>Is he Batman’s most forgotten villain?
>Proceeds to post one of his most iconic villains
Probably a bait thread but goddamn
I means he's popular but he isn't exactly beloved like how many pepole here are actual penguin fans I have met plenty of fans for nearly every big or well known batman villans but I don't think I've ever met a single penguin fan before and he's only really iconic as he is because dc pushes him in a alot of batman media he's a character everyone knows and most people like but no one really loves him
>like how many pepole here are actual penguin fans
Me, I fricking love the Penguin.
gotham did wonders for his popularity though, he was arguably the most popular character in that show next to riddler and jerome/jeremiah. penguin also got a lot of love after the last batman movie, i remember hearing a lot of people loving his character. he's not joker tier and his gimmick might not be as strong as riddler or two-face, but he's definitely loved
how many people ever talk about killer croc, anon? Or man-bat?
I think you are completely wrong. Every time he is given his own story and not added as a background character for some other villian shines. His most ardent fans arnt from comics or cartoons. But Live action.Burgess meridith of the 60s batman was considered the star even more than joker or even Adam west. Danny devito in forever has way more fans than jokers Nicholas, it's just they arnt the megafans that latch on to the more cartoonish villian. People would only watch Gotham for penguin. I think the video games do him very well despite being a minor ensemble character.
The Penguin is one of his most iconic villains, what are you talking about?
>Cristin Milioti is Sofia Falcone
My interest in the show has increased
Only low intelligence casuals hate Penguin
No, Batman's most forgotten villain is Crazy Quilt
He's like one the top 5 most popular Batman villains dude.
Nah, Crazy Quilt isn't forgotten when he gets brought up as a joke so much, his actual most forgotten villains are probably one-offs.
The most forgotten villain is that guy that had an obsession with stealing pennies, the big coin Batman has is from that story but everyone just assume it has to do with Two Face.
THEY CAN'T BE THE MOST FORGOTTEN IF YOU REMEMBER THEM
Anon, if you ask people about Batman villains, chances are they're gonna name the Joker, Harley, the Penguin and Catwoman. Then it's Bane, Two Face, Ivy and the Scarecrow.
Which is sad seeing as how the Silver Age put him in contention with Riddler for the role of the Bat's arch-enemy. Before Joker cemented the spot anyway.
Gone are the days where Mr. Freeze would've been an honorable mention
I still consider Riddler, Penguin and Joker as Batman's "big three" villains. Probably because I played a lot of Lego Batman when I was younger.
Joker and Ra's I feel will always sit comfortably as his 2 biggest rogues. Then probably Bane or Two Face to round out his Big 3
You're confusing most popular with strongest, I'd argue villains like Riddler and Penguin are more popular than Bane and Ra's.
You forgot Riddler my dude.
He also forgot Freeze
>arch-enemy tier: the joker
>known by normie tiers: riddler, penguin, two-face, catwoman
>known by people who have seen any batman adaptation ever: bane, mr freeze, scarecrow
>known by fans, requires a google by casuals: black mask, killer croc, ras al ghul, hugo strange
>known for memes/ used as a joke that one time: calendar man, condiment king, kite man, crazy quilt
Batman really has the best villains.
>poison ivy
>clayface
>clock king
>that BTAS-only sewer king
Anon, i can understand about the last two, but Ivy is known just a-okay.
Batman's top 5 most popular villains are Joker, Two-Face, Penguin, Riddler, and Catwoman.
More like Joker, Two Face, Riddler, Mr Freeze, and Dr. Strange.
By the eyes of Agamotto!
Swap out Two Face or Penguin for Harley and it's a good list
I consider Harley a Joker derivative so I don't count her.
This is pretty much the Mt Rushmore of Batman villains right here.
Is there a lore reason penguin is ginger in this?
it makes him look more like a rockhopper penguin
That's not a lore reason, but it could be if they say he dyed it for that purpose.
They've all become forgettable due to constant Joker-wank and the fact they want to turn some of them good.
Calendar Man.
Is there any batman villain that ins't the joker that is not forgotten? You have things like Batman white knight, a story clearly designed and made to be some sort of two-face story and it somehow is given to Joker because else will not sell.
Batman now is just joker and maybe superman will be there too, or Slade if is indie enough.
>Is there any batman villain that ins't the joker that is not forgotten?
the ones who showed up the adam wesy movie
riddler, penguin, catwoman, and joker
and an honarary mention to two-face
and bane, due to the memes
Tim Burton really damaged the character's reputation.
the penguin should be untouchable by the law and unable to get fricked up by batman (unless batman wants to get jailed for beating up an "innocent" guy)
when he's untouchable for batman, that means that Bruce Wayne has to be the guy to take him down
Nah, that's only good for random one-times as "works only once" trick only.
Victor Zsasz?
Man Bat?
Hugo Strange maybe? We'll he was in the Arkham games so maybe before those came out....
>nobody remembers the Pincher already
He’s the most adapted bad guy of Batman next to Joker
Gangster villains without gimmicks are pretty forgotten.
The Penguin is great. Except for the version of Penguin you posted, that's easily the worst version of Penguin. Truly a terrible Cobblepot.
Batman's most forgotten villain is the one we all forgot about. You know, that one who did the things.
No
