Chapter 4 and epilogue of "Rebirth" see writer Geoff Johns add less new characters into the mix, but rather develop the stories he has already established in the first three chapters. Artists Phil Jimenez and Gary Frank do an absolutely superb job of grasping the nuanced emotions of the two Flashes' reunion, and Johns just masterfully paces Batman's discovery of Rebirth's final (and somewhat expected/heavily hinted at) revelation.
After all, "Rebirth" knows how to prepare its readers for the DC Universe's imminent overhaul, finding the right balance between explanation/exposition and creating some intriguing new mysteries.
8/10
