    The Penguin #10 is another fantastic offering from Tom King and the team. The pieces are being put into place, and now we ride it out until the end. It feels like we're in the home stretch and I'm excited to see how all the threads tie up. Read Full Review

    The Penguin #10 is poetic, impactful, and dramatic, all dressed in the mundane, of people talking in benches and not scuffles in tights. In other words, it is everything you'd expect from a Tom King book, and De Lattore and Maiolo's art only enhances the experience. If that is what you're looking for, then this is something that you definitely should not miss on the shelves. Read Full Review

    With multiple narration leading the way, Oswald Cobblepots family feud approaches its climatic end. Kings creative approach sells the dark times ahead with strong writing. De Latorre and Maiolo pace out the drama with exceptional images. Gotham had better brace for whats coming next! Read Full Review

    The Penguin has remained largely accessible throughout its run. This issue is the first that is difficult to follow without some background in the series. It doesnt take time to drop much in the way of exposition. But for readers familiar with the series, The Penguin #10 is a fast moving, potentially game changing issue. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Jack Whyte May 28, 2024

    Now that we're past the point of being three-quarters done with this title, we can safely say that the majority of Tom King's "Penguin consists of issues that, while no means poor, are falling short of the prestige crime drama the readers may have initially imagined. Read Full Review
