!Oswald Cobblepot
The corrupt mayor of Gotham who had the Waynes murdered.
----
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Oswald Cobblepot may not be a good-looking man, but he's a damn sight better than the heavyset, and frequently disfigured Penguin of the mainstream comics. This makes sense, as he probably wouldn't have been elected mayor of Gotham with his canon appearance.
* AdaptationalBadass: He's not terribly formidable in a fight (though he holds his own against Bruce), but the fact that he's the Mayor of Gotham means that he's much more dangerous here than in most other versions.
* BigBad: of Volume 1.
* CorruptPolitician: Oh lord yes.
* DeathByAdaptation: Alfred kills him in Volume 1.
* DeathBySecretIdentity
* InsistentTerminology: About being called 'Mayor'.
