Completely inspired from Punisher Kills the Marvel Universe.
Lets say that Punisher, for whatever reason, decides to take out every hero (and/or villain) in DC Universe one at a time.
Punisher gets YEARS of preptime. Every time he defeats one of them, he takes their resources, whatever he is able to take, and uses them in the next fight.
Question
Can he take out the following (not specifically in this order) : 1. The Atom
2. Steel
3. Zauriel
4. Plastic Man
5. The Flash
6. Martian Manhunter
7. Green Lantern
8. Wonder Woman
9. Superman
10. Dr. Fate
11. Batman
12. Aquaman
13. Lex Luthor
14. Captain Marvel
15. JSA
+ Anyone else in the DC Universe.
And if so, how would he defeat them?
This is COMPLETE one-sided Prep for Punisher. None of them knows he is hunting them down.
Although a lot of PIS and CIS may have to be involved, if he somehow got a hold of Batman's files or Prometheus's helmet, he would actually stand a slight chance at doing it.
Just like the What If issue where he killed the Marvel heroes he would need wealthy powerful investors who wish to see these characters be killed and a plan to acheive it....an evil Batman if you will to supply him the artifacts and stratagems to pull off the things previous posters have supplied.
He would actually do pretty well if he has the right equipment. The only reason why hes not a top strategist is because he lacks the technical know how of people like Batman, give him the right tech and hes a top tier strategist. Im not sure what YEARS is but that seems to specify a long time in which he can arm himself.

I think Punny would have to be smart about who he kills and in what order. He should try and gun for Batman first, because if he starts killing other guys and Batman catches on I don't see Punisher eluding Batman for long.

I'm not underestimating anything, I'm just stating that Batman is probably the best non-superpowered tracker in the DCU and its greatest detective. Punisher will need to establish some pretty hefty connections to secure the necessary equipment and resources to take down the DCU's greatest heroes and that's going to leave a paper trail for Batman to follow.
Despite appearances to the contrary you can't just buy (for instance) kryptonite on a street corner, he'd probably have to take it from Luthor (very difficult) or hit up Star Labs. Either one would leave a serious trail for Batman to follow.
