The Riddler plays a bigger role this time. He's not the main villian, but he's still got a lot going on. The thing is, "whodunnit" isn't really this Riddler's style. He's completely unable to do anything without leaving a hint of who he is. People have to RECOGNIZE his brilliance. It's pathological. Still, he's pretty well thought out. His big warehouses full of victims in traps does have that Saw vibe to it, except Riddler did it first so there's that.
That time guy. I forgot about him. I actually liked his first appearance the best, before he got the time control powers. I liked the idea of someone who's main "power" was simply excellent timing.
Of course, the best villain would be: LORD DEATH MAN!
Check him out rockin' the black body suit with skeleton markings inexplicably matched with brown gloves and boots.

I hate it when things slip thought my fingers....
A more modern interpretation...

He's even got a theme song.

His special power? Nothing much, he can use yoga to slow down his vitals and fake his own death (later he can fake his death in much more elaborate ways basically on the spot, the ultimate escape artist). His power isn't the thing though. It's that costume and that name.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
