Ratings and reviews

Great stories straight from the event of Flashpoint. Other characters alteration right beside the main timeline. Everything we knew are changing, worth to collect before or even after you have read Flashpoint.

The first section is by far the best and most interesting part of the book. The art in the first book is superb!

The backstory of Batman got me in the feels and the other stories were good as well. Just enjoyed the read and that it was wrapped up in mystery.
