Compared to the scope of, say, Secret Empire, DC's "The Button" crossover is a pretty modest affair. That said, there's no more exciting storyline in superhero comics right now. This crossover pairs DC's two greatest costumed detectives on the biggest case of their careers, as they struggle to make sense of the mysterious smiley face button Batman uncovered in the Batcave and how it connects to the unseen foe who's been busy rewriting the fabric of the DCU. Readers might want to keep their expectations in check, however. While the first issue is well-crafted, it's a surprisingly slow start to such a brief crossover.
Clearly, writer Tom King and artist Jason Fabok are more interested in establishing the tone of this story than launching right into the thick of the plot. Batman #21 is certainly successful in that regard, opening with an unsettling glimpse of a hockey brawl gone bad and creating the impression that a dark storm is enveloping Gotham (both literally and figuratively). Again, this issue is very slowly and very deliberately paced, but that approach has its advantages.
