The 1960s Riddler Costumes

In the 1960s Batman Series, the Riddler was played by Frank Gorshin and John Astin. The Riddler was an arch-nemesis of Batman. Riddler is the original clue-dropping criminal. He delights in challenging Batman and Robin with his puzzles that he leaves behind at crime scenes, always pointing to where he will be next.

Frank Gorshin's Riddler had 2 riddler costumes that he would wear. One was simply the green jumpsuit with the large question mark in the middle of it, and the other was a suit with the bowler hat and white gloves.

John Astin's Riddler character only wore the green jumpsuit, but his Riddler character however introduced the Riddler's cane which was basically a stick with a question mark as the handle. Finding a Riddler costume may be a little harder than you think, so you can buy a green spandex bodysuit, or you could always take a green blazer, using a black marker draw your own question marks in different directions on it or make the question marks out of black material.
