The Penguin Comics That Influenced The Batman Spinoff Series
In the show “The Penguin”, it’s gangster Oz Cobb (played by Colin Farrell) who is trying to gain control as the new crime boss in Gotham City following the demise of mob boss Carmine Falcone, depicted in the 2022 film “The Batman”. This eight-episode spinoff series, set to premiere on September 19th on HBO and Max, serves as a bridge between Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” and “The Batman Part II”, where Farrell’s character will transform into the Penguin, a notorious villain from the DC Comics lore.
