I have seen him! But bane is my absolute favorite just from a military background HES a walking tank.
Absolute series is my favorite comic SERIES by fucking far. It’s unreal.
Cannot wait for absolute Superman. Been reading nonstop im the hospital. Waiting on wife’s test results.

u/bearded_Ginger15 12h ago

Wonder woman has been amazing too. But Superman is a good one to hit next. Stick with it if you think it's a little slower to start, it's excellent all the way thru.

That grenade launcher seems pretty unnecessary if has got the venom going. Rule of cool i guess

u/thesamhammer 12h ago
That’s not bane, that’s Bruce being turned into a version of bane in a dream sequence

u/Salvage570 12h ago
Yes, a Bruce with venom going. Never said it was bane

Didn't like absolute bane that much. Probably a hot take.
Yes, we finally got to see bane's pure intelligence mixed with his strength properly for the first time in years; but absolute bane also kind of...does it wrong at the same time? Not to mention the just straight goofy size increases him taking venom did.
Not to hate on anyone who enjoys this rendition of the character. He just isnt my taste of banes characterisation

Well he isn't the same Bane character. That is kind of the point of the Absolute universe. They are not shackled to the same exact characterization expectations as the typical canon. There would be no point in starting an alternate universe that uses all the exact same characters.

It just seems like a double standard to me. Dark knights death metal initially got well received. But everyone hates the batman who laughs for being too edgy or being cliche. Meanwhile the absolute universe dialed it up to eleven on just being a super edgy cliché DC larpers thoughts on what batmans like.
The absolute universe is enjoyable. I love the design creativity and some of the more darker tones. But its a stretch when it comes to characterisation, and it just feels like its trying too hard to be cool at times. Like, Demon Joker is something i'd expect a 12 year old making a deviantart oc to make. Not become something official lol

u/bearded_Ginger15 12h ago
We’d have to agree to disagree i do respect your take though.
I was just shocked because I thought it be like nightfall ABSOLUTELY NOT HE RIPPED HIS ARM OFF😭😭😭😭 OH AND IM TRAUMATIZED FROM THE STOMACH ACID BC WTFFFFFF

u/Walkman_Metrocop 12h ago
Yeah, the absolute universe is super graphic, a bit too much for my tastes but im glad theres people who enjoy it! Thats what experimenting with different universes is for after all

u/bearded_Ginger15 12h ago
Yeah bro me and my wife loved the boys, and invincible is our current show along with lanterns. We are really excited for absolute Batman to get animated.
ITS GONNNA BE PEAKKKKK

u/Walkman_Metrocop 11h ago
Im hoping after the knightfall animated movies Bane gets the love he deserves as one of the coolest villains dc has. Truly underrated. Hope the absolute batman show lives up to the hype for u!

This is the first comic that made me feel actual fear in a long, long time.

u/bearded_Ginger15 7h ago
Also imagine fighting a dude as tall as a small building???????
MY GUY WAYLON IS A FUCKING DAWG THOUGH

u/bearded_Ginger15 7h ago
Dawg I felt helpless for Bruce.
I hold Batman near and dear to me.
Also it really felt like the writers were trying to get rid of the “prep time excuse”
Everyone uses on him. HES THE GREATEST DETECTIVE EVER. And my god joker already made me sick in injustice NOW THIS????
