10 Worst Things Bane Has Ever Done

6. Letting The Secret Six Die

The Secret Six series showed us a version of Bane that is arguably him at his most well-intentioned - as, although he's still totally a bad guy, he's one that cares deeply for his teammates, and shows a clear moral code that has him protecting the innocent just as much as murdering the guilty.

But, as the final issue of the Secret Six revealed, Bane had ulterior reasons for letting the team fight to their death in the comic's final issue - with it being revealed in the very last page that he has orchestrated their demise on purpose in order to get rid of any sentimental attachments to be able to go after Batman - yet again.

It's kind of heartbreaking, as Bane had spent so long growing close to the team - and seemingly genuinely willing to do anything for them - that the prospect of him having wanted them to die seems a complete spit in the face of all of these sweet moments.
