Unveiling Magpie: The Mysterious Villain in HBO’s The Penguin

Viewers of episode four of The Penguin were in for a surprise when a new DC villain made an appearance, sparking speculation among fans. While many initially mistook her for Harley Quinn, the character in question turned out to be Magpie, a lesser-known but intriguing figure from the comic books.

Who exactly is Magpie, and what role does she play in the HBO series? Let’s delve into the superhero lore to uncover the secrets of this enigmatic character.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for episode 4 of The Penguin

Who is Magpie in HBO’s The Penguin?

In The Penguin, Magpie is portrayed as the cellmate of Sofia Falcone, a character with a mysterious past. Despite her seemingly harmless demeanor, Magpie displays a strange fixation on Sofia, referring to her as ‘Hangman’ and engaging in cryptic conversations about shared experiences. However, Sofia suspects that Magpie may have ulterior motives and is collaborating with the authorities at Arkham Asylum.

Tragically, Magpie meets a gruesome end at the hands of Sofia, leading to a chilling conclusion for her character. Marié Botha delivers a compelling performance as Magpie in the series, leaving a lasting impression on viewers.

Who is Magpie in DC’s comics?

Magpie, also known as Margaret Pye, made her debut in The Man of Steel #3 in 1983. Initially a museum curator at the Gotham City Museum of Antiquities, Magpie’s descent into madness stemmed from her obsession with valuable artifacts that she could never possess.

Resorting to theft and deception, Magpie began replacing museum pieces with dangerous replicas, leading to a criminal spree aided by her gang of accomplices. Her criminal activities attracted the attention of Batman and Superman, resulting in a dramatic showdown that culminated in her incarceration at Arkham Asylum.
