In the comic book series “The Batman,” Oswald Cobblepot, nicknamed The Penguin, debuted as a character who is not a hero. Instead, he’s an opportunistic murderer who expands his criminal empire by distributing a highly addictive drug throughout Gotham City. Despite his criminal activities, he isn’t even the city’s most notorious villain. This isn’t due to his kindness towards his people or efforts to improve his neighborhood, but rather because politicians and wealthy elites were exploiting Crown Point’s vulnerable citizens by diverting resources away from them and into wealthier areas of town. It wasn’t until the sixth episode of the show, titled “Gold Summit,” that Oz forced a corrupt councilman to address this unjust situation.
