Who Is Sofia Falcone? Discover The Next Batman Villain From The Penguin Series

 

The Penguin: Sofia Falcone Shakes Up Gotham

The Batman movie from 2022, with Robert Pattinson as a dark and detective-focused Batman, left fans wanting more. Now, "The Penguin" spin-off series, starring Colin Farrell, is here to continue the story. Gotham City is in chaos after The Riddler's attacks and the death of crime boss Carmine Falcone. This has created a power struggle in the criminal world.

Sofia Falcone, Carmine's daughter, played by Cristin Milioti, is back in town. She's also known as "The Hangman," and her return is going to change everything. Her story in the show is different from the comics, making it even more exciting.

Sofia's Past and Revenge

In the show, we learn Sofia was in Arkham Asylum for serious crimes. Now she's out and wants revenge. The show hasn't fully explored her past as The Hangman yet, but we know she's a major player in this new series, ready to become a powerful crime boss herself.

Sofia in the Comics

• The Long Halloween: This comic story has Batman investigating a killer who targets the Falcone family on holidays. Sofia, Carmine's oldest daughter, is put in jail but gets out to help solve the murders. Surprisingly, her brother Alberto turns out to be the killer. The story also shows how Harvey Dent becomes Two-Face, and he ends up killing Carmine. Sofia wants revenge and teams up with Two-Face, but after a fight with Catwoman, she falls out of a window.
• Dark Victory: This story reveals that Sofia survived the fall but is now paralyzed. She takes control of the Falcone family while a new killer, The Hangman, starts killing people connected to the old holiday murders. It turns out Sofia is actually The Hangman, pretending to be paralyzed to get rid of her enemies.
