The Riddler is one of my all time favorite supervillains in Batman history, and really hope to see more of him soon. Just the way he was so clever with the riddle making and always had one trick left under his sleeve was awesome. :)
Here are some riddles for all of you to figure out....
How can one get into a locked cemetery at night?
What is the letter of death? A,B,C,D,or E?
ChrisBaleBatman
04-09-2006, 08:57 PM
Um.....through the front door?
And.....E, because it's above all.
I dunno....I'm just guessing dude.

With a skeleton key, and E, because, just like death, E comes at the end of life.
I rock.

What is the letter of death? A,B,C,D,or E?
The answer is E. Riddler pulled this riddle in an old issue, which took place in a museum.

TIME
The time has come,
winter is here
and those yellow bears disappear.
The time has past
as man looks back with a sigh
and a tear in his eye.
As time is held
boys cross their legs
but of course the toilet begs
As time marches on
Girls loose their blush
and swap a comb for their brush
As time passes
For those held high
their end is nigh
As time catches up
Everyone is equal
when we get to the final sequel
As time turns
Without it we have flour and water
With it we have breakfast for my daughter
As time revolves
How does one turn water and wine
into something so fine
As time runs out
The more in a minute you try and squeeze
the less you can do with ease.
As time ticks
All the time that has past
man cannot comprehend something so vast.

What is greater than God, more evil than the Devil, the poor have it, the rich needs it, and if you eat it, you'll die?

There is a thing that nothing is,
and yet it has a name,
Sometimes tall and sometimes short,
Joins our talks and joins our sport,
And plays in every game.

heres one:
With pointed fangs it sits in wait,
With piercing force its doles out fate,
Over bloodless victims proclaiming its might,
Eternally joining in a single bite.

OK, this is an old Riddler riddle from a 60's Batman comic :
Two men on a boat with three cigarettes and no matches to light them. How did they manage to smoke them?
Noone ever answered this, I think? They threw one cigarette overboard and made the boat a cigarette lighter.
