When writer Chip Zdarsky and artist Jorge Jimenez took over as the creative team on DC Comics' mainline Batman book they kicked things off with a bang, and a death. In their first issue, Batman #125, the pair seemingly killed off the longtime Batman villain The Penguin, and put the blame at the feet of none other than the Dark Knight himself.

In the backup story, featuring art by Belen Ortega, Catwoman has been tasked with finding the children of Oswald Cobblepot so that they might be present for the reading of his last will & testament. Batman #126 mostly wrapped this up, revelaing two surprise heirs but also noting that a bird sanctuary in Metropolis was to receive The Penguin's entire fortune.

Living in Metropolis under the name Paul Meredith , Penguin is now the owner of a flower shop, and sports a much shorter nose than readers may be used to seeing. "I just want peace," Oswald, now featuring a blond hair cut, tells Selina."I'm out. I'm not above begging, Catwoman. I don't want to go back. Batman is an addiction all of us have...just let me finally break it..please?" As the scene concludes and Catwoman promise's to keep his secret, Penguin's endgame becomes clear: though he seems to genuinely want to be over with his life of crime, he's hoping his kids can kill Batman and Catwoman for him.

In the backup...Batman has prepared his mind for anything, or so he thought. We go back to his early days and a chilling case that led to...Failsafe!
