"The Riddler is obsessed with riddles, puzzles, and word games. He delights in forewarning both Batman and the police of his capers by sending them complex clues. With this self-conscious use of a gimmick, the Riddler's crimes are flamboyant and ostentatious."

Detective Comics #140 (1948)
Riddler's 1st Appearance
"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 (as shown in
his third comic book appearance). 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."
m
"Unlike
most of the other prominent members of Batman's rogues gallery, the Riddler is
not a psychopathic murderer; a large portion of Riddler's crimes are non-violent
in nature. Batman's direct conflicts with the Riddler are typically more cerebral
than physical and usually involve defeating him non-violently."

This model is a repaint combining
elements from some of my other models and new props and art. It was put together
by John-Paul Cote. He came out quite nicely and I'm glad to add this model
to the other offerings here. I hope you enjoy assembling this pernicious puzzler! | |

Modeling!! The Professor. | ||
