~ Pyg to Gordon |
Professor Pyg, real name Lazlo Valentin, is a major villain in the fourth season of the TV series Gotham. He is the series' adaptation of the DC villain of the same name.
Pyg is an insane serial killer, targeting the corrupt officers inside the GCPD and dressing their corpses up in pig masks. This leads him to come across detective Jim Gordon, the sole policeman in Gotham who is not corrupt. Despite initially not planning to harm Gordon due to their mutual vision - creating a corruption-free Gotham - Pyg must come to realize that Gordon will keep hunting him down.
He is portrayed by Michael Cerveris.
