The Penguin's malicious plan for Gotham has finally been enacted. There will be blood. There will be terror. There will be a power grab the likes of which the city has never seen. Words simply cannot do justice to what's to come. You need to read it to believe it.
The Penguin #11 was yet another spectacular comic but, sadly, has the unfortunate pride of being the penultimate issue of this fantastic series. That's right folks, the next chapter will be the final one, so hold on to your hats because something tells me it's going to be a wild ride! Read Full Review

One issue left, and King still has a lot to resolve, but this is easily going down as the defining story for this underrated Batman villain. I've never seen a book that so perfectly captures the gritty, corrupt nature of Gotham. Read Full Review
Penguins downfall was never a certainty. A likelihood, perhaps, by virtue of a villain generally not being allowed to win. But King never telegraphed his eventual defeat. As a result, the abrupt turn of events proves unexpected and the speed with which the consequences unfold is shocking. The Penguin #11 is a thrilling penultimate issue that makes you impatient for the finale. Read Full Review
As a penultimate issue, The Penguin #11 ramps things up at the cost of build-up. Every character reaps what they've sown, and Batman proves that if he is a symbol of anything, it is one of consequence. Read Full Review
The Penguin #11 sets up the series' climax next month, but struggles to offer any surprises along the way. Read Full Review
This is a series that's stumbling across the finish line a little. Whatever cool or intriguing ideas that were being set up in the first half are fizzling out. This is an issue which sees the final moments of a suffocated candle, just seconds before there's naught but ash and smoke. Sorry about that last line. It's just not a great comic. Read Full Review
DC has no sense of shame to keep letting this poor excuse for a writer ruin Batman and his supporting cast.
Send tom king back to Marvel where he belongs!!
