where is Batman? Maybe he doesn't care if the different crime families are killing each other? Something tells me he will be mentioned and maybe some of his actions will be used in the plot but I don't think we will have a cameo.

[@jacobb4795]

What’s interesting is that while penguin has a big future planned for himself he truly enjoys the simple things in life. Like car air fresheners, sunrises, mixing slushy flavors. I like that about him.

[@heinrichagrippa5681]

@@LoveEachDay94 It's an interesting deliberate departure from the hoity-toity, monocle-wearing, high-society douche his character tends to be themed as.

[@thisisroushan_1337]

The answer to where is Batman, was kind of answered for fans in the newspaper bits they shared around during marketing - apparently, Batman's missing and hasn't been seen for 2 weeks. And Matt Reeves says whatever Batman is doing, and wherever this show ends at, that is exactly where the Part II will pick up from. So they'll probably answer the "whereabouts of Batman" when the film comes out.

[@RickyRegal.]

hopefully his disappearance is because he'll be focusing on being Bruce Wayne, instead of the other guy.

[@ROBERT-p5f8n]

Batman is now expendable.

[@MrFredstt]

Guaranteed right now he's investigating and gathering info on all the happenings in the mob

[@MindOfJigsaw1]

In an interview Matt said that after the events of the film, and "missing" for 2 weeks, he's "reflecting" on himself and everything in his life apparently. Makes sense.

[@MrFredstt]

@@MindOfJigsaw1 Tbf that does sound like a Batman thing to do. Just being a recluse and brooding for a bit

[@xTomWolfx]

Sofia... is incredibly psychotic and dangerous in the comics....and technically in this, she's Catwoman's half-sister.

[@dennai7695]

Not technically, literally. It's established in The Batman movie that Carmine was Selina's father, so Sofia is her half-sister by blood, but not by upbringing. In the comics, though, Selina believes that Sofia is her sister, both born from the same father and mother. This has been strongly implied but not fully proven, to my knowledge. Incidently, Sofia Falcone in the comics is like 3 times the size of this TV Sofia.

[@lowrivera]

Yes, in this she is actually her half sister as it is explicitly stated. In Dark Victory, it is only heavily implied.

[@gemmadonnellan-jh9et]

I like how Penguin and Victor felt like a parallel for Batman and Robin. They even met similarly to how Batman first met Jason Todd in the comics; caught him trying to steal the tires off his car.

[@StanvilleBrown]

Good catch!

[@Dookieman1975]

I also really like how it asks the question: what would happen if a 70s NY gangster met a modern day NY street thug

[@Ekhein]

You shoulda seen the grin on my face when some boys were trying to steal Penguin's car's tires and he was able to catch one of them. It immediately reminded me of Jason.

[@liamphibia]

Speaking of Robin, when are we going to see him in the live-action movies?! I miss seeing him as Batman's little protege.

[@moneykenny119]

Sophia is in the comics, she's a serial killer who's carmines daughter. So this captures the broad strokes

[@ADreadedShadowGaming]

She's also called The Hangman for killing cops and her brother (Alberto) was a serial killer of civilians in Gotham. Quick search tells much.

[@LoveEachDay94]

​@@ADreadedShadowGamingshe was featured in one of th3 best Batman comics of all time

[@apoorvanand9627]

Alberto is always screwed over in other media. He was a useless guy in the animated film, a sort of ok villain in the Flash movie and already dead in this series.

[@markriedel1977]

That speech he gives about the old mob guy who was respected, yeah, the Penguin wants respect.

[@zaeakeem]

In the comics sofia is called sofia gigante and she is nearly the same size as batman. Shes strong and feared...nice how they interpreted that here

[@paulhewes7333]

You do what you have to, to get Ms. Milioti involved...

[@Eddie_Gonzalez]

What they didn’t get in size, they’re doubling in craziness.

[@dennai7695]

In the comics, she also was much less fonder of her brother.

[@kevinhansen8211]

Love all the tributes to the Penguin from Batman 66. Oz lives over Burgess Jewelers, a nice tribute to Burgess Meridith, and the purple color of his car is likely a tribute to his top hat and the 66 Penguin's vehicles.

[@vinsanity40k]

Cristin Milioti played Johnny Sac's daughter on The Sopranos years ago. Very small part. I first really noticed her in Black Mirror in the "Star Trek" inspired episode "USS Callister". She's brilliant and terrifying in this. Perfect intimidating psycho look, but really intelligent and not to be F'd with.

