Robin Lord Taylor recently spoke to Comic Book Resources while promoting the upcoming season of “Gotham.” During the interview the subject of Penguin’s trick umbrellas came up and Robin revealed which one of The Penguin’s umbrellas he’s like to use on the show.
“This is where I don’t know if it was strictly a Tim Burton thing or if this was in the comics, but a helicopter umbrella, all the way. That’s so fantastic and so amazing and something necessarily for him because of his impediment. He also created so many enemies, so it would be a really amazing way to get around and not be as noticeable. You see Cobblepot walking down the street and you know exactly who it is because of his injury. For him to be able to use his tools to be able to work around that would be somewhat inspired and make a lot of sense for the character. Helicopter umbrella, all the way.”
In the interview he talks a lot about Penguin’s position in “Gotham” season 2. You can check out the rest of the interview by clicking here.
