Batman V Superman: 34 Easter Eggs & References You Must See
11. The Riddler Grafitti
As (again needlessly) revealed in the trailers, the sequence that sees Batman preparing to fight Superman and stab him with the Kryptonite spear has a Riddler question mark in the background. Could it be an acknowledgement of the fact that The Riddler was initially intended to be included in the film? There's also a tag that reads Joe + Kayla, which some are taking to be a reference to Joe Chill or the Joker, and the bottom of the pillar beneath the Riddler question mark reads Aphrodite - who was of course the creator of the Amazons, and thus Wonder Woman. There is some suggestion that there's a Watchmen reference in a tag elsewhere in the film, but it's a difficult one to spot. It would however perfectly suit the premise of the movie, which basically recycles Snyder's first DC movie plot.
