Apparently, The Penguin show is here to save our superhero fatigue

The Penguin.

The Batman spin-off show The Penguin is still on its way, and HBO and Max Content CEO Casey Bloys doesn't think 'superhero fatigue' will get in the way of its success.

"I don't know that it's necessarily tentpole fatigue as much as it is a sameness of storytelling," Bloys explained (via Deadline). "I think the key, even within DC, is trying to tell different stories in different styles, to not try to do the same show over and over and over again. I would say Peacemaker is a very different show tonally than The Penguin. So, there's not a uniformity to the storytelling and I think that helps."
