This trio have all taken on Batman on the big screen.

This team up of super villains is the first in the fast forces for Joker’s Wild set… these scoundrels are in the Batman and His Greatest Foes Forces Pack.

… what figure costs 50 points, has a five click dial, and a trait that grants the use of Shape Change?  You don’t have to be the world’s greatest detective to deduce that it’s The Riddler! In addition to his economical point cost and Riddle Me This trait, The Riddler has several other potent powers and abilities to properly vex any caped do-gooder.  He starts with a special power on damage called Riddle Me That, which gives him a chance to lower an opponent’s attack roll or damage dealt when he is attacked.  When attacked, choose a number from 1-6 and if it shows up on one of the dice, reduce the attack total by 2, if the number shows up on both dice, then also decrease the damage by 2.  On top of those traits, he also has Super Senses.

At 25 points, The Penguin lives almost entirely from his trait, Dealmaker.  At the beginning of the game you place a Loyalty token on another friendly character’s card, modifying their range and attack values by +1.  Any character adjacent to The Penguin can be given a free action to make a close attack targeting The Penguin, and if it hits you, place the Loyalty token on a character’s card of the attacker’s choice instead of dealing damage.

For a hearty 100 points, Mr. Freeze brings some much needed ranged attack and board control options for his teammates.  With 6 range and two targets, Running Shot and Willpower,Mr. Freeze can make the most of his Freeze Ray special attack power, which deals out Frozen tokens to any hit targets in addition to doing normal damage.  If a character has a Frozen token, they must remove it instead of their action tokens when they would normally clear tokens.  Locking down an opponent with this should give you plenty of time to lay out all your best (worst?) ice puns.
