What is the name of Batman’s penguin-themed villain?

Batman’s penguin-themed villain is called the Penguin.

The character’s civilian identity is Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot. He was created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger and first appeared in Detective Comics #58, published in December 1941. The Penguin is traditionally portrayed as a sophisticated criminal who uses umbrellas as weapons and gadgets.

Unlike many Batman villains, the Penguin is often presented as a criminal businessman and nightclub owner rather than a supernatural figure. His appearance, formal clothing, and bird-inspired name connect him to penguins without making him an actual animal.

The character has appeared in comics, films, television, and video games. Different adaptations vary in his appearance and backstory, but “The Penguin” remains his canonical villain name.
