While The Penguin starts off as the type of show we expect it to be, giving layers to Oz Cobb that helps humanize and understand him in a way the film that preceded this simply couldn't, it slowly reveals itself to be something much more damning, impactful and straight up tragic as we see the true beginnings of who will become one of Gotham City's most notoriously monstrous and despicable figures in his most dominant fashion to date. Yet in…
