The Penguin Confirmed Oz Cobb’s Worst Crime (& No, It Isn’t Killing THAT Major Character)*

Warning! This article contains spoilers for The Penguin.
The Penguin did not shy away from Oswald Cobb"s many crimes, with the show even having him kill a beloved character, but his worst was highlighted by the time of the show"s foreboding ending. Played by Colin Farrell in The Penguin"s cast of characters, Oswald Cobb has always been depicted as a villain in Matt Reeves" The Batman universe. However, many assumed that The Penguin would make Oz somewhat more sympathetic given his tragic backstory, yet The Penguin episode 8"s ending proved the opposite.
Although Oz does have a sad past, it does not make him any less deplorable. The writers understood that the titular character is still a villain, making The Penguin"s set-up of The Batman 2 all the better given that audiences leave the show with only hate in their hearts for Oz. This hate was built up over the show"s eight episodes - and likely those of The Penguin season 2, should it happen - with Oz slowly dropping the act of a benevolent, albeit illicit, kingpin and committing several heinous crimes, but the worst of all is not the most obvious.
Oz’s Worst Crime Is Breaking The Promise He Made His Mother Killing Vic Was Bad, But Francis' Fate Makes Oswald Completely Irredeemable Close In The Penguin episode 8, Oswald killed Vic after the latter kept him alive multiple times throughout the show. This is naturally the scene people will point to when proving why Oz is an awful person. The scene comes directly after Vic and Oz have a sweet heart-to-heart, with the betrayal hitting even harder because of this explicit act of violence. All that said, Oswald breaking the promise he made to his mother, Francis, in The Penguin episode 6 is arguably the worst crime he commits throughout the entire show, despite not being as overtly evil.
