Agree.

It's refreshing to watch a 'good' guy going bad (reason for Breaking Bad's popularity) when it's so often the other way around - the bad guy redemption to good.

As I have not seen breaking bad yet, I will have to take your word on that one, But I agree as well.

I love him so much!! He's so creepy weird and cute in some way!!

I really hope we'll get to know more about him

I love that they aren't trying to portray him as "cool weird". His scenes are just so awkward.

Yes, I know what you mean

I still think he's kind of cute though, it's like he can't find his place in the police department, but he would like to be part of it anyway

I did miss him in this episode though

That's what I like about him. He's offbeat but harmless and therefore entertaining as heck.

Hey babe

Me too!!!!

Did you watch Arkham yet? Cause he was in it

there will be light

Here is if you want to know more about him & his origins

"Life's full of questions, isn't it, Batman? Though, naturally, I prefer to think of them as riddles."
―The Riddler

Quote:

Edward Nigma discovered puzzles when he was a young boy, and he gradually incorporated them into his criminal career. Issue #2 of Justice by Alex Ross suggests that his father physically abused him, which left him with a compulsion to tell the truth (materializing through the telling of riddles), as well as a desire to prove his superiority by outwitting everyone around him.

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".

Sometimes, he is shown to drive a "Riddlermobile," a green car with "???" on the license plate. Riddler also often carries a trick question mark-shaped cane.

Haha, yeah, I agree it wasn't my fav episode either! Though I was happy to see "Arkham" it was very well done!!

And yes, I always love his little cameos!!

I hope we'll get some flashbacks on his past soon! I want to know who his parents was! How he got in the PD

Yeah, I felt like they killed the bad guy too easily

I want to know it too, it would be nice to get an Edward centered episode so they could develop him more

Me too!!!!!!!!! Although "Selina Kyle" stays my favorite episode, this one is close second!! It's like I love him more with every episodes

He's so cute and creepy at the same time!

I like his relationship with this Kristin girl, because she's kind of socially awkward too ^^

Though, not as much as Ed, and she doesn't appreciate his riddles, I wish he could find some woman who actually does appreciate them! I'm happy he's into women though and I hope he'll be getting a real relationship before becoming "The Riddler" because losing the person he loves and the only person who appreciates him for who he is would be a good trigger and a good storyline to make him turn bad, IMO

can i be in x-men and then be in the avengers too?
