clown. Die-hard fans of the character are now hyped to get their hands on MultiVersus to hear more recent voice lines from the actor and play as Batman's archnemesis.
