Doctor Aesop

Doctor Aesop is one of the main antagonists of the fifth season of Gotham. He is a deceptive and maniacal criminal who intends to turn the city into one big fable.

Episode I: The Wrath of the Shadows
Doctor Aesopp goes with a grenade into a zoo, and bombs up the tiger cage, causing the tigers to escape and attack the visitors. He laughs, and then states that The Batman shall suffer. He then leaves a letter in The Riddler's post box, asking him "Who is Batman?". The Riddler then tracks Batman, who now believes that The Riddler was causing the attacks. Doctor Aesop enters, and reveals that he was actually hired by Oswald Cobblepot to kill both Batman and The Riddler. Aesop then activates the bombs of the building, as he and Penguin exit the room and escape the bombings. Aesop then introduces to Penguin the crazy formula which he worked on with Dr. Strange. He and Penguin are now ready to tear Gotham apart.
