The Riddler made an appearance in Batman (vol. 2) #21, the opening book of the " Zero Year" arc, where his surname is changed from Edward Nigma to Nashton or Nygma. The Riddler later appears in both the second and third chapters of the "Zero Year" storyline. In the canon, the Riddler is Batman's first masked supervillain and is not only able to best Batman twice, but also takes control of Gotham, causing it to become a flooded wasteland where only the intelligent are meant to survive. Although the Riddler continues to be steps ahead of the Dark Knight, he is eventually defeated by the combined efforts of Batman, Commissioner James Gordon and Wayne Enterprises CEO Lucius Fox. He is later moved to Arkham Asylum. [29] Catwoman: "Eddie, swettie, you’ve confused me with Robin. The big guy and I aren’t all that close."

Get all the keys, and the kitty goes free. Remove the collar too soon, and the kitty goes boom!" —Riddler's taunt After another fight, Riddler detonated a bomb to open his escape route and destroyed the statue's supports to distract Batman. Leaving a puzzle box behind, he challenged the vigilante to solve it and made his escape. Batman was able to solve Riddler's puzzle and the radio wave signal emitter inside. Due to the Batcave having a scrambler installed, the missile was unable to receive the signal, thus not locate the Batcave or fire the missile. Batman ultimately brought the box into Wayne Enterprises to receive help, resulting in the signal being detected. This resulted in minor destruction of Wayne Tower and the death of Lucius Fox. After hearing reports of it, Riddler ultimately deduced that Batman was connected to Wayne Enterprises and that Fox had been his ally. In the later Bronze Age, Riddler was among the villains recruited by Joker to take down Killer Croc. They were defeated by Batman, Robin, Batgirl, Catwoman, and Talia al Ghul [11]

The Riddler was one of several villains who claimed to have killed Batman. These claims were debunked during a super-villain trial, during which the Riddler was cross-examined by Bruce Wayne, who was disguised as Lex Luthor at the time. [10] Most recently, in Gotham City Sirens #1, Poison Ivy is controlling the Riddler, keeping him in a nearly vegetative state so she and Harley Quinn can move into his townhouse and use it as a hideout. When a villain named Boneblaster decides to make a name for himself by killing Catwoman, he takes the battle to the Riddler's townhouse. The townhouse is severely damaged in the following chaos, but the Riddler is freed from Ivy's control in the process. Dismayed at seeing his house in shambles, he takes his old brass question mark cane off of the wall and begins to vent his frustration on the already downed Boneblaster.

[12] In Czech, he used to be called Rébus (literally rebus), later is called Hádankář (Czech for ,,The Riddle Man").Riddler adamantly believed himself to be sane; he didn't think of himself as deranged or mentally ill. When Catwoman asked what Riddler's "problem" was in Arkham Knight, Batman gave a detailed explanation. Please use the 3rd day in your 5 day hire, as the day of your event.

Riddler is first seen during I am Bane, where he serves as the final line of defense between Bane and the Psycho Pirate. Rather than put up a fight, Riddler instead lets him inside, asking him to remind Batman of the War of Jokes and Riddles. We are going to use the dremel with a flat sander, and make a groove in the center of out foam cut out. I did the right side of the groove, and then went over it again on the left side, making a V shape in the foam. You may want to practice at using the dremel a bit first, getting used to the speeds, and how comfortable you are at sanding it down. In Sweden, the Riddler has been known as Gåtan, which is Swedish for "the riddle", and sometimes Gåtmannen (=Riddle Man). In the end, Batman goes off to confront the killer, whereas Riddler agrees to look after the intended victim. After a brief, but expected misunderstanding about Riddler's intentions with the young woman, Batman phones in to announce that he has apprehended and questioned not one, but three killers about their intentions, but gets no answers. Riddler almost leaves the woman to her life, when the lights go out unexpectedly. Riddler immediately concludes that Batman has not captured all of the killers, and pulls the woman out of harms way when a bomb goes off in front of her bookstore. Despite being megalomaniacal, psychopathic and egocentric, at his core Nigma is deeply insecure and emotionally scarred. Having never received the recognition he (or at least believed he deserved) it stands to reason that he pathologically has to prove how smart he is, especially to himself and displays what appears to be an inferiority complex in contrast to his overconfident demeanour. He has made it his one and only goal to degrade others, especially Batman, as being stupider than him with with either arrogant insults designed to lower his victims self-esteem or using the unfounded results from his tests (death traps) as evidence of this. In a moment of complete self-righteousness he claims his tests were for the good of society by weeding out those who are intelligent and those who fail, who are by Nigma's definition "stupid" always die. Nigma's magnificently over-fed ego is never damaged, ignoring that he has been defeated, humiliated and imprisoned multiple times, he constantly believes he will come out on top, never thinking history would repeat itself. He is not above cowardice or dropping his arrogant facade by pathetically pleading. An example is when Catwoman, out of revenge for kidnapping her on Halloween began stealing all of his funds and he desperately begs her for mercy.Emotional instability can make him go into brief periods of extreme aggression. (Mentioning Batman, Riddler's father or something stupid will cause Riddler to lose his temper.) The Riddler's criminal modus operandi is so deeply ingrained into his personality that he is virtually powerless to stop himself from acting it out. He cannot simply kill his opponents when he has the upper hand; he has to put them in a deathtrap to see if he can devise a life and death intellectual challenge that the hero cannot solve and escape. However, unlike many of Batman's themed enemies, Riddler's compulsion is quite flexible, allowing him to commit any crime as long as he can describe it in a riddle or puzzle. He often has two female assistants, named Query and Echo. In Batman Secret Origins Special, Riddler proclaimed that he had four henchmen named "Mark, Mark, Mark, and Mark". In Countdown #42, Riddler tells Mary Marvel that he has gone straight and is now a detective. The two join forces to defeat Clayface, and after witnessing Mary's new malicious approach to crime fighting, suggests that she consider finding a mentor to help her control her powers or at the very least get some anger management. Riddler: "This cannot be happening! Do you really expect me to fall for this, Dark Knight? I know you won't kill me." He plays a slightly larger role in the story's sequel Batman: Dark Victory, in which Batman turns to him to figure out the significance of the lost games of hangman that are left at the scenes of the Hangman killer's crimes. He later showed up as a member of Two-Face's jury during the Hangman's trial.
