What Batman Really Thinks Of Every Gotham Villain

21. The Penguin

Joker Batman
DC Comics

By all means, the Penguin should be about as threatening as a fruit skewer with an unusually large number of grapes on it.

But a mixture of his undying Napoleon complex, his ability to obtain advanced tech and dangerous birds, and his continually growing collection of henchmen makes him a pretty big deal more often than not. Get Oswald alone, and he possesses all the danger of a newborn duckling who has just imprinted on you and thinks you're its mother.

But this is a man with control over a whole lot of geese. And nobody wants to face down a goose unless they have to.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
