Bane-The-Dark-Knight-Rises-1

Bane from The Dark Knight Rises

Bane, like most Batman villains, is very calculated. He is always a few steps ahead. He uses Batman’s strengths against him and is able to overpower him physically, breaking his back and leaving Batman in one of his most dire situations. Despite being physically strong, he needs his mask to breathe and losing it can land him in trouble. Bane is dangerous because he knows how to get what he wants and is willing to do whatever it takes for his cause.

Strengths: Super strong; Ability to lead people; Grand plans for domination.

Weaknesses: Needs his mask to breathe; Has a host of silly voices
