And keeping with Nolan's favourite scarecrow, that aforementioned sequence involving Dr. Crane and The Chechen acting as a pain in the Bat-buttocks for The Dark Knight one film earlier is actually subtly alluded to in the 2012 follow-up.

As you likely remember, said opening stages of The Dark Knight saw Bale's Bat being viciously attacked by dogs, an occurrence that leads to some upgrades to his iconic armour later down the road.

But said alterations still couldn't change the fact that these big pups more than left a mark on The Caped Crusader, with a very much visual scar being spotted on his left arm in The Dark Knight rises as Wayne prepares to get back out into the world.
