Warning! This post contains SPOILERS for The Penguin episode 1The Penguin's premiere is now on Max, featuring a collection of exciting Easter eggs, references, and new versions of classic DC Comics characters from the Batman mythos. Starring Colin Farrell who returns to the role of Oswald"Oz" Cobb, The Penguin is set in the immediate aftermath of Matt Reeves' The Batman.
14 Oz Cobb Using An Umbrella A Classic Piece of Penguin's Iconography 13 Walking through the heavy rain, Oz is featured using an umbrella as he heads to what remains of the Iceberg Lounge and its secret underground club, 44 Below. While it's not uncommon for people to use umbrellas in the rain, an umbrella is a signature piece of The Penguin's iconography from the original DC Comics.
In the original comics, Alberto becomes the"Holiday Killer" in the iconic Batman story The Long Halloween. Having been the self-perceived outcast, Alberto begins killing members of both his own family and the Maronis. As such, his murders are a very big reason why Gotham starts drifting away from organized crime as it slowly gets turned over to the"freaks" and more individual members of Batman's rogues gallery.
9 Penguin’s Purple Maserati A Primary Color From DC Comics Close Oz is seen driving a purple Maserati in The Penguin's premiere. This is the same kind of car Oz drove in The Batman when The Dark Knight was pursuing him in his muscle car version of the Batmobile, which was ultimately flipped over. However, it seems as though Cobb was able to buy a new model in the aftermath.

This includes the performance in the movie"Put the Blame on Mame". Likewise, the song is what seemingly gives Oz the idea as to how he can appear innocent of Alberto's murder, especially in the eyes of Sofia who has gradually become more suspicious the more she learns about her brother and Oz's activities.
