Special thanks to Benjamin David for voicing Riddler in this episode. Check out his series on KZbin here: kzbin.info/aero/PLmsQynst4qfF5KHnWjoxGk5be71GzpNBo&si=lXEAZ3VHWhYdVoLl

If The Riddler is smart enough to pioneer his own gaming console, imagine the people in the Nygmaverse have to collect all of his trophies. This playthrough is fate worse than death.

I found the Riddler's Arkham tape very interesting. He talked about the King in Yellow, which I researched and found it reminded me of fan theories about powerful leaders taking over the world. The Riddler is one of my favorite villains in Batman comics, but I wonder what made him become this way. Something in the technology or something scared him, and I want to know more. I feel like your cooking something but I'm looking for a new recipe that will surprise me. I might not get all the answers to my questions, i’m totally looking forward to your next Arkham tapes

If the elder gods want to rock up into the DCU they're going to find it's a bit short on fainting victorian scientists and a bit high on superpowered demigods ready to defend mankind to the last. Eddie probably won't be so smug when Superman smacks his new god out of the sky

[@TheBatfeed]

😂

[@CyberK4]

The King in Yellow can not die. Why do you think that everyone who has seeked out Carcosa has lost their minds? It is beyond comprehension, older than even the universe, or multiple universes; Carcosa is a land of dreams turned into nightmares, strengths turned into weaknesses, where sanity is merely a suggestion and not the norm. The King in Yellow is an idea; nobody can kill ideas, not even the Strongest Man in the Universe. The only true way to fight the King in Yellow is to understand him.

[@samwill7259]

@@CyberK4 For someone on a DC comics related channel you are very much underestimating Superman and the League. It's not the first "unkillable god" they've sent backing

Cause that’s the realm the king in yellow is vibing in, Superman and the justice league handle cosmic threats regularly, but this being is beyond even the realm of what John Constantine and Doctor Fate deal with, for how can you fight the king in yellow, when you can barely defeat the cold indifference of the universe.

I love that this is a loose connection to Batman Forever with the Nygma Box and also heavily inspired by the animated series’ episode What Is Reality I think that is how Nygma is speaking through the radio and his consciousness was “absorbed” into some sort of VR program Also The King in Yellow is such a badass name for a villain and he sounds absolutely terrifying.

So now that this series is finally back, I can finally share this idea: When you cover Jervis, put in "stills" of an Alice in Wonderland movie, in the style of the Walten Files Halloween and Christmas specials.
