Over the centuries, the Cobblepots' prestige in Gotham slowly began to crumble due to scandal and innuendo.

Phil could see how his son's renewed faith in a brighter Gotham would need something to light its way to the future. Phil crafts a Bat Signal for Lt. Gordon to use since rumors have already circulated that Gordon is involved with the Batman's efforts to stop crime in Gotham. Jason's pride in his father made him believe that Phillip is a superhero called Signalman who works with Batman. Sadly, Jason is murdered by a blade wielding assailant who has a personal grudge against Penguin and Phil works with Batman to bring down Oz.
