☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the second story arc of Tom King's 2025 Penguin series, where Oswald Cobblepot's quest for revenge against the criminal underworld escalates into a full-scale war. As the Penguin's violent campaign draws the attention of Batman and Commissioner Gordon, old allies and enemies like Black Spider and Eric Needham are pulled into the chaos. The collection concludes the narrative of All Bad Things, bringing Cobblepot's bloody crusade to a decisive end.
In "The Apartment," the latest chapter of Tom King’s The Penguin series, Gotham’s streets are shaken by a string of bombings that seem to implicate the Cobblepot twins—yet Batman’s instincts whisper that the real mastermind might be using them as a smokescreen. With Rafael de Latorre’s sharp, atmospheric art and Marcelo Maiolo’s moody colors, the mystery deepens as the line between puppet and puppeteer blurs. The cover by Carmine Di Giandomenico captures the tension perfectly, a striking image that hints at secrets hidden behind closed doors.
In "Good Old Bruce," Gotham’s streets tremble under a string of bombings that seem to implicate the Cobblepot twins—except Batman, ever the skeptic, wonders if the real mastermind is the Penguin himself, planting false trails to throw suspicion off his own trail. With Lisa St. Claire caught in the crossfire, James Gordon on high alert, and the enigmatic Black Spider watching from the shadows, the city’s most notorious criminal and its most relentless hero play a dangerous game of cat and mouse, where loyalty is the most fragile weapon.
In "All Bad Things," the Penguin’s desperate bid to reclaim Gotham from his children takes a deadly turn when he’s cornered—alongside Batman—facing a fate he never expected. With the past rising in the form of those he’s lost and those he’s wronged, the line between power and ruin blurs in a city that never forgives.
