good to know!
Story-chronology-wise, we finally have the throughline, that is, Batman R.I.P. -> Final Crisis #1-#2 (he was called in to investigate Orion's death after facing Doctor Hurt in #681, as revelaed in the #683 flashback from Alfred,and then captured by Darkseids forces in Final Crisis #2) -> Batman #682, #683 (Batman hallucinating/Alfred remembering while Batman was trapped in the torture/cloning chamber, which he ultimately escaped) -> Final Crisis #6.
I reiterate:
Batman R.I.P. -> Final Crisis #1-#2 -> Batman #682, #683 -> Final Crisis #6.
Got it?
you need to take LSD before reading this storyline. It's a mess.
DC has a check list on their website in pdf format.

I'm currently picking up all the related titles but I still don't get the story. I can follow the Batman stories but the tie in's are very confusing. I have no idea how they are related to RIP and if it takes place before or after the Batman title.
