Is This The Worst Animated Version of Bane? | The Batman (2004)
2004’s The Batman had the tough job of following Batman: The Animated Series—one of the most beloved Batman adaptations ever. While The Batman took a fresh approach to its villains, not every reinvention landed. One of the most underwhelming was Bane.

From his comic book origins to his animated portrayals in Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series, and The Batman, this video explores why Bane’s animated versions often fall short.
