This was a good issue that I wish was slightly more interesting. Penguin just isn't very compelling as a character.
I really liked how Rosenberg wrote Penguin, I'm glad someone at DC remembered this is one of the greatest Gotham villains and his mind is one of his greatest assets, he's more than "waaugh, waaugh, I'm going to shoot my umbrella now".
