Batman Riddler Comics Price Guide

Value of Detective and Batman Riddler Comics

Edward Nigma (E. Nigma!) is the Riddler.

Since his introduction in the Golden Age, he's been a vital part of the Gotham City underworld.

To date, his only appearance on the silver screen was in Batman Forever, the 1995 Joel Schumacker flick that was not universally liked.

There are surprisingly few Riddler cover appearances, and not many more stories featuring this classic Batman villain.

We present record sales and minimum values for all the key Riddler issues.

Almost as scarce as Detective Comics #140, but much less valuable. Cool crossword-themed puzzle cover.

These were the only two appearances of The Riddler in the Golden Age!

Seventeen long years passed between the Riddler's last Golden Age and first Silver Age appearance.

The all-pink cover is very tough to find in high grade. (I personally would have chosen all-yellow in a tribute to the first appearance...)
