The Penguin Special (DC)

    (DC, 2024)

Written by Jeremy Adams, Bill Finger, Alan Grant and Jason Aaron Art by Howard Porter, Bob Kane, Sam Kieth and Jason Pearson At first glance, the Penguin may seem like a harmless, if peculiar, businessman with a fondness for fine cuisine, tailored suits, and exotic birds. But those in Gotham’s underworld know that beneath the dapper attire and gentlemanly demeanor lies a calculating and ruthless criminal who isn’t afraid to take whatever he thinks he deserves. And should you happen to be in the way of something he wants, know that this bird is just as deadly as any other raptor. Discover the man behind the new Max streaming series in this special issue showcasing the Penguin’s 1941 debut in the pages of Detective Comics #58, twisted recollections of his formative years from Secret Origins Special #1 and Joker’s Asylum: Penguin #1, and a brand-new, exclusive story written by Jeremy Adams and illustrated by Howard Porter that shows the Penguin’s next moves during All In.
