Publisher Description
Question: What wicked genius leaves clues for The World’s Greatest Detective to lead to his capture, only to arrogantly flaunt how he can cleverly elude it? Answer: The Riddler. The most madcap exploits of Gotham’s resident puzzling prodigy are collected here in BATMAN ARKHAM: THE RIDDLER! As a criminal mastermind with a propensity for perplexity, Edward Nygma has historically been Batman’s utmost intellectually astute adversary. With a wayward acumen for wreaking havoc, his wits are unmatched. Almost. BATMAN ARKHAM: THE RIDDLER collects some of the villain's greatest stories by some of the industry's greatest creators, including Scott Snyder (BATMAN), Gardner Fox (JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA), Len Wein (SWAMP THING), Bill Finger (DETECTIVE COMICS), Jim Aparo (THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD), Paul Dini (GOTHAM CITY SIRENS) and many more!

Riddled with repeats
Not much here that hasn't been digitally published before, while skipping over Riddler stories still awaiting digital debut. Detective #142 is a rarity included, but little else is new to the digital landscape. And even if the intent was to create a collection rather than offer new digital material, there are many excellent digitally reformatted Riddler tales skipped over that could easily have been included. Another example of DC's publishing group appearing too unfamiliar with their source material to create a good collection (and, yes, that IS very strange).
