Paul Reubens (Pee-wee's Playhouse) will plan Penguin's (Robin Lord Taylor) father in an upcoming episode of FOX drama Gotham, it was announced this weekend at New York Comic Con. Reubens played the role 23 years ago in Batman Returns. Tonight's episode of Gotham will feature another familiar face: One Life to Live and How to Get Away with Murder alum Lenny Platt.

In the episode, "Rise of the Villains: Strike Force," Captain Barnes (Michael Chiklis) is called to duty to create a law-abiding task force, with the help of Gordon (Ben McKenzie). Meanwhile, Penguin gets caught up in a favor for Galavan (James Frain), and Nygma (Cory Michael Smith) asks Kringle (guest star Chelsea Spack) out on a date.
