Summary
You might not believe me , but I ’m almost sure that theRiddleris about to become the next leader of the Court of Owls . Despite all ofBatman’sefforts , the Court of Owls still lurk in the shadows and do everything they can to ensure Gotham City stays execrable , and now they ’re going directly after Batman — thanks to the Riddler .
The Riddler has n’t been amajor player in Batman recently , but he has been in the shadows , appear now and again to on the face of it set up something peachy . The Riddler was one of the few people put into a machine by Daniel Captio to make the Riddler into something more — but what that fee-tail , we have n’t precisely seen yet . But I think it could pass to a massive modification in the character , thanks to Modern detail from theBatman#155 ingathering , which is part of the same trial as Riddler ’s most late visual aspect .

After the disgraceful events of the last issue , Batman is reeling ! But the investigating is n’t over just yet ! The Court of Owls is intent on demolish Bruce Wayne ’s life , while Commander Star stay to stoke the flames of civil unrest in Gotham City ! It all heat up up in the unforgettable new chapter of “ The Dying City ” !
Whatever Captio did to the Riddler seems to have given him a fresh ambition , as the ingathering and master covering fire forBatman#155 evoke that the Riddler is the new drawing card of the Court of Owls . This allot the Riddler near infinite power and resource over Gotham City , and he ’s using it to destroy Batman .
One of DC’s most iconic heroes, Batman is the vigilante superhero persona of billionaire Bruce Wayne. Forged by tragedy with the death of his parents, Bruce dedicated his life to becoming the world’s leading martial artist, detective, and tactician.

The Joker and Batman ’s former teacher take away an interest in the Riddler , set the Prince of Puzzlers up for a dramatic change to his animation .
The Riddler Is Batman’s Next Big Villain
It’s Possible He’ll Lead the Court of Owls
I reckon that theRiddler has always been one of Batman ’s more underrated villains . He ’s hyper - intelligent and always has a caper up his arm . The only matter Riddler has really lacked is his ability to break detached from his need to leave behind clues and resource to truly fulfill what he wants . If the Riddler does become the new Court leader , both of these trouble are secure , as he would have the full resources of the Court of Owls . And , ever since being commute by Captio ’s machine , he seems much more challenging and driven . With the Court of Owls under his command , theRiddler would have everything he needsto predominate Gotham City .
The Court of Owls have dedicate themselves to destroying Bruce Wayne ’s living .
Another major clew that makes me thinkthe Riddler is the next bountiful Court threatis that he knows exactly who Batman is . While theCourt of Owls is a major secret societyand likely knew who Bruce was , they never seemed to go after Bruce Wayne specifically ( with the only exception being the invasion of Wayne Manor duringNight of the Owls ) . Even still , that was more to toss off Batman and not necessarily ruin anything interrelate to Bruce Wayne . The solicitation reveals that the Court of Owls have dedicated themselves to destroying Bruce Wayne ’s spirit , and it seems they ’re doing so under the counselling of the Riddler .
Is the Riddler the New King of the Court of Owls?
Batman#155 Could Give Us Answers
Currently , the major riddle I have yet to puzzle out is precisely how the Riddler bring in ascendance over the Court of Owls . With his intelligence , it would n’t be difficult for him to give away the surreptitious companionship , but on the nose why they would decide to begin taking orders from him is unknown . The Court of Owls has never had great leading , with their leader mostly being nameless characters that are never hand their time to shine . It ’s potential that DC finally realise the way to make the Court of Owls suffer out more is to hitch them to an iconicBatmanvillain — like theRiddler .
