I know for a fact that this exact thread already exist, but I don't want to search and link so I won't flag. Maybe. :P
Pretty much just voicist that either have had the role or would fit it, ie, the Timmverse, BTAS, Young Justice, Jensen Ackles for Red Hood. Except Nightwing....I use my own voice.
I mainly just imagine Batman and Joker with the TAS voices. Everyone else is just random voices that come from my head. I've always struggled to find the right inner voice for Atomic Robo though.
For Captain America it used to be Patrick Warburton. Now thanks to Captain America: The First Avenger and Marvel's The Avengers movies I hear Chris Evans, and sometimes Avengers: EMH Cap.
Justice League voices (Joker is similar to Hamil, Conroy as Bats, Daly as Supes...), Red Hood is Jensen Ackles (srsy, he did such a good job!), Robins (depending on the comic) sound similar to Robin I/NW in YJ or the first Robin in BTAS (Tim/Jason sounds too young imho)...
Fun game: Read detective comics in the Bale voice. R.O.F.L.
It's usually the most recent voices I've heard for these characters. So for DC it's a mixture between DC animated films voice actors and DCUO voice actors, and for Marvel it's video game voice actors.
I mainly just imagine Batman and Joker with the TAS voices. Everyone else is just random voices that come from my head. I've always struggled to find the right inner voice for Atomic Robo though.
I usually use the animated series voices whenever applicable. I've come to use a slightly modified Nightwing voice from Young Justice as Tim's voice. I just use whatever I think sounds appropriate.
Bruce Wayne/Batman will forever be Kevin Conroy however. Never will he be anything else.
depends, if the characters appeared on a movie o tv show usually i use that voice(except captain america, i don't like any tv/movie voice i have my own voice for him), if the character never appeared i usually use a voice what fits with the character personality
X-Men - all the voices from the 90s cartoon Colossus - Dan Green (From the Joss Whedon Astonishing X-Men Gifted Motion comic) Joker - Mark Hamill Batman - Kevin Conroy Spider Man - voice from the 90s cartoon Kitty Pryde - voice from Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men Gifted Motion comic) Black Widow - voice from Ultimate Avengers movie
Normally the characters dialog and personality sort of generate their own voices in my head. Sometimes it's a actor from the video games/films/cartoons etc. Other times I've no idea where the voice comes from, but it's distinct. Aunt May, for some reason sounds like the old woman/fairy/whatever in Fern Gully. Weird.
I use Conroy and Hamill for Batman and Joker... I use Diana's generic monotone voice from the cartoons... Harley Quinn... obviously.... I don't use Daly for Supes... I kind of make up his voice. Then I have a slew of generic voices I use for other people.
For the X-Men, it's a mix of the voices from X-Men: The Animated Series and the Astonishing X-Men motion comic. For Batman, it's the voices from Batman: The Animated Series. For Spider-Man, I hear my own voice for Peter Parker and the voices from the Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon for the others. For Superman, it's the voices from Superman: The Animated Series. The influence of good voice work goes beyond cartoons, I guess.
Surprisingly enough, I don't exactly imagine a certain voice when I read. Or I do and it's a voice I've created in my head? I do sometimes imagine Hamill's voice as the Joker. But it mostly happens with Batman. Kevin Conroy's voice is just there.
