Except for the bat signal in the final shot of "The Penguin," we never got our Robert Pattinson Batman cameo in 8 episodes charting Oz Cobb's brutal rise from mafia chauffeur to Gotham City crime boss. In this short explainer, IMDb tries to answer: Where the heck was Batman? And what can we expect from director Matt Reeves's 'The Batman: Part II' (2026).

Trivia
Several posters and graffiti can be seen on the side of the street while Vic tries to convince the gangs to help. This notably includes a banner for the Gotham Renewal Corporation, the major Gotham fund that was used by Carmine Falcone and corrupt city officials before The Riddler exposed the truth as seen in 2022's The Batman. To that end, Riddler's question marks can also be seen on the walls amid old campaign posters for Don Mitchell Jr. Posters protesting against the police are featured as well with the slogan, "Protect and Abuse?", confirming the corrupt nature of the GCPD, and that good officers like Jim Gordon are currently the exception, rather than the rule.

Goofs
Spirits such as whiskey or vodka do not ignite if they come into contact with lit cigarettes as shown. They need to be heated to about 70º C first to become easily flammable.

Quotes
Oz Cobb: I mean, that's the thing about family. It's your strength. It drives you. But fuck if I don't make ya weak, too. And I can't have that no more. I can't have that shit. I can't. It's too much. Too fuckin' much. I'm sorry.

This is how you do a finale!

Just because you are the main character, it doesn't mean you are a good person, you are just the hero of your own story!

This finale sure as hell reminded us who Ozwald truely is, and that the penguin sure is a manace to be feared!

I had high Hopes for the finale, do to have great the rest of the season has been, and I was so glad that it delivered on all front, with great writing, acting and a burning need to see how things will go from here!

This show represents how you do a Comic Book show about an antagonist, and proof that it can be done justice!

Colin Farrel absolutely killed it as this character, and this show might be one of the best shows that have come out this year!
