Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) needs some help. Gotham certainly has villains aplenty. There’s Joker (Cameron Monaghan) and baby Scarecrow (Charlie Tahan from Wayward Pines), fledgling Catwoman (Camren Bicondova) and Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor), full-on psycho Riddler (Cory Michael Smith) and the Dollmaker (Colm Feore). And even with the loss of Don Maroni (David Zayas), Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett Smith), and The Ogre (Milo Ventimiglia), we now know that Theo Galavan, in the form of James Frain and his sister Tabitha (Jessica Lucas as future Tigress), are headed to Gotham. Who can a good-yet-starting-to make-questionable-choices detective turn to when his morally skewed, yet good-hearted partner (Donal Logue as Harvey Bullock) just isn’t enough?

To Michael Chiklis of course!

Of course the highly successful Gotham had a panel presence at San Diego Comic-Con this year, with cast members Ben McKenzie (Det. Jim Gordon), Robin Lord Taylor (Oswald Cobblepot), David Mazouz (Bruce Wayne), Donal Logue (Det. Harvey Bullock), Camren Bicondova (Selina Kyle), Cory Michael Smith (Edward Nygma), Erin Richards (Barbra Keen), Morena Baccarin (Dr. Leslie Thompkins), and Sean Pertwee (Alfred Pennyworth). Joining them were executive producers Bruno Heller, Danny Cannon, John Stephens, and one of the DC head honchos, Geoff Johns. They got a surprise!

Check out the surprise panel video and some tweets below.

Looks like another set of villains are coming to Gotham for Season 2! With Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett-Smith) probably dead, and The Ogre (Milo Ventimiglia) and Maroni (David Zayas) definitely dead, there are a couple of evil vacancies. And you know Gotham. It would not be the show and city that it is without multitudes of bad guys (and girls) running around.

And who will these new villains be?

It’s the end of an awesome inaugural season for Gotham! This Batman prequel centers around Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and how he tries to clean up corrupt Gotham city with partner Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue), before the masked superhero grows up. We watched (and so did Selina Kyle – newcomer Camren Bicondova) the parents of Bruce Wayne (David Mazouz) get murdered, starting his obsession with finding their killers and the corruption within Wayne Enterprises. We met the mob players of the town. There’s Don Falcone (John Doman) with his underling Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett Smith), and her soon-to-be betrayer underling Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor). There is also Don Maroni (David Zayas), a loudmouth who is trying to take over as well. We watched Ed Nygma (Cory Michael Smith) go from amiable lab geek to a full on psycho, cementing his inevitable Riddler persona. Many other characters from the DC universe have also visited Gotham this season like the Joker, Poison Ivy, The Dollmaker, and Lucius Fox (Chris Chalk).

Last week’s Gotham thrilled and chilled us. Here’s a recap of “Under The Knife” before this week’s review. Beware! There are a few spoilers after the recap.

The quirky little Ed Nygma (Cory Michael Smith) we know and love is gone. He got a taste for blood when he butchered Ms. Kringle’s handsy boyfriend. I did not even recognize him, and not because his hair was different and he had no glasses on. He was a maniac killer, enjoying it.

Jim (Ben McKenzie) will not back off even though The Ogre called him and warned him. Why should he worry? He made sure Lee (Morena Baccharin) was safe. Barbara (Erin Richards) is not though.