I just watched this last night, and I’m immediately hooked such an awsome show, my man Danny devito was great but this is a whole other level this is sick 👏

[@Blynat]

Well Danny's portrayal of the Penguin was highly influenced by the writing and directing. He did amazingly with what crazy material they gave him 😂 . Those frost two batman movies will always hold a special place in my heart. But they are very weird and goofy. But they're still far better than they two that followed them.

[@JohnnyJustice777]

@@Blynat the first batman movie holds a special place in my heart. I never liked the second one. It just felt like a Schumacher movie, except it took itself way too seriously. I mean, come on, the main villain was literally raised by penguins in the sewer and that's the movie they want to make dark and gritty. Honestly, I liked batman forever more than returns and considering some of the deleted scenes, I'm sad it didn't go the way the director wanted. I liked those scenes

[@derps0n839]

The penguin always has hidden weapons, like the air freshener.

People really wanted to sleep on this show, but I could tell it had potential from the start! Looking forward to seeing where it all goes

[@artry93]

They lose, or maybe they would give it a tryout in the future. I only watched because I like Colin's The Penguin in the Batman (2022), which I'm happy with the self-centred miniseries or shows with this ground, street level, gritty with mature content alongside fims and shows from DC's The Joker (2019), Joker 2 (2024), Marvel/former Neflix/Disney + Daredevil (2015 - 2019) and The Punisher show (mid 2010s) when it come to netural, antiheros and villians for adults only. Hopefully, I will see the full trailer of Daredevil: Born Again (March 2025) on YT in a few months this year.

Don’t get me wrong, Colin Farrell is doing great work as Oswald. His line delivery is great and he really disappears into the role. But, man, Cristin Milioti is stealing every scene she’s in.

In ONE episode. Disney Star Wars has entire seasons that tell less story.

Not sure if it's intentional but Vic's character seems a lot like a turn on Jason Todd in comics. Jason was trying to steal the batmobile's rims when batman catches him and takes him under his wing, eventually becoming the 2nd Robin. Also, come on, Oz intending to kill him with a crowbar? Jason Todd written all over it. Nice Easter egg if true.

[@TomTomson81]

Sophia is in the comics. Her brother also as the Calendar Man serial killer. Later it turned out that it was Sophia. She killed police officers on the holidays of each month. She was then locked up in Arkham. As Batman explained in "The Batman" at the very beginning of the prologue, the city is huge and he can't be everywhere. This alone explains his absence. In addition, Batman is still at the beginning of his career at this time and has mainly taken care of petty criminals and since the end of Batman there has been a new focus on actually helping people in need. All this explains his absence from the big fish. But I think the biggest clue was mentioned at the beginning of this episode. Batman has been missing for a few weeks. So he was generally not seen after the events. Maybe he's on a mountain tour to a certain Raas Alghul. He is a millionaire, there are umpteen reasons to have left the city to do things somewhere in the world that will help his Batman move forward. He is still at the beginning and is learning.

I'm wondering if Steven has seen a show like Daredevil (2015 - 2019) and the 2003 film version. Plus, some 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s and some 2010s to 2019s in the action genres (included crime drama, legal, gangster, military and thriller genres combined) in shows, tv shows and games have this cinematography which worked pretty good with the storytelling and emotional. And I can see this specific gritty, mature content and street level aesthetics of this show work well with former Neflix show Daredevil (2015 - 2019) season 1 and 3 and the Punisher show included the 2004 movie based on the production and visual inspiration from the team with the genres that I mentioned and loosely based on the comic series. Besides the creative overhaul of the upcoming Daredevil: Born Again (March 2025) in 2023 and now solved, I'm looking forward to it and agree with Steven on the aesthetics and mature content with engaging narrative in this show. Since 2019 to current I have increased my interested to support DC's The Joker (2019) again, The Joker 2 (Oct 2024), The Batman's Colin Ferrell character in DC/HBO/Sky Showtime's Penguin (2024) and Marvel's Daredevil (2015 - 2019) included the Born Again (2025), the Punisher show and John Wick films and some recommissioned based on their colour psychology & aesthetics in the cinematography, storytelling with their netural, villains and anti heroes with moral ambiguity and compelling backstory with brutality fighting choreography and heart to heart moments of humanity. And I sometime craving for adult only content sometimes. Also, I am looking to the upcoming film version based on the 1920s film and Gothic Horror Nosferatu (2024) Dir Robert Eggers, neither released Nov nor Dec 24 based on the trailer. I am looking forward to this approach for their mature adults. No hate from me with the PG PG12/PG13 contents. But I'm tired of them since the 2020s with family-friendly even the adult undertones don't working sometime.
