The Riddler: Year One #4
After a shocking discovery that unleashes a primal scream, we are sent back into Edward Nashton’s past. Like drifting through a nightmare, we experience Edward’s traumatic upbringing, beginning with an abandoned baby howling on the steps of the Gotham Orphanage. Through the filter of Edward’s memories, we experience his brutal past, but also learn about a once-possible hope—a hope that was dashed and that led to his lifelong obsession with and hatred of Thomas Wayne.
Actor Paul Dano (The Batman) and artist Stevan Subic continue the origin of the Riddler, leading up to his appearance in Matt Reeves’s epic film.

Harley Quinn #29, Tim Drake: Robin #8, and The Riddler: Year One #4 will be on shelves and digital platforms April 25, 2023 from DC Comics.
Hardly Quinnpool
One of the worst Harley runs ever. The art and writing are pure trash. This is NOT Harley Quinn, it’s a completely different character sharing the same name. Sickening.
