the more evil the better

[@CurtisOnYoutube]

So many villains made into anti hero’s now in media. I love that they basically took us on the ride of Victor in the show. At the start we see him commit a crime then just bring Victor in immediately. By the middle of the show you started to warm up to Oz like Victor did and didn’t mind him while understanding the way he is. But just like Victor in his final moments to then pull all the layers back on Oz and expose us how evil of a guy he is, was done so well. Hats off to everyone involved.

They did a good job of making you route for him just enough while he's doing all the bad stuff. Before rug pulling the audience in the final episode making him unforgivable.

[@TheWunWhiteWolf]

Genuinely love how the show fleshed out the criminal world to the point that you see how a guy like Batman is a complete anomaly to them. Everyone is a bunch of grounded gangsters and killers, then a guy in a bat suit tears down their whole world.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

massive thank you for the super!!! it was so well done

[@amo903]

Its a good thing battinson suit is bulletproof cause bodies was dropping left and right

[@tejeda5966]

I love how the penguin fooled everyone, including us, the viewer. (With the exception of the people in the comments, they know everything beforehand aparently) That reveal of how Oz saw that dance with his mother, and the way he sees it, it was the moment he "got his mom back" but the reality is other. We all fell for Oz's charm, but slowly realized that he's always been a monster

[@Jackholiday1025]

Plenty of people predicted he would kill victor early on and especially after seeing what he did to his brothers, so it’s not really surprising. So I don’t think this comment is accurate. No one thought penguin was a good guy, we all knew he was a scumbag, there’s a difference between liking a character and liking the person that character is, people love the character because it’s a brilliant entertaining portrayal but hardly anyone ever liked who Oz is as a person, and now people really hate the person he is. As a protagonist naturally he’s going to be more sympathetic especially when he’s fighting other criminals but having some sympathy for a character or liking some things about them doesn’t mean you think you ever liked them as a person or ever thought he was a good dude.

[@libellum7085]

​@@Jackholiday1025I always knew he would kill Vic, but the way he did it surprised me. Especially since the scene before Vic's murder was one in which Oz showed the most vulnerability in the entire series. But the way Vic was murdered so slowly, so cruelly, so personally, caught me off guard. Oz killed him with his own hands after the boy had saved his life, comforted him, and told him he was family. I hated Oz for a long time now but somehow his monstrosity surpassed everything I expected from him.

[@ihateintroductions5808]

Hmm, I guess "some people are easy marks". Some of us weren't fooled, he did all of this because he wanted to. He was always an unredeemable villain to some of us, especially after episode 4.

Sofia regained the possibility of having a family or a sister. And that is much more important to her. Penguin never cared about anyone, but he got what he always wanted.

[@vokasimid5330]

[@BobPantsSpongeSquare97]

​@theonott681 Sophia fits the perfect mold of being an anti-villain where she genuinely is a bad person, who was shaped that way due to her family, but unlike Oz, she retains a shred of humanity. Where she does avoid harming innocent people and takes pity on others, particularly vulnerable women. And so her finding out she has a sister just like her is exactly what she needed

[@ajstyles5143]

They left no doubt or sympathy in anyone’s mind about Oz. He is who he is always been a stone cold villain. He deserves everything coming to him in Batman 2. What a show🔥

[@ProfessorSnape22]

Phew was waiting for you guys reaction cause jeez I'm still mind blowned on alot of things like between oz and eve , Selina Kyle , the confession of what happend in the tunnel and poor vic

[@Hoodie_HD]

I think Penguin killed Vic not only because he didn’t want any attachments, but also because Vic was getting too good at his job. The way Oz went on about how Vic did such a great job with knocking off the other mobsters. If Vic can pull this off now when he’s still pretty green, then how worried does Oz have to be once he has years of experience? Vic started out as a driver just like Oz, now Oz is the new kingpin and he rose to the top by selling people out and killing them. Sure, Vic might be loyal and ride-or-die right now, but what happens when he gets a taste of real power?

[@danieladusei1993]

That true Vic would sooner or later turned against oz

[@submandave1125]

Agree. In Oz's mind there's no world in which the #2 doesn't want to become the #1.

