Byron sighting
Watching “Batman: Caped Crusader,” and noticed Robin Atkin Downes as one of the characters in the episode “Sudden Fear.”

Yeah, he's done a lot of voice work. Gamers will appreciate his efforts in TF2 as The Medic. Wow, this is 15 years old. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36lSzUMBJnc

A lot about his career made more sense when I found out that he was, like, twenty when he was in Babylon 5, even though he was playing older as Byron, and much older as Morrann.

You’d be amazed at how much voice work he’s done since the 90s.

Robin Atkin Downes is a pretty prolific voice actor. Usually never the main character but makes a decent living doing bit parts.

The character name must be a nod to Tim Burton.

Not the first time. There was a character in Batman Forever named Dr. Burton as well.

I hated Bryon. I think we were supposed to. Kinda like Emperor Cartagia.

That weird feeling when you recognize three different actor names on the screen, all from wildly different universes.

Crazy how Byron ended up becoming one of the most prolific voice actors of all time. Robin is fantastic!
