Batman Shadow Of The Bat #59 1996

Batman: Shadow of the Bat #59, published by DC in February 1997, features "Killer Killer, Part One: Storm Gird." The story sees Batman pursuing a new vigilante targeting Gotham's criminals. The Ventriloquist, tormented by Scarface dreams in Blackgate Prison, becomes a target, prompting the Penguin to orchestrate his escape. This issue is notable for delving into the Ventriloquist's past, including the first appearance and death of his parents in a flashback, and initiating the "Killer Killer" storyline as Batman tracks the mysterious assailant.
