    The issues with Fabok on art are gorgeous and honestly very good, too bad after this King proceeds to ruin Thomas Wayne as a character and now Williamson has to pick up the pieces.

    The deluxe edition mystery of the button ends here.Batman gets a surprise visit from an unexpected person and all he can do is fend off the foe till Flash arrives.What a way to start a game.The crossover between Batman and Flash succeeds due to numerous factors including the stopwatch fight and none than Flashpoint Batman.The book follows the sci-fi adventure of the duo to crack the button mystery.It is a thrilling as well as motional ride which is worth a take.In the end this is a must read crossover where Flash point Batman is the factoright to look out for.

    even though this was a lot of fluff it was a fairly decent Batman/Flash story,
    though it was a HORRIBLE Watchmen story.
    i do not like this misconception that Geoff Johns started in DC Rebirth that the Watchmen are some big bad group of badasses that have some sort of unmotivated reason for wanting to harm the DCU and steal time away from them.
    it makes NO sense at all.

    Batman was beat to hell by Reverse-Flash, but after a little bed rest and a few band-aids seems no worse for wear.
    i was entertained by the meeting of Bruce and his Father. but not much really came of it.

    this also makes Dr Manhattan out as some sort of villain. that was never his persona.
    at the end of Watchmen, Doc Manhattan said he more
