DC Rebirth was a breath of fresh air for DC fans. After Flashpoint had rebooted the entire DC Universe with the New 52, fans thought they'd never see the old continuity again. But it happened, with the DC Rebirth one-shot issue reincorporating the old DC Universe into the New 52, with a mystery behind the whole initiative. Written by Geoff Johns, one of DC's most beloved writers, the issue really tells the story of a forgotten hero trying to make his way home; Wally West. A fan favorite character as both the original Kid Flash and later The Flash, this version of the character had been missing for years. The comic is told mostly from his perspective as he traverses the earth visiting his old friends trying to get back. Along the way, new storylines are set up, and the mystery behind the New 52 begins to reveal itself. Four separate artists worked on this issue, Gary Frank, Ethan Van Sciver, and Ivan Reis, and Phil Jimenez. Their work is all good and very similar. I say this, because the first time I read this I didn't notice. This comic is great, showcasing the best the DC Universe has to offer. The actual book is well made as well. Though I don't feel qualified to say this is a must read for DC Comics fans, it's definitely worth considering.

Great read, in-depth characterization and informative extras!
I purchase many hardcovers for runs I love so I don’t wear out actual comic covers. The book is written just like the comic cover of the same name. I wasn’t a fan of the New 52 so I was optimistic about Rebirth’s rebranding Saenz “crisis” moniker. This is an affordable entry into DC’s reconstructed universe. I’ve even had it autographed by artists and writers of the series. There are empty pages perfect for vibrant autographs or sketches.Where this book really shines, which seems to be a trend with DC volumes of late, adds art from the actual variant covers, design concepts for various characters with whom the artist worked with and a well written forward explanation. The epilogue foreshadowes future tie-ins.Overall this book exceeded my expectations for what a hardcover graphic novel is and showed me what should be included. I’d recommend this title to grizzled fans and neophytes alike. It has something for everyone.

I ordered this Rebirth Deluxe with the Button Deluxe and it doesn't dissapoint. The art work of the Rebirth arc is well done and intricate with the settings. Great for basic readers. And spectacular setup for The Doomsday Clock. Highly recommend for first time D.C. enthusiasts.
