Oh and Sava, to answer your question, I did what any intelligent person would do when Batman is on the loose and Arkham is being torn up by bumbling super villains: I went to my room and took a nap.

RIDDLE ME THIS, AV CLUB!

In case you all missed it (and even I nearly did!) @joaquinstick:disqus got the correct answer. Comfort yourselves with the thought that even though you failed, at least you failed in a spectacularly humiliating fashion.

We have a winner! And on second effort, no less! I'm kind of relieved, actually, because if no one had gotten it I'd have to come up with something to steal from Harvey Bullock, and that's just a Hobson's choice.

Did that one already, Sam. Try to keep up.

And depression doesn't hurt? I know some people in Arkham who would violently disagree with you, my friend.

Oh, you have no idea. The fun part is tricking them into fighting each other!

Hah! Everyone is wrong! The answer is, of course… The Thin Man! Haaaaahahahaha!

He's an ignorant, tiresome ass either way, so I can't say that I care.

You rang?

We have a winner! I don't have a prize for you, since I wasn't expecting anyone to actually read today's writeup, but take a moment to remind yourself of the simple, ineffable joy of being alive!

RIDDLE ME THIS, AV CLUB!

No, you're simple because you think denigrating comic books will somehow endear you to a comic book villain.

Bah, I don't know why I bothered coming back when no one even tries answering the riddle anymore (except Sheltie, sort of). It's a simple anagram: "I don't enrage them" unscrambles into "the demon Etrigan."

Of course not, it's in Georgia.

Ongoing. Further developments as events warrant.

WRONG! The answer is… on the cover!
