Riddler is a student at Super Hero High.
History
Background
Edward Nigma is originally from Gotham City along with his fellow citizens Harleen Quinzel, Pamela Isley, and Selina Kyle, and his main passion has always been riddles and enigmas. When his class took a field trip to S.T.A.R. Labs, with Dr. Karen Lou Faulkner as their tour guide, he tells Dr. Faulkner a riddle: "If I have it, I don't share it. If I share it, I don't have it. What is it?". When she replies that she does not know, he says that the answer is "a secret". This happened shortly before Pamela got her powers.[1]
For his part, Edward at some point assumed his new identity as the Riddler and would attend Super Hero High, where he is one of the regular students.
Riddle of the Heart
The Riddler leaded Batgirl, Flash and Hawkgirl through a series of riddles, first by unleashing cats they need to round, then to a clock tower where they save a citizen tied from the hands, and then to the Centennial Park flower beds, where the Flash and Hawkgirl get caught in a net. Batgirl finally encounters him at the park, where he reveals that his series of riddles was his way to ask her out to the dance. She rejects him and arrests him for breaking and entering, kidnapping and assault in relation to the crimes he committed when setting up his riddles.[2]
