Meet Maurice LaMarche at Retro Con 2025!
A special announcement from our news correspondent Morbo…
Please welcome the great Maurice LaMarche to our guest list for Retro Con 2025, September 6th & 7th in Oaks, Pennsylvania!
An Emmy award-winning voice actor of over 40 years in the business, Maurice’s versatility in the field is legendary, and if you were a cartoon watcher between the 80’s and today, you’ve no doubt heard dozens of his iconic voices!
He played classic characters such as Egon Spengler on the Real Ghostbusters (1986)! The eccentric PKE meter-toting genius of the team, Maurice voiced Egon for six years on the show, and would reprise the character in Extreme Ghostbusters (1997).
He also voiced a myriad of characters on Futurama, including Kif Kroker, Lrrr, Walt, Calculon, and sadistic news anchor Morbo the Annihilator! “Windmills do not work that way! Good night!”
And proving he can do it all, Maurice is the cool calculating voice of Mr. Freeze in the ‘Batman: Arkham’ series of video games.
Maurice is also a master impressionist, with hilarious takes on William Shatner, Rod Serling, and of course his iconic Orson Welles impression which was used on The Critic, The Simpsons, Futurama, and was the basis for one of his most popular animated roles…
The Brain! Maurice voiced the more devious half of the classic rodent pair ‘Pinky & the Brain’. First as a part of the Animaniacs series, and then in their own spin-off show in 1995. A truly timeless comedy series, the show celebrates its 30th Anniversary this year!
Are you pondering what we’re pondering? If you’ve been keeping up with our show announcements, you’ll know that Maurice joins fellow voice acting legend Rob Paulsen at Retro Con 2025. Which of course means… Pinky & the Brain reunion!! In addition to individual autographs and table photo ops at the show, we also plan to make available a pro photo op with both actors together. That’s right: Pinky… the Brain… and YOU!
Keep watching our pages, more great guest announcements to come! What are we going to do till then? Same thing we do every night… Try to take over the world!
