Whilst it is a good starting point, I think it needs more work to make it truly unique.

At the moment it bears a little too much resemblance to several other Batman stories that have gone before, such as:

Year One: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman:_Year_One

Earth One: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman:_Earth_One

Zero Year: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman:_Zero_Year

Yours seems to be based more on Earth One than Year One, I think.

One thing all of these origin stories have in common is that they all choose to begin their story at the point shortly before Bruce becomes The Batman. Personally I would like to see a story showing Bruce's training around the world, starting with him leaving Gotham City after quitting the FBI, and meeting his various mentors, Harvey Harris, Ted Grant , Henri Ducard , Giovanni Zatara , David Cain , Tsunemoto , Kirigi , and going through his training that will eventually lead him to become the Batman.

But that's just me :)
