* EvilCounterpart: In a way, he's one to Robin I/Nightwing. They're both clever planners, although while this isolates Riddler and makes him a minion, it's what makes Dick a leader.

* EvilCounterpart: In a way, he's one to Robin I/Nightwing. They're both clever planners, although while this isolates Riddler and makes him a minion, it's what makes Dick a leader. There's also the way they both play around with language, though Dick outgrows his backformations as he grows up, with a few catching on in his friend group as in-jokes, while The Riddler childishly keeps using riddles to annoy people. Dick is also the one who solves the riddle in "Usual Suspects," and is the [[ButThouMust set leader of Alpha Squad]] during Riddler's turn as a level boss in ''Legacy.''
