I don’t know about you guys, but can 2026 and Batman 2 get here any sooner? I’m dying to see the women of Gotham take down Oz Cobb. Maybe the movie will give The Penguin writers a chance at redemption for all the crap they pulled, letting him worm his way out of the most impossible situations. Honestly, I hated The Penguin Season 1 Episode 8 in so many ways, but I’ll admit — it was also one of the best episodes of the entire series.
Weren’t they all, though? This series felt too short, but in a way, it was the perfect setup for Batman 2. Brilliant, really. Sofia was so close.
And while it’s infuriating that she couldn’t take down the King of BS, there’s a certain satisfaction in knowing that Oz made a huge mistake by keeping her alive. He might think he’s sending her to a living hell by throwing her back in Arkham, but he clearly hasn’t considered Selina Kyle — or the fact that Batman’s still out there. Seeing Sofia receive that letter from Selina made me giddy.
Plus, Dr. Rush is still at Arkham, which is another win for the Queen. My first thought? Being back in Arkham might be the perfect setup for Sofia to meet more villains she could rally to finally finish off Oz.
But the way it’s turning out is even juicier. Why? Because we know Selina Kyle — aka Catwoman — orks with Batman. And that final shot before the credits made it clear: Batman is back.
You’ve got to wonder if Selina has been keeping tabs on Gotham for him. There has to be a reason.
