Another One Shot in the continuing Year of the Villain DC Event comes our way, after last month’s rather excellent Sinestro issue. I’m pleased to see the same scripter, Mark Russell, is back on writing duties as I hugely enjoyed his take on Sinestro. In what could have easily been a throwaway issue, Russell really strived to write a meaningful story and succeeded, and I hope we get a similar payoff here, especially as I like The Riddler. Although a very colourful character with a great modus operandi, let’s face it Riddler has always been second banana, always a mid-level Batman foe at best. I often got the impression Riddler doesn’t really have the heart of a villain, just enjoys the mischief, and that endears him to me. And the name. Edward Nygma. E.