[@kouroshnahid4299]

Sigmund Frued would have something to say about Penguin's relationship with his mother 😂😂

[@TomTomson81]

Sophia will get out of Arkham quickly and legally through Selina. Selina knows that Sophia was not the Hangman and that she innocently spent 10 years in Arkham. This is then counted as compensation and she is dismissed. Btw. A point that you and many others have not noticed. The mother has made Penguin swear to kill her if she turns into vegetable. In the hospital, Penguin also talks again about the fact that she is now a vegetable. To fulfill HIS wish for her and to bring her to a Penthouse was more important to him than to fulfill HER WISH to die.

[@tiagoalves2056]

Selina*

[@YoutubeCommenter7402]

Sofia was right the most important person for Oz was never his mom it was himself and his fantasy world he created for himself.

[@alexman378]

Doubtful. Selina has a record, no pull, no evidence, and Sophia was put in there this time for crimes she actually committed, such as the Crown Point explosion. If she gets out, that’s definitely not how.

[@TomTomson81]

@alexman378 In principle, there are only circumstantial evidence, but no compelling evidence, that Sofia committed the new acts. Furthermore, much, if not everything, is based on the fact that she is the Hangman, but that's not true. So if it turns out that she is not the Hangman, everything falls apart. What's more, she's not crazy, which is why she shouldn't be in Arkham at all. This verdict would then also be invalid. The rest is then simply no longer credible to sell and she is free to go. Besides, we are not in a courtroom drama but in a comic.

Frank and Matt both would have their hands full trying to contend with Oz, from what we’ve seen.

[@jasmine.matcha]

I always had a feeling this is how it would end. Sofia wasn’t born a monster but Oz was, and it’s been shown time and time again. It’s why she was the scapegoat for Falcone. It’s why she couldn’t kill her niece. It’s why she couldn’t off Francis. It’s even why she decides to team up with Sam instead of killing him while at his lowest. But Oz? He wouldn’t have hesitated if he was in her position. And it’s why he “wins” in the end - because it takes a monster to run this type of game. I honestly feel like death would’ve been a merciful end for Sofia…she wanted to be free and it doesn’t get much freer than death. But Oz knew that, and it’s part of the reason he gets her thrown back into Arkham instead. A fate worse than death.

10 / 10. Loved y'all's reactions to this tremendous show! RIP Victor 💔

I like how Oz was dressed as an Emperor Penguin at the end. Nice touch. Also all his lies tend to have a good mixture of true in them. As compared to Walter White who would just tell 100% lie and it was super obvious.

If you backstory on the riddler. Paul Dano, the actor, actually wrote a three or four issue comic series about the riddler’s origins and how he planned his attack. It’s called RIDDLER YEAR ONE . Its amazing

[@andytheuring3535]

In regards to a Riddler show, Paul Dano helped write a handful of comic books that gave an origin story. They're really good too, props to Paul.

Julian is not in Sofia's brain guys. How else do you think that Sofia got all that information out of Francis without a hypnotherapist? Who was using the cigar cutter on Francis' finger? He's back in Arkham because he's devoted to her so he just. Got his old job back to be with her. In interviews and behind the scenes stuff the showrunner makes it pretty clear he's real, it's just that his character has no reason to really interact with anyone else other than Sofia. Also, given that Sofia's whole storyline is that she isn't actually crazy, but people treat her like she is and that's why she's so isolated from everyone. It would be horrendous writing to actually rug pull and go ahah she actually was crazy all the time and so everyone was justified in treating her like a dangerous maniac.

It's amazing how Oz is incapable of telling the truth. Oz what happened? Sophia stabbed me.

[@innocuousalias6632]

His mom called him a devil and that's what he was. They slowly pealed back just how evil he was until you see him literally murder the last bit of his humanity with Vic.

Therapy by Sophia 😂

Wow, I always viewed Penguin as the one villain that's not insane. He is just a businessman. He is true EVIL

[@sPaCe_NiNjA187]

This version of Penguin…yes.

[@nathanhudson5676]

This is the best comic book show, Love it

[@josephwilliams9209]

R.I.P. Victor. I was literally yelling at the my T.V. Dam, what a show!

[@luliu4572]

You know what they say. The truth will set you free. And now, The Penguin is now forever a slave.

[@Cognizant1]

Even Oz telling Vic in the earlier episode "our names are going to live forever," was complete bullshit. The last thing we see Oz doing with Vic is chucking his I.D. in the river, just to drive home the point.

[@sheischic77]

This episode was a Rollercoaster ride the moment you start to feel aorry for Oz he does something displicable, and you're torn again ! What a show !!
