The review I didn’t want to write. It’s the penultimate chapter of RIP and with this issue brings two things that you should be warned about before reading further. If you don’t like criticism of Grant Morrison’s storytelling then stop reading. If you don’t like spoilers then stop reading.

Marc-Oliver Frisch writes:

In June, DC Comics’ periodical business was mostly defined by all the things that didn’t happen. Final Crisis #2 didn’t seize the top spot. The new weekly Trinity, DC’s big launch of the month, didn’t make the Top 10. The third chapter of “Batman RIP” didn’t show up in stores as scheduled; neither did All Star Batman, Reign in Hell, The Legion of Super-Heroes, Robin, Blue Beetle, Fables, The Exterminators or Northlanders. At Vertigo, the launch of the new monthly Madame Xanadu didn’t much affect average periodical sales. And at WildStorm, average periodical sales didn’t increase from May’s historical low.

Batman #678
DC Comics
Morrison, Daniel & Florea

Oh I am well aware that this story and this particular comic have people baffled. I’ve seen many of the arguments on the net already about how it references too much of the previous obscure parts of older issues and how it kills momentum issue to issue and on and on. However, I only read Batman during Resurrection of Ra’s Al Ghul and this arc during the last ten years or so and yet I still liked this issue. Shockingly enough I thought it made sense.
