Kick ass batman villian that uses a super steroid called "Venom" to destroy anything with brute strength.In the comic, Bane's shining moment was when he shattered Batman's back, paralyzing him from the waist down. This called for Azarel to become the new Batman until Bruce Wayne was fully able to return as the Dark Knight. Unfortunately, the producers of Batman and Robin decided to make Bane into a incoherant retard with muscle, thus people who had never heard of Bane before got the impression he was a ripoff of Frankenstein.
