Nice to see bane get a 3 minute expert  
 
edit: wow I got the quest on my first try

 Here's the odd thing about Bane, how is it that he just cause a break out at Arkham, but had to fake his death to escape the prison he was born in?
It looks as if they pulled a Venom(Eddie Brock) with Bane in the comics. They made a terrible enemy into an ally. They are both big and beefy characters. I wonder if that's just a coincidence.

As always, incredible video editing work on this. Really well done. Must be a pain to gather all those images from older comics.

Once again Joey does an amazing job at editing (It was especially fun to see Tony behind bars!) 
 
Bane is a character I only knew as a brute strength Batman enemy. I didn't know there was so much to his character! 
I always learn form the features! Thanks Tony!

Didn't know Bane was behaving O_o

Awesome! I really needed this! Keep 'em comin'!

I am now an expert on Bane

Awesome choice 3min expert!

Nice! Now i know enough about him to judge bane's interpretation in TDKR

so....bane died and was brought back in thelazarous pit or simply healed?

Awesome! Another great vid from G-Man & Co.

Bane is one of the many, many, many reasons to read Secret Six. Bane and Scandal Savage make one of the most odd yet compelling and genuine "couples" in comic books today.  

The idea of Bane joining the Secret Six sounded a little weird when I first heard about it, but putting him in this surrogate father/daughter relationship with Scandal was a stroke of genius on Gail Simone's part, which helped Bane integrate the team seamlessly, as though he'd always been there.
 
It's a shame that most people only know him as "The Man Who Broke the Bat", because he's much more interesting now than he ever was in the Bat books.

Nice video. Still over 3 minutes though...  
 
Joking! 

nice

Ordered Knightfall of of Amazon on Friday. Hopefully it will ship soon. This makes me even more excited for it!

Bane better break Batman's back in the movie!!

This whole pseudo redemption is weak especially since the video forgot he mercilessly killed Judomaster just because. It's weak because rather than treat him like a real villain to Batman because writers could not make it work more than once so he became what he is now which far less impressive than when he first showed up. I would love for someone with gritty writing like Brian Azzarello  write him and bring him back to his old self.

definitly best 3min expert ever

I like these three minute experts more than the other videos. Unscripteds were awesome, but not the same anymore.  
Where can i read Banes Origin?

You know, until I started reading Secret Six,all I knew about Bane was from the Batman movie. I can now clearly see that that's not who he really is and I think bane is an awesome character. So yeah, this helped.

" @johnny spam:  Like many things in comics, I view the Judomaster murder as apocryphal.  Although on further consideration, I believe one of the truly interesting things about Bane is his unique, literally self made morals.  He had no parents to teach him right from wrong.  I'd argue to this day he is still figuring that out... 
 
Edit:  I see   entropy_aegis beat me to it.  But yeah. "

Awesome.

" Love how these videos are having a unique pattern with my activities on this site. "

I had known there was a lot more to Bane's character than what was in the movie, but I had no idea just how complex his character was. 
This was really cool and informative.

There was also some cool/weird interactions when Bane was with Ra's and Talia. But again, it's a matter of trying to cut down the history to somewhere sorta close to three minutes.

Well gee.  Thanks for spoiling my expectations of what Bane was all about.  Here I thought he defeated Batman because he was incredibly strong.  Turns out, it was because he was clever and incredibly strong.  (Wearing him down before the fight.)  When Batman wasn't tired from recapturing all of Arkham's villains he managed to defeat Bane.  Illusions have been shattered.

excellent expert. well done

I'm going to wind up linking this to so many people who ask for Bane info leading up to the movie. Thanks.

Best comic vine Series.

Banes not as much a one note character as I thought he was.  Great 3 Minute Expert.
I bet he will straddle the fence of good and evil in the movie too.  Perhaps he will be somewhat inspired by Batman in the movie like the Joker was, but this time trying to do good instead of chaos.

awesome video 
 
i hope they do a good job on Bane in the next movie

Did a blog on Bane. Glad to see that ComicVine did an "Expert" video on this.

Great 3-min Expert.  I haven't really kept up with Bane past Knightfall, so this was definitely something that showed the level of depth they've added to the character since that time.

Great to see the return of 3min expert! Now all we need now is for unscripted to make a comeback.

great 3 min expert show how much research joel  schumacher didnt do for batman and robin hope nolan gives bane justice

Anyone that says Bane should have a costume resembling the ones he wore in the comic book series for the next Batman  is just kidding themselves.

Interesting argument I just cannot see someone with such violent murderous actions being forgiven by Batman as a villain he was unique he was equal in intelligence and strength and even from what I understand now he is still not the mastermind he was then there was much brilliance in Bane being an evil Doc Savage it is a shame it is not used anymore.

" Nice to see bane get a 3 minute expert  "

I'm pretty pleased with this video. I didn't know a lot a lot about Bane before. :) And I'm happy with the choice of Bane as the next villain. I'm sure Nolan'll do him justice, and give him the brains and the brawn.
 
The thing that was bugging me at first-- the ethnicity of the actor, as much as I like the actor-- I realise now isn't as bad as it seemed. I'd only realised recently that Bane wasn't (at least not completely) Hispanic. It's still a little iffy, but at least it's not a completely Hispanic character being cast with a Caucasian.
 
To clarify: I think it'd have been great if he was cast with a Hispanic actor-- there are great ones, and it'd be nice to get some more diversified representation-- but at least it's not... he's not pulling an MNS (like with The Last Airbender). At least the character's not supposed to be completely Hispanic. :|a

By the time he actually fought...

...  Batman didn't lose to Bane, in my opinion it was bad writers and or DC's desire for headlines. " 

IMO, that's why Bane gets the points.  Batman wins and takes out everything from brutes to geniuses, super-villains to Superman because of one thing: tactics. (well, cool toys and training helps as well).  Bane defeated the master of tactics by using tactics.  If Bane had just caught Batman on a bad day and beat him, then yeah, that'd be pretty lame, but he created Joker-worthy chaos then put a Ra’s al Ghul-worthy beat down on him.  When he subsequently fought more 'straight up', he fared about as well as Batman would trading even punches with Wonder Woman.

Bane is pretty bad ass.

i definitely see a back breaking in batman's near future.
