No Matter What Universe...

Description

...you will never beat the Riddler at chess.

I was bored and felt like drawing The Batman version of Kimberly Cross, spawning this picture. (A very familiar scene of Kim and the Riddler in Arkham playing chess- although technically they're not because I didn't feel like adding pieces on the board in this picture but whatever)

While drawing it and coloring it I realized The Batman Universe versions of them have a very different relationship then the BTAS versions. In The Batman universe Kim doesn't like Nygma at all and thinks he's creepy. And the Riddler has deduced Kim's identity (As an undercover cop) and holds it over her head, keeping it to himself but always leaving the threat of exposing her. She tries to avoid him but he always seems to butt into her business, and watching her squirm.

'You said before that you didn't like riddles, well here's one you'll really hate: how many seconds will you be able to survive in here if I let your little secret slip?'

Maybe when I'm finished with the BTAS universe comics I'll toy with that universe a bit.

Also the Riddler looks like he's wearing lip stick but I read somewhere that they're actually tattoos so that's why he still has stuff on his face.

Jim: Also, it turns out he's not bad at applying lipstick, but those black marks on his face are actually tattoos. Matsuda confirmed that during an interview at LoG, and I think that's a pretty neat tidbit.

A quote from an interview, yes they are tattoos... and lipstick? Whatever. xD

On the show itself... The Batman had it's problems but it wasn't a terrible show. It had some really good episodes. (More then a few terrible ones too but, hey, you can't win them all)

Maybe I'll try a Brave and the Bold version too xD I saw a recent episode that featured the Riddler 'Criss-Cross Conspiracy' and I really liked it!
