Heh:) I know. I'm confused, too. I like your idea about thinking of them as little mini-series and for some reason find that comforting.
Um, I'm not sure. I think it's what's going to happen, but I can't remember if I've read official confirmation. About the rest, I only have guesses and they're built on less premise than Damian as Batman!Dick's Robin. My guess is Tim=Red Robin, but it's only a guess.
