So I've been going through watching Justice League and Justice League unlimited and I keep hearing the voices of huge Sci-Fi actors! I just think it's awesome that I can find people from some of my other favorite shows scattered about as characters in a great super hero show!

Here's a list of who I've spotted so far:

- Robert Picardo (The Doctor from Star Trek: Voyager) as Amazo
- Michael Dorn (Worf from Star Trek: The Next Generation) as Kalibak
- Nathan Fillion (Mal from Firefly/Cpt. Hammer from Dr. Horrible) as Spy Smasher
- Gina Torres (Zoë from Firefly) as Vixen
- Adam Baldwin (Jayne from Firefly) as Bonk

Yeah, Many of the actors in Sci-Fi films have done voice work.  So Mustash, for extra credit, Teryl Rothery - Dr. Janet Frasier in "Stargate SG-1" and Myriam Sirois - Weapons Officer Sarah Cantrell in "Babylon 5: Legend of the Rangers" were also voices in what major anime?  No fair looking on ANN or Wikipedia to find out.

How come none of them have their NYC names? Bronx, Brooklyn, etc.?

Superman, starred in the hit NBC TV show Wings. Tim Daly.

I guess those shows pay a lot better than Funimation and ADV do huh?
Have Fun

You forgot the biggest one! Granted he didn't get famous from a show but rather a series of movies, and his DCAU character doesn't show up much on Justice League, but Mark Hamill is the Joker.

 ???  They do.  Look in table at top Regular Cast Members

I know Mark Hamill also voiced the villain in Castle in the Sky.

Patrick Stewart was the voice of Mr. Steam in Steamboy.

Whoopie Goldburg has voiced a few animated characters, a hyena in The Lion King for example.  I can't think of an anime role I have heard her in though.  I do like hearing her in ThundercatLords AMV.  "No king, no king, na,  na ,naa, na naa na."

What I have yet to find in this thread is that Michael Rosenbaum, the actor that was Lex Luthor on Smallville, was the voice for the Flash in JL and JLU. What makes it even more confusing is that in one episode where the Flash and Lex Luthor switch minds Michael Rosenbaum still voices the Flash, but he's really Lex Luthor in the process.
