Well, this is a nice surprise! It’s just been revealed via the MCM Expo Twitter page that Roger Craig Smith – the current voice actor for Sonic the Hedgehog – will be attending the London Comic-Con later this month. Though Roger will be in attendance primarily to promote his role as the titular character in Batman: Arkham Origins, his appearance will also come hot on the heels of the UK release of Sonic Lost World.
According to Gamasutra, Roger will be signing autographs, making personal appearances and taking part in a panel to answer fan questions throughout the weekend at MCM. You’ll be able to find him at the WB Games stand on both Saturday 26th October and Sunday 27th October, as confirmed via the MCM website.
If you can’t make it to the MCM Expo, Roger will also be appearing at GAME’s Stratford store on Friday 25th October from 9:00-11:00am to meet fans and sign copies of Batman: Arkham Origins.
Are you going to the MCM Expo this month? And if so, do you plan on saying hi to Roger? Let us know in the comments!
Wait a minute. HE does Batman for those games!?
Only Origins. Kevin Conroy did the first 2.
And Troy Baker takes over Joker in Origins as well.
I know. They do great job. I mean I expected Roger for Batman since I’ve heard him do voices like that before but dang Troy does a great Mark Hamill styled Joker. O.O
Well that’s excellent! Combined with the SEGA cosplay photoshoot ( https://www.facebook.com/events/155382638001674/ ) I think Sonic fans are gonna have a lot of fun at that con! 🙂
GOD-DAMMIT! I really, really, REALLY want to meet this guy – but I live in Manchester! And there’s no WAY that he’d ever come to Manchester’s MCM Expo! 🙁
*near Manchester.
Man, am I glad he’s voicing Bamtan for Arkham Orgins (And he’s really impressive!).
Now if only we can get the idiots who still complain about Sonics new voice to shut up about it, and move on.
(People who think Jason Griffith is better must be idiots).
My sentiment exactly.
Listen, pal.
I do respect your opinion about Roger, but you have no right to call anyone an idiot just because they don’t feel the same way about it like you do.
Apologize.
sonic is batman
So he voices a hedgehog and a Batman…. interesting. 😛
Why dont they have anything like this in Australia? Australia isn’t a SEGA country anymore..
Yeah Roger is awesome! Go here to see how many characters he have voiced! http://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/Roger-Craig-Smith/ 😀
Voice of Sonic, Batman, Chris Redfield and Assassin’s Creeds ‘s Ezio Auditore da Firenze . . LEGEND 😀
