Batman/The Flash: The Button Deluxe Edition by Joshua Williamson, Tom King
5.0
I spent half this book making a high-pitched screaming noise. Which meant I really liked it, and it was blowing my mind with the things it was doing.
The story went from very intriguing to downright insane, and looks like it's setting something up that will be even more insane. Considering the well-known origin of the titular button, it won't be too surprising who that may involve. But I'm very excited. This very seamlessly tied together the main universe, aspects of the Flashpoint universe, and something relative to the Watchmen universe all together, and that is really something exciting to read.
There was also some really strong emotional beats in this story relative to Batman/Flashpoint Batman. I got a little choked up, and that doesn't happen often when I'm reading Batman comics.
So, a very good story, especially if you're familiar with Watchmen and Flashpoint. The art was good, too!
