In a four-part mini-series “The Button” coming April 19 and starting with issues #21 and #22 of Batman and The Flash, the two Justice League members investigate the bloodied smiley face button uncovered in the Batcave last summer in DC Universe: Rebirth #1. The button is an icon from Alan Moore’s 1988 seminal graphic novel Watchmen, worn by the government-sanctioned mercenary The Comedian whose death kicked off a killing spree of superheroes.
