COMICS: Reverse-Flash And Flashpoint Batman Return On This Cover For BATMAN #22
"The Button" takes place in issues #21 and #22 of Batman and The Flash, and promises to shed some light on the whole DC Rebirth/Watchmen mystery, as does this new lenticular cover...
Courtesy of the Batman team of writer Tom King and artist Jason Fabok, along with The Flash writer Joshua Williamson and artist Howard Porter, the two greatest detectives in the DC Universe unite this April and May to exactly what's going on in the DC Universe since Wally West returned and The Comedian's bloodied button appeared in the Batcave.
Now, a new lenticular cover for Batman #22 has been revealed which teases the return of the original Reverse-Flash (a relief considering how underwhelming The New 52 version has been) and the Thomas Wayne version of Batman from the Flashpoint timeline. What's particularly interesting is that the former's logo is covered with a very familiar bloodstain.
What these two have to do with the Watchmen mystery and the missing years from the DC Universe's timeline remains to be seen, but things are clearly about to get extremely interesting...
