stay tuned for a more official shop update post, but in the meantime i wanted to post my batman charms on their own! preorders are open now through 4/9.
Here’s a cleaned up Riddler and Penguin. They’re inspired by the Gotham show. Here they like each other but neither of them are clear with where they stand with the other. So they’re kind of mean at times.
I made an original character for Riddler, her name is Peggy Boniface and she’s his therapist. I was thinking it would be quite fun to have a character that is the opposite of Harley Quinn with Riddler. This therapist is very professional and pragmatic. She appeals to Ed’s sense of reason and always plays along with his games. She has far more patience with him than anyone else he’s interacted with, even staying late to try to solve his puzzles. Ed used to mock her for being too dumb to get them but came to be mildly amused to impressed with her persistence to try to solve his games.
I think it would be funny for Riddler to fall in love with her while she’s feels pretty neutral towards him. But when it comes to confronting feelings he’d be a bit dumb at recognizing it and when he does he’s even worse at flirting. His first thought is trying whatever he did to become friends with Penguin.
the answers to those question - He left it in his cell because he hates getting blood on his glasses - Arkham security sucks he could leave whenever he wants he’s only stuck around because Peggy is nice - Regular Arkham breakout, he’d usually follow every else in the riot but he’s been having a good time. - He’d suggest burying the bitch alive but the therapist wouldn’t be happy with that response ( he could not give less of a shit about Harley or Joker) - He sticks them to the ceiling of his prison cell in the arrangement of actual constellation, he’s only ever seen stars in books because the city has so much smog and light pollution
Guess who just watched The Batman!!! I liked the movie because it’s just so different from the typical Batman you see all the time, He actually gets to be a detective! yay. Though my favorite batman villian has always been the Riddler and it’s nice to see him get some attention, even if this isn’t really my favorite interpretation of the character. As a whole the movie is really solid I think it’s quite good. However towards the end and some moments throughout I don’t really like how they pushed Riddler’s character to be like more like Joker. That is really my only complaint, everything else was entertaining.
I drew a small comic for my riddler, I’ve been thinking about him being a former talon would be really cool. I’ll draw more to the concept soon.
[ID: Illustration of a photo of young Edward Nashton in his choir robes staring and frowning into the camera, the other choirboys next to him with their eyes censored out. There is a large, eyeless face with a wide grin above the photo. The photo is burning on one side, and there are question marks and disembodied eye symbols superimposed on top of it. /end ID]

At the top of the frame is an engraved bat, at the bottom is a rat. on the sides are gothic windows, with a dark haired boy in a suit on the left, and a boy with glasses in a choir robe on the right. in the corners, from top to bottom and left to right, are four different items: a gun, a carpet turner, a broken string of pearls, and a rosary. /end ID]
