He is also providing the art for the two-part Batman story which follows the Batman R.I.P. storyline and links into Final Crisis.

He provided pencils for the sixth and final issue of Grant Morrison'sThe Return of Bruce Wayne limited series. Draw Comic Book Action, an instructional book detailing Garbett's methods for drawing comic book action scenes, was published in 2010.
