3. The Riddler
(Batman, DC Comics)
Paul Dini is easily one of my favorite Batman writers of all time. And The Riddler is my favorite Batman Villain of all time. So, of course, when you put the two together you’ll get something I’ll love with all my heart.
The Riddler always wanted one thing: to prove he was smarter than Batman. For years, this meant trying to come up with the perfect crime, one Bats could never solve. But eventually, Riddler realized there was another way to go about it: solve the crimes first. And, as a private detective, that was exactly what he aimed to do.
The best example of this was the one-shot issue in which Batman, Riddler, and Detective Chimp all hung out in an internet chatroom for amateur sleuths, trying to solve a vicious series of murders. They eventually solved the crimes, but Riddler was almost killed in the process.
Because he may have reformed, but he was still a total jerkhole.
