Character:
This The Riddler action figure was released in 2004 by DC Direct as part of Batman: Hush Series 2 and is based on Jim Lee's depiction of Edward Nygma from the famous Batman: Hush storyline.
Edward Nygma is obsessed with riddles and has made it his trademark to leave clues for Batman at every crime scene. However, in Batman: Hush, The Riddler plays a much more significant role than initially appears. Behind the scenes, he turns out to be closely involved in the elaborate plot targeting Batman and Bruce Wayne personally.
It is precisely this role that makes The Riddler an important character in a complete Batman: Hush collection. What initially seems to be the plan of the mysterious Hush, ultimately turns out to be far more complex.
DC Direct based this version directly on Jim Lee's artwork. The Riddler wears his signature costume and comes with his trademark bowler hat and question mark cane.
The figure officially stands approximately 6 3/8 inches tall and features multiple points of articulation. Additionally, it includes the Batman-logo display base characteristic of the original Batman: Hush action figures.
The sculpt was provided by John G. Mathews based on Jim Lee's design. The Riddler appeared alongside Catwoman, Nightwing, Superman, and Harley Quinn in the second Batman: Hush wave from DC Direct.
