The Riddler: Year One (2022-) #1 Kindle & comiXology

by Paul Dano (Author), Bill Sienkiewicz (Cover Art), Stevan Subic (Penciller, Inker, Colorist) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars 220 ratings
Actor and writer Paul Dano understands the Riddler’s every motivation… As depicted in Matt Reeves’s hit movie The Batman, the Riddler wasn’t simply an amusing eccentric with an affinity for wordplay and baffling clues, but as terrifying a villain as any in the annals of the Dark Knight. Here you can see Edward Nashton evolve into the menace known as the Riddler. How did an unknown forensic accountant uncover the dark secrets of Gotham’s underworld and come so close to bringing down the entire city? This six-issue miniseries is an immediate prequel to The Batman-the detailed, disturbing, and at times shocking story of a man with nothing to lose. Artist Stevan Subic makes his American comics debut, collaborating with Dano to deliver a shadowy and gritty tale of a society’s forgotten man who refuses to go unnoticed any longer. Subic’s recent Conan the Cimmerian for French publisher Glénat has brought him great acclaim in Europe, and he’s about to break out globally with a Batman series unlike any you’ve seen before.

    He did an amazing acting job as the riddler. He does an awesome job writing the riddler! This is a character study! Dano shows the day and night cycle of this tortured character. It’s just fascinating. I can’t wait for the rest!

    I like how he seems like a good guy but just an awkward fellow, even though he is like woe is me. I wonder how he will be driven to break and become the killer he is in Batman.

    The only thing I didn't like was that it was short; I wanted more! I can't wait for the next one.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Paul Dano is an all-star writer as well as an incredible actor
    Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2022
    Paul Dano dives deep into the character of Edward Nashton once more to bring this dark and twisted origin story to life. It fits like the missing puzzle piece into Matt Reeves Batman universe and expands on what made this gifted but helpless nobody finally snap.

    Stevan Subic's art brings an unnerving and jaded outlook to Gotham City and allows the reader to plant themselves in Eddie's shoes on every page.

    If this first issue is only a taste of what's to come, this will be considered a standout for the DC Black Label brand and leave fans hungry for more stories from Dano and Reeves universe.

    EN: As a fan of The Batman movie, I was excited to dive into The Riddler: Year One comic, and it did not disappoint. The storyline offers an intriguing approach to the character's early life, gradually showing his transformation into the infamous villain. The writing is accessible, making it easy for readers to follow along with the plot while still delivering deeper layers of the character’s psyche. The artwork strikes a balance between abstract and concrete, complementing the narrative and enhancing the reader's understanding of the character's descent into madness. The blend of art and story makes this a must-read for any fan of The Riddler or Batman lore.

    FR: Exploration Fascinante des Origines du Riddler
    En tant que fan du film The Batman, j'étais impatient de découvrir le comic The Riddler: Year One, et je n'ai pas été déçu. L'intrigue offre une approche intéressante sur les débuts du personnage, dévoilant progressivement sa transformation en méchant légendaire. L'écriture est accessible, permettant aux lecteurs de suivre facilement l'histoire tout en offrant des couches plus profondes de la psyché du personnage. Le style artistique trouve un bon équilibre entre l'abstrait et le concret, renforçant le récit et permettant au lecteur de mieux comprendre la descente du personnage dans la folie. La combinaison de l'art et de l'histoire fait de ce comic une lecture incontournable pour tout fan du Riddler ou de l'univers de Batman.

    I was looking forward to this and it did not disappoint at all. Great artwork, but the story of Edward nashton is the main draw here and I really like how it feels like something straight from a noir psychological thriller, in keeping with the movie. Paul dano has done a great job in writing this. Can't wait for more in the exciting story arc.
