With the exception of Bruce Wayne, who was a logical if erroneous choice to be on the list, each of these men had a part in the process that led to my becoming the Batman. These were the men who trained me.

Synopsis for "The Last Death of the Batman"

Gotham police are on the scene of a homicide, when they find that the deceased scratched a bat into the carpet before she died. Back at Wayne Manor, a frustrated Bruce Wayne laments to Alfred Pennyworth that so long as the police are at the Manor protecting him, he cannot leave as Batman, preventing him from finding the Bat-killer. Finally, Wayne can take it no longer, and risks sneaking into the Batcave. Alfred distracts the police, by bringing out a tray of food. In the cave, Batman analyzes the list of the Batkiller's victims so far. He follows a clue to the apartment of a man named Bosch, only to find that Bosch is dead. Batman disguises himself as importer/exporter Mr. Shastri and arranges a meeting with a Mr. Jones, who turns out to be the Batkiller in disguise. Batman confronts Jones, but is given an electric shock and Jones escapes. Batman tracks down the killer, Jerry Sawyer, and stops him in the middle of his next murder.
