The Penguin
Do we need to see the Penguin on the big screen again? Absolutely. What sort of a question is that? As one of Batman’s most famous foes, he deserves another shot after his last appearance in 1992’s Batman Returns.
Sadly, over the past couple of years, Penguin hasn’t been too involved in Batman storylines – well, in the comics at least – acting more as a supporting character than a main baddie. Batgirl could be the perfect vehicle for him to shine like the scoundrel he is, though. If it does happen, I just hope he brings back his army of rocket penguins, because those were badass.
It’s easy to see the plot in this one, too. Oswald Cobblepot is a slippery character and he doesn’t like to get his flippers dirty. Having him pull the strings and letting others do his dirty work is his modus operandi, so he could take on a Kingpin-type of role here, where he causes trouble from a distance. So, it’s up to Barbara to put a stop to it. Sounds like a good story to me. What about you?
