The riddle answered!

 

The upcoming Batman-themed series Gotham will include the genius Edward Nygma who will become the Riddler.

 

Warner Brothers and DC Comics announced Cory Michael Smith has been cast as Nygma – described as a “brilliant young forensic scientist working for the Gotham PD with a penchant for speaking in… rather cryptic language. Inquisitive, eccentric and outgoing — yet socially awkward — he wants to be liked, but he doesn’t quite know how.”

 

 

The series will focus on rookie detective Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and Bruce Wayne is still a 12 year old.

Comic book fans know that Batman Scott Snyder has been redefining the Riddler in his Zero Year epic. The final arc Savage City continues this month.
