We don’t know yet how far Oswald will go, but Matt Reeves has made it clear The Penguin it sets Batman 2so it’s safe to assume that Gotham will have a new king. DC and Warner Bros., even though this is an Elseworlds series and not part of James Gunn’s revamped DC slate, are taking a risk with this show, which feels very different from your average comic book series. Marvel has become monotonous and harmless, which is why it’s so refreshing that at least one company is willing to step into something that looks different, feels different, and dares to change audience expectations.
Currently, The Penguin is already the best comedy on television.
The Penguin now airing on Max, with new episodes arriving every Sunday, starting with Episode 2 on September 29.
