The Penguin : le chef-d'œuvre DC Comics que tout fan d'art geek doit voir - MoGA

The Penguin: The DC Comics Masterpiece Every Geek Art Fan Must See

I watched The Penguin , and I have to say that I started it without much conviction. It's not that I had any preconceptions, but I didn't expect anything exceptional. Honestly, I started it between noon and two, with a Japanese takeaway, just to take a look.

Well… What a slap!

I'll try not to get too excited, but honestly, The Penguin is the best thing I've seen since The Dark Knight . And yes, I know, it's probably going to trigger reactions in the comments, but I'm holding on. This spin-off of The Batman universe starring Colin Farrell is a real gem.

Colin Farrell, Unrecognizable

Let's talk about Colin Farrell. His performance as Oswald Cobblepot, aka The Penguin, is simply incredible. Even knowing that it's him under that makeup, I still can't recognize him. It's a total transformation, both in his appearance and in his acting.

The Penguin above the Joker?

And here I'm probably going to get my knuckles rapped, but I'll say it anyway: I think Colin Farrell's performance as the Penguin is above Joaquin Phoenix's as the Joker. Yes, that's said.

Why you should watch

If you haven't seen it yet, I really encourage you to go for it. This isn't just a spin-off series, it's a work in its own right, with tense scenes, complex characters, and a dark atmosphere that recalls the best moments of the Gotham universe. To learn more about the series and its importance in the DC universe, I recommend you take a look at this article on GamesRadar .

Conclusion

Anyway, I won't give too much away, but if you're looking for something to binge-watch this weekend, The Penguin is a show I highly recommend. See you tomorrow for more geek news! Ciao!
