I believe that Bane is the best villain that there is. That is just me, and I’m fully aware of the fact that you guys have your own opinions. But I wanted to shed some light on some good reasons as to why he is the best pick of them all. Just think about it for a second.
Joker has always been the best and superior to Batman the most among the fans, by manipulation and mind games. He is just not the greatest at the whole fists thing. Him being so mentally unstable makes him one of the greatest villains of all time but that doesn’t mean Bane isn’t great either.
I know, Joker is great, Riddler is great, but they just cannot match The Batman’s fists, atleast not without a weapon. Bane can do that, and at the same time as a brilliant tactician, almost like Ra’s Al Ghul, with some differences.
` I think that the greatest villain should be the one that can fight the hero with both his mind and his fists, not just one or the either. The difference between Bane and Ra’s was that Ra’s was a man hell bent on cleansing the filth. Bane was just a pissed off villain that wanted the Batman, and knew how to get him, and what’s the best about him? The fact that he can easily pull the strings and come off as the puppet at the same time.
As “The Dark Knight Rises”, I believe in Nolan, Bale, Hardy, Bane, Dent...whatever you want to call it, the point is, is that I believe. I know for a damn fact that this Bane will make all of us speechless rather we want to admit it or not. This Bane will make us sit back and think…WHOA!! Just like scarecrow and joker did.(well, for me anyways…but I know can’t be the only one.)
In conclusion, Ra’s Al Ghul was a man obsessed with a clean world, Scarecrow was a mind-freak looking for cheap thrills, Two-Face was a lost soul condemned to revenge, and The Joker was a unstable, psychotic nightmare that just wanted to see everything in front of his face burn. Maybe Bane can be the brilliant tactician the “Broke the Bat.” Some don’t want it that way, but I’m excited about it and as that goes peeps…We’ll just have to see.
