Bane (DC)

Bane is a supervillain in the DC comics and a major antagonist of the Batman series.

He is a recurring nemesis of the superhero Batman, known for being augmented by a drug called Venom. He is most known as the supervillain who "broke that bat", as Bane once managed to break Batman's spine. Bane continues to be one of Batman's most physically and psychologically formidable foes, to the point that he essentially becomes the caped crusaders' archenemy and primary antagonist during the DC Rebirth line of comics.

He was created by Chuck Dixon and Graham Nolan.
