It’s certainly no secret that Gotham juggles many characters from the Batman mythos and next Monday’s episode, “Mad City: Red Queen,” is set to further many plot threads, not just the Mad Hatter/Jim Gordon one that was the primary focus of the trailer.
While Mad Hatter is featured among one of the most generous helpings of promotional still galleries I’ve seen to date, the ongoing Penguin/Edward Nygma situation gets ample attention. Aside from that gem of a photo that sees Penguin talking on the phone, we get some glimpses at what may be several more awkward moments for him as he just can’t find the right words to say to his Chief of Staff.
Furthermore, a thankfully returning Chelsea Spack can be seen as her new character, Isabella, the current apple of Nygma’s eye. Her penchant for riddles makes her an ideal partner for him, but having known Penguin’s history of ultra-violent outbursts, I’m forced to believe that he may not take too well to having competition.
Before perusing the gallery, be sure to check out the official synopsis for next week’s episode of Gotham below:
