Basic information
The Riddler is one of the earliest and the most iconic villains in batman's rogue gallery. As with most comic book characters, various versions of the Riddler's origin have been told throughout the history. Most of those stories depict him as an extremely intelligent man who is somehow obsessed with riddles, puzzles, jigsaws, word games and other riddle-related stuff. He's always in his iconic green costume with question mark symbols painted on the hat.

Unlike Joker, Penguin and other batman villains, the Riddler is either that much keen on bringing about total chaos and disorder, or engaging in organized crime activities. His primary motivation to commit crime is to show his intelligence and capability to the citizens of Gotham. However, this doesn't mean that his crimes are less dangerous than Joker's. His infamous acts include totally cutting off the power and food supply in Gotham City until someone can solve his tricky riddles, leading Gotham to become a wasteland; and figuring out nightwing's true indentity. In the new 52 series, he went more twisted and has participated in many schemes against batman and justice league. This schemes include tricking batman into Arkham Asylum and torturing him with Joker, Two-face and Penguin; and breaking out of Arkham Asylum to take charge of Gotham alongside other inmates.
