Bruce's name is mentioned in the second sentence. (And I can confirm 3, 4, & 8 as Avengers, Crisis on Infinite Earths, and Justice League, if that helps anyone.) 13 is Rom Spaceknight #1.

5 is definitely NOT Dark Knight Returns. Bruce’s name is mentioned in the second sentence.

(And I can confirm 3, 4, & 8 as Avengers, Crisis on Infinite Earths, and Justice League, if that helps anyone.)

Crisis on Infinite Earths 15. Watchmen I'm pretty sure 5 isn't the Dark Knight Returns... it starts with Bruce Wayne racing, which could fit #5, but it has actual dialouge, as opposed to "roaringraringracing haring home on the homestretch now" etc. Though I do think the first line is something about a home stretch. 4. Crisis on Infinite Earths
15. Watchmen

I’m pretty sure 5 isn’t the Dark Knight Returns… it starts with Bruce Wayne racing, which could fit #5, but it has actual dialouge, as opposed to

“roaringraringracing haring home on the homestretch now”

etc.

Though I do think the first line is something about a home stretch.
