The Batman's Riddler is a stark departure from the supervillain depicted in the comics, but the upcoming sequel might just change that.
The Batman: Part II has the opportunity to introduce a very different, and quite exciting, version of the Riddler. Paul Dano's villain proved to be a highlight of The Batman as the film's main antagonist, stringing the titular superhero along with a series of puzzles and riddles that uncovered the corruption behind Gotham City's wealthy elite.

The Riddler's Arrest Frees Him To Adapt His Comics Persona Paul Dano's Riddler was a realistic supervillain in The Batman, but his arrest at the end of the film may allow for the character to take a somewhat lighter tone that could fall more in line with his comic persona. The comic book version of the Riddler is decidedly campier than most of his live-action adaptations, sporting bright colors and spouting various jokes and riddles to stump his superheroic nemesis.
Free from his cling wrap mask, the Riddler is not only free to adorn himself in the signature greens and purples of his comic book counterpart but can also now reinvent his supervillain alter-ego as he sees fit. Having garnered a large following in his original exploits, Nashton could adopt a more colorful, wild, and unhinged persona to attract an even broader appeal.
Brighter supervillains more in line with their comic book counterparts could help brighten The Batman: Part II, freeing the film from criticisms regarding many of DC's recent movies. DC's movies have many problems, including the persistent issue of being far too dark. Although grittier tones tend to be the norm for the Dark Knight, The Batman franchise might benefit from a somewhat lighter tone than previous iterations of the character.
