10 Characters Who Have Defeated Bane

2. Damocles

Batman Bane Rebirth
DC Comics

In Bane: Conquest the eponymous 'hero' - and I use the term very lightly - discovers a freighter full of mercenary soldiers just off the coast of Gotham. Also inside said freighter is a cache of nuclear warheads. Bane, in a fit of impetuousness, attacks a warehouse he has been directed to after interrogating some of the local criminals.

It is here that he fights Damocles, a dapper looking lad, who actually manages to sever Bane's Venom supply - theorizing the drug as some kind of a steroid, growth hormone, or possibly containing Stem Cells. It doesn't seem to bother Bane much though, as he proceeds to hurl Damocles away with ease.

Damocles then orders his men to hit Bane with a gigantic taser which stuns the luchadore-dressed pseudo-hero and allows him to be captured.
