Hype Following DC Rebirth, Batman finds the Watchmen
Button within the Batcave. Now the search begins to discover where the Button
came from with the help from the Flash. The story brings back the Reverse Flash
who remembers the events from Flashpoint, the Thomas Wayne Batman, and the
return of Jay Garrick the Golden Age Flash.
Rehash After obtaining the
Psycho Pirate’s mask from Bane, the mask and the Button interact with one
another attracting the Reverse Flash who beats Batman down. The Reverse Flash
takes the Button and disappears then reappears after seeing the face of God. He
is reduced to bones as the Flash arrives to discover a defeated Batman and the
death of the Reverse Flash.
Both
Batman and the Flash use the Cosmic Treadmill and discover past lives and end
up in the Flashpoint Universe with Thomas Wayne.
Feedback Anticipation has
been building up with this event however little answers are provided as the
series comes to a close. The visitation to the Flashpoint Universe is one of the highlights of the Button where we see both Thomas and his son interact with one another. Thomas tells his son let the Batman die and become a father like he never was. The emotional impact gives the series weight as it heads towards the conclusion. The story leads to Doomsday Clock available in November 2017.
