"Batman R.I.P." is over - and now, DC Comics reveals that December's BATMAN #682 and #683, featuring the story "Last Rites," both tie into FINAL CRISIS.

Written by Grant Morrison, with art by Lee Garbett and Trevor Scott, a cover by Alex Ross and a variant cover by Tony Daniel, "Last Rites" begins in BATMAN #682 (SEP080111) and spins out of events of FINAL CRISIS #2.

"Last Rites" concludes this month in BATMAN #683, by the same creative team, with a story that feeds into the upcoming FINAL CRISIS #6.
