The Penguin (Real Name: Oswald Cobblepot) was a major enemy of Batman. He was the crimeboss of the Red Triangle Circus Gang, and was even elected Mayor of Gotham City for a brief time. Deformed from birth, He was abandoned by his upper class parents due to his murderous nature and raised by the zoo's penguins.

He is portrayed by Danny DeVito.
