Following the Flashpoint, a new version of reality was created with a different history of events.

At some point, he had a sexual relationship with one of the waitresses of his Iceberg Lounge named Crystie with her being pregnant with his son who was named Ethan Cobblepot. Penguin fired her leading to her and her son moving to Virginia though Cobblepot made support payments towards the boy and even funded his tuition to Yale at which point he dispatched his duties to his son. Ethan Cobblepot later returned to Gotham to return the cheque but his father did not accept it and instead told his son to use it but that he had no intention of claiming the boy as his family.
