One of Batmans greatest foes in the comics, Bane is not given justice in his appearance however, through his lips focing him into the look of a silly mexican wrestler.
The story was good, but would of benefited from another episode (2 parter) to allow viewers to see Banes true planning intelect as seen in knightfall. Although a much better representation of the character compared to Schumachers tame "reatarded" thing, Bane is his own man, with goals only of his own and should not be introduced as a mob bosses hired hand.
I did also, enjoy the allusion made back to knightfall, when Bane cradles Batman above his head- preparing to cause some spinal damage. This image showing how the shows team adapted from Batmans comic sources so professionally.moreless
