I'm not sure, but it seems to be "Lovers and Madmen" from Batman Confidential #7-#12.

No it's not from 'Lovers and Madmen'. I have that arc. The art style and story is very different to those panels.

Didn't Nolan say something about him coming out of thin air on that sidewalk or something?
He also mentioned Loki the trickster, coyotes in Native American mythology I believe etc.
I love how this character is so mysterious, an enigma open to many different interpretations.
Truly a "self-made" man.
