Description
Gotham’s elite meets its reckoning in Detective Comics #824, a sharp and stylish one-shot from writer Paul Dini, with art by Don Kramer and Wayne Faucher. In this standalone story, The Penguin reinvents himself as a seemingly legitimate businessman — but Batman isn’t buying the clean image.
Set against the dark undercurrent of Gotham’s high society, this issue delivers a clever, suspenseful investigation that pits the World’s Greatest Detective against one of his oldest foes. The noir-inspired cover captures the tone perfectly, with Batman looming above a smug Penguin — cigarette in hand, secrets behind his grin.
Ideal for readers who love tightly written detective tales, classic villain spotlights, and self-contained Batman stories.
