Description
As many of you who watched the animated series, Riddler gained a new look after 'Riddler's Reform'. He had no hair, lost a lot of weight, and lost some color in his skin tone. the DCAU Wiki says that this was just his choice, but I think it was cancer. When you look at it, it just kinda.. fits. I don't know if this wardrobe change happened during the story arc where he had cancer or not, but it's kinda cool. :3Riddler Β© DC Comics

I thought the same thing about that look, expecially after I read "Hush", where he said that he had a brain cancer and he survived only thanks a dip in the Lazarus Pit...
I was sorry for him... Γ§_Γ§

Aaww... this is not my favorite version of Riddler, but this is cute.
I have read somewhere about Riddler having some kind of cancer... brain cancer, I think... so I felt pity for him.
However, this picture and title reminds me of his cameo appearance in the Superman TAS, where he said exactly the same thing. XD Not fair indeed.
Great work with the pose and the expression!

Thank you! And yes, this is based on my second costume in the DC Animated Universe. I always loved it.

I never thought about this look reflecting the cancer, but it's an intriguing connection.

Yeah, I thought it was just trying to be younger-edgier, but it's kinda more interesting to me to have it linked to cancer.

I like that concept the best, really. There's just something about the idea of a super villain being vulnerable without the help of the superhero.
And yet still being a stubborn little butt-munch about almost everything.
